lol maybe they could use some tissue paper to fill in the skeletons. These look tricky. I flop stuff on a regular basis - mostly food, but my family eats it anyway :)
Oh dear...that's one of the better NAILED IT! projects I've seen lately :) lol! Like Dawn mine are mostly food - my family eats it anyway, while complaining about how I'm trying to kill them!
Happy Easter, Pam :)
