ballerina tutorial

woohoo here we go punch out 2 scallop circles from card stock vellum. cut along the dips in the scallops into the middle but NOT right through (or her tutu will fall apart and she will be left standing in her undies lol) glue together (after you have fluffed them up a bit) to the lavendar lace scallop circle card.get 2 word window legs and the squat heart. cut the heart down the middle glue onto the legs attach to back of tutu and arrange your legs how you want your ballerina to pose get bits for head use circle punch to cut out fringe from butterfly image stick blush blossom circle to bottom of choc chip circle. add fringe.add crescent and tiny heart to make tiara. add small choc chip circle to make bun at back of head get the rest of the word windows and long heart stick arms onto heart first then neck. then stick head down. then add dimensionals it should look like this. if you want your ballerina to have some more cleavage then move the ends of the word windows closer in and you will get a bit of boobie cleavage happening lol it should look like this when all stuck together if you are not making the mutant kind hahahaha finally get out some pens and draw in a face and some ballet strings so her shoes don't fall off phew! there we go easy peasy i now expect to see ballerinas all over the place now. if you make one please send us a link or a photo of your attempt so i can go "oh wow that is awesome" okies cheers ears

i have been punching some ballerinas

well not real ones just the paper kind of course..... back to the topic at hand and it is all about ballerinas. I made some a while ago and have had a bit more of a play since then. I got everyone to make some at our Sale-a-bration charity fundraiser last weekend. Hi if you are checking me out from that-please say hi!! Here is the punch sheet from that showing what bits of each punch you needed in each colour. I hope that made it easy for everyone...well no one had mutant looking ballerinas so it must have been ok hahahahaha I have used Lavendar lace, blush blossom, Chocolate chip and vellum card stock. and just so you know the love hearts are wrong wrong wrong. i cut out the wrong one-you need to cut out the squat one for the shoes and the longer one for the body I will get around to changing it i promise and here are the punches you needed (which you can, of course, buy them all from me because you know you totally NEED them all right now) please say hi and let me know how your ballerinas went cheers ears
