Easter Candy Box Tutorial - Create a Critter

My girlfriend, Jearise, talked me into making a tutorial video on how to make this cute 3D candy box using Create a Critter.   I must admit it didn't take much to be talked into it. I think the entire conversation was

ME: Maybe I will make a new video with this??
Jearise: I think you should.
ME: Ok, I will make it!

Haha, so here you are - my newest video tutorial.

I did go into the settings of my cricut and changed the UNITS to 1/10 vs 1/4.

Would love some feedback on my video - the good, the bad and the ugly. Wait, no bad or ugly... :)

Oval is cut at:
3 @ 4.7
1 @ 4.5
1 @ 4.4

Chick and cracked egg is cut at 3
Strips are cut at 2" and 1 1/2" scored at the 1/2"

Thanks for watching ~~Tee

    These are so pretty. Everybody likes getting out of the home for a celebration or a function. Even in the several weeks and several weeks major up to a unique event, sometimes the expectation is just as interesting as the event itself. I wish they still made them like that. I wish you are having a amazing wedding. London Fancy Box
