Minions are everywhere!!! I’m not sure whether it’s the Pharrell William’s “Happy” song, but minions are definitely all the rage at the moment. There are lots of ways to make minions – circles, ovals, owl punch, card front … But the one I like the best is inspired by Linda Higgin’s clever use of the Circle Flip Thinlit Die. I wanted to try it out. And then I wanted to share it with you so the papercraft world can be filled with minions!!! Kelly x
Supplies:

Such a cute card Kelly, not having small children anymore I don’t have much need for kids cards but this one is so darn cute.
Just love this card . My grandson loves the minions so I will have a go at making it . Thank you for the instructions on how to make it.
You’re most welcome Joy. Minions are very popular at the moment!
So clever. Thanks for the picture tutorial.
You’re most welcome Beverly. Kelly x
This is really cute! Nice job!
Thanks Betsy!
Hi Kelly just put together your minion card – what did you do for the inside of the card? At this time, it’s looking rather strange when I open it up. Cute card though!
Hi Dot, you could continue the black band all the way across and add in more blue for the overalls. I’ve done both and it looks great either way. Kelly x
Thank you Kelly – will play with it!
Ayuda, me encanta esta, quiero hacerla, pero no logro entender como el circulo del ojo, se mueve o parece que esta independiente del la tarjeta.
Hi Jeimy, The card uses the Stampin’ Up! Circle Thinlit as the base. Hope this helps you to understand. Kelly x
Hola Jeimy, La tarjeta utiliza Hasta el Stampin ‘! Círculo Thinlit como la base. Espero que esto le ayuda a comprender. Kelly x
Hi I love your Minion card with the Circles but don’t see the instructions. Any chance you can at least say how large of paper you used and how you folded it it you can post the video. Thank you.
