What an adorable project! You gals have such clever ideas. And, the headband (and model) is adorable!! Do you sell these craft kits on your website? If not, how can I get one (or three!)

A few of you were interested in the dimensions for this Make & Take.

Here's the scoop:

-Punch a 2" scallop circle punch for the base of the hat. We used our gingham cardstock in Grass.
-Using foam tape, stick a mini Reese's PB cup upside down on the base and then stick another cup on top of it.
-Using a piece of the cardstock 4 1/4" x 1 1/4", wrap the candy and secure with Scor Tape.
-The top of the hat is a 1 1/8" circle punch affixed to the top of the candy with a little Scor Tape.
-The black cardstock band is 4 1/4" x 3/4". We stamped our sentiment in Champagne Encore Metallic ink and used Scor Tape to affix around the base of the hat.
-The buckle is our new Chiffon Yellow cardstock. Punch a 1/2" square and then go back over the hole the punch left and frame it with a 3/4" square punch. You are left with a buckle frame that we attached with roller adhesive.

Happy crafting!
