Are you getting ready for Thanksgiving? This year, we’re going out of town to visit my parents. We’re looking forward to spending time with them. Meanwhile, I saw this cute turkey card and thought it would be fun to make. I made the turkey using punches! Isn’t that fun?
I used the 1 3/8 circle punch for the body – chocolate chip
3/4 circle for the head – more mustard
two 1/4 circle for the buttons – real red
double circle for the eyes – basic black
3/4 square trimmed down for the hat – basic black
Boho Blossoms flowers for the feet and a petal for his beak – pumpkin pie
Scallop Punch for his feathers – real red, old olive, and chocolate chip
To fold the scallops: 1. Count five scallops and fold that portion of the circle down 2. Turn the circle over, and fold in half to form a crease in the middle for reference, then unfold. 3. fold the flat edge down from each side so the folded edges line up with the middle crease (similar to making a paper airplane fold).
