How fun is this? I had an email from a sweet blog reader named Annie that asked if I could somehow figure out how to make Pablo from the Backyardigans with punches! This was so exciting for me! I am always up for a challenge and as so pleased I can help!
Ellie emailed me a photo of her sweet little "almost" two year (Gabi)old all snuggled up with Pablo and I just knew I had to figure it out! So, here's what I came up with. The only thing I found hard was the colour of Pablo. I don't watch the show (yet) so I'm not sure if he is more purple or blue but this gives the general idea!
Hope you like it! Here's a video as well:
Thanks for the tutorial! I made a card with it.
