Hexagon Shaped box using Darling Dinos

Hello all!  I have a very fun treat box for you today.  I've made a box using the hexagons from Meant to Bee dies.  The measurements were a bit challenging, but once I figured those out, they go together pretty easy.  I hope you are inspired to give making them a try.  Be sure to watch the video replay for some tips and tricks on how to easily put these boxes together.   You will find it over on my YouTube.  channel.

Hexagon Shaped birthday card with Darling Dinos

 For today's project I've used some new dies by Stampin' Up! to make a hexagon shaped birthday card for my youngest grandson.  He'll be seven in March and is absolutely obsessed with dinosaurs so when Stampin' Up! released the Darling Dinos bundle in January, I knew I would have to have it.  Thanks for taking a look.  To see how I've put this card together, there is a video replay over on my YouTube channel.
