Uncle Sam Curvy Keepsake Treat Box
The Curvy Keepsake Die by Stampin' Up is retired, but it's still one of my favorite die sets to use!
Here I made a Fourth of July treat box. Cardstock colors are Real Red; Basic White; Night of Navy; Daffodil Delight; Pacific Point (eyes); and Petal Pink.
The hat is a rectangle with 3/8" red stripes glued on and 1/4" blue strip for the hat brim. I round the corners using a circle punch.
Eyes are 3/4" white circles, 1/2" pacific point circle; black hole punch and a dot of white from a white paint marker. Nose is 1/2" circle.
The fun beard is actually made from a flower punch! I filled him with Jolly Ranchers, because July 4th is "melt an egg on the sidewalk" day and I didn't want kisses to melt! Wouldn't he be a cute addition to your 4th of July place settings?
If you want to order some already made Uncle Sam's - mailed flat and you fill with your own candy, check out my Etsy shop!
