At Leadership I received a swap from Cathy Roy that uses the Top Note die and punches to create a puppy. She cased it from someone else – now I’m casing it – it goes on and on! A good thing! 
I created the base by folding a piece of 4 1/4 x 8 1/2 Soft Suede in half and placing it on the Top Note die so that it doesn’t completely cut off the top. That gives me a card base. The ears are another Top Note cut a little less than in half. The eyes are circle punches (1″, 3/4″, and 1/2″) and the nose is a Round Tab punch. The nose is a heart from the Heart Trio punch and the mouth is the small oval punch. Isn’t he cute?
You could change him into a lot of different animals – hmmmmm – you might get to see a few more! Enjoy! Hugs, Fran
Super cute, Fran!! I know I would have never thought of something like this myself! It’s so great when people like you share!! 😉
