Paper Doily Ballerina

I made this card for my friend Sue,because she and I have been known to dance in the front yard for my toddler grandson. It just cracks him up. The neighbors probably get a chuckle too as they look at two grannies dancing as they hum their own tune. The card base is Pool Party cut at 41/4" and scored at 51/2". The ballerina's circular border was cut from the outside edge of the doily. Her skirt was half of the inner circle of the doily. Her bodice,and feet were made with the Heart to Heart punch, The arms were made with large oval punch. The face,hair, and legs were hand cut. Her body was made fromBlushing Bride. Glimmer paper was used for the bodice, shoes,and earrings. The hair was cut from a scrap of Early Espresso. The banner was stamped from the Take It To Heart stamp set. Happiness form the Loving Thoughts set was stamped onto the banner and then it was cut out and adhered below the ballerina. The background of the ballerina's circle is Whisper White card stock that has been embossed with Perfect Polka Dots folder.
