InspireINK March Blog Hop - Make A Box

Nigezza Creates aka Gez, Independent Stampin' Up® Demonstrator 


Thank you for visiting my blog, I really do appreciate it. Today I am hopping with the InspireINK Blog Hop. Our theme this month is 'Make a box'. Well I make boxes often so i decided to make a special box and they don't come much more special than the impossible box.  I have made one before but never for a tutorial.  I recently had a blog post where I showed a 2"x2"x3" impossible box, this one is bigger, 2"x2"x5".
