This weeks word is:
fire-cured: cured over open fires in direct contact with the smoke
My twisted mind thought of fire-cured ham. I decided to make a punched piggy. His head is a circle that I trimed to match the panel. I used a corner punch to make the ears. I had to search for the perfect little button. I added wiggle eyes. and an assorment of buttons to finish it off. What do you think Kelly?

What a clever idea - your punched pig is just so sweet, MariLynn. I must admit I was thinking along the line of hams or kippers. Hmmm - have to see what I can come up with. You seem to be have been pretty inspired - but Kelly certainly doesn't make it easy.
