"Man Box"

My 4 year old walks by & says "Mom I like your man box". It was so funny. When my mom saw it she thought it was for Thanksgiving, Whatever! Anyway I wanted to make a raffle prize for my workshop tomorrow & thought this guy would get some attention. I used the large scallop circle die, coluzzle, & 1", 3/4", 1/4" circle punches. I think his hat top measure3 1/2 x 2 1/2, brim is 4 1/2 x 1, band is 3 1/2 x 1/2. Have a great weekend!!
Smiles & Blessings,

  3. I love your story, but I guessed a Leprechaun right away!! He is adorable, Mercedes ... just like all of your projects.

    I was wondering if you could provide the basic dimensions for the box ... e.g., size of the cardstock and where to score? I'd love to make one of these!!

    I am definitely purchasing your Spring punch art tutorial ... I get paid on Friday, and I will send you my Pay Pal info then. I can't wait to give that project a try as well! :)

  4. Hi Judy!
    I totally forgot to measure it before I gave it away. But I think it was a piece of 10X5 scrored at 3 1/2 on each 5"end & 1" along each 10 "side. It wasn't a full box but kinda just a U shape & I used sticky strip to attach that to the face. Hope that kinda makes sense.
    Smiles,
