Turn the card so the bodice of your ballerina tutu is upside down. Paint your little ballerina's fingers and half of the pad of their palm pink or whatever colour you would like the tutu to be. You do not want the colour covering the thumb or you will not get the ruffles for your tutu.

Place the hand on the card, leaving behind the handprint. You can place a couple of times to get more ruffles.

Let the handprint dry and then decorate with ribbon, sequins, glitter or whatever your little ballerina fancies.
