I fall in love easily with new Punch Art critters and this little guy has stolen my heart! He's so easy to put together, using all circles (plus antennas). Get creative with the antennas. You could use a butterfly die cut like I did OR you could use a section from some of your leafy, branchy, scrolly, or swirly dies or punches. Look closely at your dies and punches. Sometimes even the negative pieces, that would normally get thrown out, will work for tiny little elements like this.
I decided to alternate his body segments between plain solid cardstock and thin glitter foam. You could also use patterned paper with a very small print. You could make him in larger sizes for larger projects too. Just use one circle (for the head) ever-so-slightly larger than the rest. Googly eyes also come in many sizes so you can find ones to fit any size caterpillar you decide to make. If you want to keep it all paper, just cut out white circles for the size of eyes that you want and smaller black circles for the pupils. Head into the craftroom and let's get Craftie!
