K..those are all adorable but your McQueen is amazing!! I attempted something similar last year but yours is WAY better :) Thanks for sharing so many great ideas!!
ReplyDeleteLove the post. I love using cardboard boxes for all manner of things. A couple of Hallowe'ens ago I made my son a Thomas the Tank Engine costumer out of several cardboard boxes. I must post some pics of him on my blog. It's had a lot of admiring comments but sadly it no longer fits him. He's been asking for a new one though. Time to get the glue gun heating up I think.
