Hippo Punch

 

Hippo  Hi,  My video today demonstrates how to make this Hippo. 

After making the animals for the boxes I decided that they would also make darling bookmarks for kids. Can’t you see making one for every animal?

Here’s a list of the punches for the Hippo.

Word Window

Large & Small Oval

1 3/8, 1/4 & 1/8 Circle Punch

Or use Double Circle for the 1/8

Matchbox-animals

The box is made with the Big Shot Die Cut Machine and I used the Matchbox Die.  I used the Textures Plate #4 to emboss each box.

Cardstock used:  Basic Gray, Whisper White and Basic Black

Here’s the video … 

  

Enjoy!

  1. Angie,
    These are adorable. I love the video and really like how you give the dimensions outside the video so we can run a copy of them. I’m gonna make one of these bookmarks, soon. How did you attach them to the paperclips? Thanks for another great idea.

  2. Very cute Angie! I originally watched the video with no sound, and I thought you were making a donkey! *giggle* But I see the hippo too (maybe if the ears are shorter?).
    Love your quickstick thingie too.

  3. I absolutely love your videos and how you keep your “oops” in them. It makes it seem more realistic for me to try, too. I always make oops! Also love to hear you giggle to yourself. You are just having so much fun! Thanks for the fun ideas….I think I’ll use the punches for the kids at my daughters’ birthday party!

  4. He is just too cute. I have also started a little book of my punched creations-totally copying you from seeing it last year. What a great idea for kids. I am always looking for little things like this sine I work in a school.

  5. What a hoot! Those are really cute! I think it looks more like a donkey than a hippo but I like it either way!
    I don’t know how I would ever make it without something to pick up those tiny pieces. I too want to know where you got your Quick Stick. I googled but could not find it.

  7. To the fans: Quickutz makes the quick stick. Angie: This is yet another great video. The little hippo was so cute. I like the paper clip idea too and wondered how it was attached. Also, where do you get your large paper clip bookmarks?

  8. Hi Angie, I have been enjoying your videos tonight and gathering ideas for a fundraiser. The bear and hippo book mark are great, how do you attach the paper clip? Thank you for all the beautiful ideas. Heather
