dora the explorer

dora is a bit of a favourite at our place

miss 4 especially adores her

why?

i have no idea as she drives me bonkers!!!

but she asked me for a dora card and a dora cake AND dora cupcakes AND dora toys AND...AND....

it is her birthday this week so i will indulge her a bit

it's not every day you turn 4 after all :)

 so here is dora in punch art as a card that i will attach to a canvas to put on her wall.

the background of the card is big top birthday dsp

the ribbon is not stampin up (just in case you were wondering lol)

 dora is made using the following punches

full heart -hair, sleeves

xl oval-face, tummy

ornament-t-shirt middle

word window-arms, legs, backpack straps, nose, eyes (white), shoes, sox, neck

itty bitty shapes circle-eyes (brown)

3/4" circle-mouth

spring blossoms-fingers, shoelaces

boho blossoms-sox

1 1/4" square-shorts

stamp set used is happiest birthday wishes (a hostess set)

which has a whole heap of great birthday sayings perfect for birthday cards 

 i added a teeny bit of white gel pen to the eyes to make her have her special little sparkle

 close up of the fingers using one of the flowers from the spring blossoms punch (now retired unfortunately). just cut 1 petal off, then miss one 

and then cut out 2 more and you get a hand...

of sorts anyways lol

 

boho blossoms flower for the top of her sox.

two word windows placed on top of each other 

and then petals from a spring blossoms punch for the shoe laces

cheers ears

ps i have made the type a bit bigger to read-let me know if this works for whoever is reading it:>
