I don't think I've ever seen a paper-pieced racoon before, but the inspiration came from the Cat's Pajamas stamps.
The head and tail were done with a heart and the body and legs were done with the big oval punch.
I would have preferred to give him two almond-shaped eyes, but just as I finishing him, I found out I only had one of those left! :( He probably looks even more up to something with his disproportionate eyes, though.
The tag is from last year's Spring catalogue die-cut series. I still have quite a few left, so I'm trying to put them to good use. I handwrote the sentiment with markers on it.
I tell ya, it took a lot of willpower to leave the card as bare as it is. I think it is complete as is, but the impulse to add more was very strong...
