**Directions:**  
Cut four strips of two sided card stock using your Paper Cutter. Each strip should be 12 inches long and .75 inches wide.

Use your electronic die cutter to cut out an emoji of your choice. It should measure 3” wide. Be sure to cut out a dark  circle and adhere it to the back of your face using Mini Dots.

Place two strips at 90 degree angle from each other. Secure together with an Ultra-Thin Dot.

Fold each strip over each other to form an accordion shape. Secure the end with another Dot. Trim any excess edges off.  Repeat 3 more times. In total you should have 2 "arms" and 2 "legs."

Use wafer thin heart dies to cut out a heart and a scalloped heart in a contrasting colored paper. Write a special note on the heart before gluing it to the scalloped heart. 

Secure all the arms, legs, face and note to a box of Glue Dots using Removable Dots.

Watch your teacher smile with delight as you show appreciation…and help out with the classroom supplies in a fun way!
