My project, http://tiny.cc/90p59w looked fun until I saw your puppet.

I wish I could be there with my niece and nephew. We don't have anything like this in Vancouver right now.

Hey Alexandra,

That cardboard art looks awesome! I've wanted to try one of those - do you make the pattern yourself?

I'm not overly familiar with the west-coast animation scene, but maybe there are art schools or centres that off crafting opportunities?

We made our own patterns. It worked out pretty good.

There isn't much available for the little ones, so we have get creative on our own.

I am inspired by your puppets, but we'll try making sock rabbits first!
