This weekend is my daughter's dance recital so we are gearing up to get ourselves ready for that! She has been dancing for a long time and I do love to watch her perform on stage. Being a teenager it is hard to get her out the door on a weekly basis and getting her to dance class isn't always so easy. When I saw Kraftin' Kimmie's Angry Ballerina, well, let me just say I thought a teensy bit about her! At the end of the dancing year I always make a card and give a small gift to her teachers. I obviously had to use this one for her dance teacher this year! Of course, if I had to wear the costume this girl is wearing I'm not sure I would be so happy either!

I took a picture of the card and box separately so you could get a little closer look at each. I have to apologize for the paper lint on the acetate on my box, I didn't realize I hadn't removed it yet until it was too late. One of the downfalls of using acetate in the same space that you cut, fold and glue your paper.
Here's a close up of my colored image. This skirt was hard for me to figure out the shadows for, especially with the pinks I used. It's something I will pay closer attention to the next time I use this image.
