DCRU

I'm thrilled to have been selected a Guest DT at DCRU .

With the end of another school year and all the related activities, it’s always nice to give that special someone a gift in appreciation of all they’ve done for your child. I created this journal for a wonderful Dance instructor. It was so much fun to make.









Cut red cardstock approximately 5 ¾" x 5 ¾"
Cut white cardstock approximately 5 ¼" x 5"
Emboss white cardstock with Cuttlebug D’Vine Swirls embossing folder
Ink edges with Spun Sugar ink










Using the ballerina instructions on page 42 of the Cricut booklet,
Cut Body #1 at 4 ¾" from brown cardstock
Cut Body #1 again from offwhite cardstock (shift + body)
Cut Ballerina costume and shoes from black cardstock
Cut leggins from pink cardstock
Cut skirt and hair bows from darker shade of pink cardstock
Assemble ballerina
Add a little rouge to her cheeks with chalk














Type Dance on your computer, using a script font
Cut to 1" x 4" and ink the edges with Spun Sugar ink
Mat on pink cardstock




























Assemble your journal.



Supplies:
Spiral bound notebook of any size/style/color

The beauty of creating this journal is that you can use all the scraps you’ve been accumulating all while creating a one of a kind journal that anyone would love to receive.
