Sienna' Gift

Hi everyone!

I have the most adorable :"greats"  

that's what I call my great nieces and nephews!

Today I'm showing you what I made for one

of my greats.

I used a 5x7 canvas board, that I picked up at 

Hollo's Papercrafts.

I mixed some red and white 

acrylic craft paints

to make pink paint and 

painted the entire board with the pink.

I cut a ballerina with my Silhouette from black vinyl.
I used one of the dancers from the

"Ballerina Border" which I purchased from

The Silhouette Design Store

I also cut her name using the

Segoe Print font.

I used transfer tape to apply the vinyl to the painted

canvas board.

I then made a 'dress' for the ballerina.

For the dress, I used a strip of lace

and a piece of pink ribbon,

I doubled the lace to give it a bit of fullness.

I layered the pink ribbon on top of the edge of the

doubled lace and used a running stitch with white

thread along the length of the lace and ribbon.

I then pulled the thread to gather the top edge 

and secured it with a few stitches.

I tied a small bow with the same pink ribbon and 

used Ranger Multi Medium Matte

to glue the bow to the dress.

I also used the Multi Medium to glue the dress

to the dancer on the board.

I used the same glue to adhere 3 flowers to the 

hair of the ballerina

I framed it in a black frame.

I think this turned out adorable.

I hope Sienna loves this as much as I do.

I enjoyed creating it for her.

Thanks for stopping by today.

Come again soon.

Until then, I hope you'll 

create something.
