I guess you can use it on a recipe card for some yummy dish containing nuts...
He is an Unidentified Squirrel-ish Critter (USC)
Ignore the black scribble on his arm - after assembly I decided I should have outlined his parts - then I messed it up - so I stopped. You can use your IMAGINATION to ignore the goof and picture nice crisp outlines around his 'parts'. OK?
How to:
Tail – 2.5 inch circle – repunch with wide oval on a slant – make a few snips for “fur” look
Body – large oval trimmed a little on his back to thin at top
Belly – small oval next to small oval hole
Arms – oval ring (large oval around small oval hole)
Hands – circle little bitty punch pack at tips of modern label
Feet – narrow heart to heart trimmed
Face – 2 small ovals overlapped
Head (can hardly see) ¾ inch circle
Eye whites – small heart – cut notch in bottom
Eye blacks – marker or tiny owl circle
Eyelids – small circle itty bitty punch back cut in half
Nose – ¾ inch circle repunched with same (put on a post it note so you can hold on to it)
Teeth – ½ inch circle trimmed flat on 2 sides
Ear - small circle itty bitty punch pack – trimmed to point a bit
Nut – Just like his nose - ¾ inch circle repunched with same (put on a post it note so you can hold on to it) outline the edges “jaggedly” in black

*giggle* Ellen you are too funny! Love your USC - if he had two big saber-teeth he'd be exactly like the Ice Age squirrel, but of course he'd then need a much larger nut. Many chuckles happening here - thanks for sharing!
Could caption a card: "NUTS! I forgot it was your birthday!"
Hello Ellen!
I love your USC!
Not seeing a post for a couple of days I am concerned if you are well. Hopefully you are just still celebrating your birthday!
Wishing you a great weekend!
Hugs,
Barbara Diane
