Cut a strip of 2x12" white tulle.

Gather the strip into pleats and secure at the top with white wax linen thread to form the tutu.

Trim as needed.

Stamp the ballet dancer onto a 3.5x4.75" Aqua print panel with Amethyst ink. Note: Apply the ink to the stamp and then create streaks with the edge of the pad prior to stamping.
