Cubeecraft of Odette from The Swan Princess

I am paying respect to one of my favorite Princess movies, The Swan Princess. I have decided to create a few cubeecrafts featuring my favorite characters. I will start with Odette.

Although I never saw her as an ugly duckling, Ponce Derek did. But, inlike some other movies where beauty is everything, Prince Derek must learn that there is more to love than looks…and Odette is his teacher.

Cubeecraft Santa Hat

Christmas is coming and my cubeecrafts just didn’t look like they were in the spirit. That needed to change. So I created a Cubeecraft Santa hat.

This Hat will fit most of my cubeecrafts.
I say most cubeecrafts because some of them have crazy hair that will get in the way. For example Princess Tutu has difficulties with the Santa Hat.

Here you can see Walter strutting the Santa Hat, although he is far less than Jolly.

Remember this is a free printable to go with all the fun cubeecrafts you have been collecting and printing. Enjoy

Cubeecraft of Princess Tutu

When a duck becomes human to help find heart shard,you have an interesting story for a ballet…unless you have Anatidaephobia, which is the fear that somewhere, somehow, a duck is watching you. In that case, this show becomes a horror.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I actually enjoyed the show and thought I would create some cubeecrafts featuring the main characters.

To Build the Cubeecraft:
Materials needed:
Printer
Card stock
scissors
craft knife

Assembly instructions:

  1. Cut out each item along the outer solid black lines.
  2. Once each item has been cut, use an xacto knife to slice the white lines and red lines on each item.
  3. The black tabs have a white line that must be opened so that the corresponding tabs can slide in and lock in place.
  4. There are red lines on each side of the chest piece where the arms will slide in.
  5. There are also red lines where the body will slide into the head and the legs will slide into the body.

There is a white outline along the hair that needs to be cut. Be careful. If you cut more than just the white line the cubeecraft will not fold properly. When these white outlines are cut the hair will stick out once you fold the sides into a cube (see image for help).

The body portion extends further out to give the shape of a tutu. These tabs are smaller and more difficult to deal with but lock into place just as the cubee head does. Be very careful cutting open the holes for the tabs to slide into.

This cubeecraft takes a little more time to complete but is well worth the effort.

Cubeecraft of Fakir from the Anime Series Princess TuTu

Recently, in a moment of absolute boredom, I decided to watch an Anime Series known as Princess TuTu on Netflix. It was such a wonderful (sort of creepy) story. The music, art and story line fit perfectly together. Needless to say, I fell in love and decided some of the characters needed to be cubeecrafts that I could display. Fakir is the first one I completed.

Cubeecraft of Callie Briggs from the Swat Kats The Radical Squadron

Callie Briggs is the most needy character in the Swat Kats if you don’t count Feral and his constant need for chopper backup. T-Bone is also very attracted to her, and will leave his favorite TV show just to help her.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Her ears had to be 3D (like those of T-Bone and Razor) just to make them look right on the cubeecraft.

To attach the ears to the cubee:
To the left and right of Callie’s face there are three red lines that must be cut to create a hole that the ear tabs can slide through. The bottom tab will curve up into the ear to give it a more 3D look. Be very careful when cutting out the ears, they are very delicate. Once the ear is cut out fold along the black line. Slide the tabs into the holes and it will form an ear.

There are two red lines to the left and right of her face along the border that also have to be cut so that her hair will fit on her head.

To attach the tail, there is a white line on the back of the cubee that has to be cut for the tabs of the tail to slide into. Both tabs must slide into the hole created. When you cut out the tail be very careful. It must stay connected at the tip where you would fold it in half.

Say Hello to the Newest Disney Princess, Princess Leia

I would like to take a moment to welcome the newest Disney Princess, Princess Leia!

The Walt Disney Co. announced today (Oct 30, 2012) that they have bought LucasFilm for $4.05 Billion. With this purchase, Disney has already announced they will be making 3 more Star Wars Films, the first to be released in 2015.

You can watch part of the interview here:

I have to admit that I am excited and worried to see where Disney will be taking Star Wars. I realy hope there will not be more like Jar Jar.
All I can do is wait and watch to see what exciting features Disney will bring. πŸ˜€
