Let's get started with one of the most popular - Pikachu!
(HERE WE HAVE pikachu.jpeg)
Pikachu's body is cut from a large scalloped oval - it gives me an even shape when I trim that way. His head is cut from a teapot, while his arms and ears are trimmed from small birch leaves. His
feet come from small suns. I cut his tail, using Lightening Scissors, but you could do it with regular scissors. Be sure to add the details, like the red cheeks outlined in black and the brown on the tail. Also, with many of the
Pokemon in lighter colors, you might want to outline the body parts with a very fine black pen - it makes them look more animated. |
HERE WE HAVE poke ball.jpg
This ball is the easiest of all! Punch one red, one white and one black circle, about 1" works well, though this might be fun with a circle cutter, too! Hold all three circles together, cut across making the cut that goes below the black band. Cutting all three makes the fitting easy since everything is even. Then, cut the top of the black band from the black circle only. Layer them together in order. Then punch a 5/16" black circle and a 1/4" white circle. Draw on the small black circle on the white one and the white dots on the red top. These white rounded dots are what suggests a really round shape. |
HERE WE HAVE Staryu.jpg This is one of the easiest to make. Punch a large star in brown, then a small sun in yellow. Trim the small sun so that only five points are left as shown. then add a 1/4" red circle in the center. |

| HERE WE HAVE Starmie.jpg This is basically made the same way as the
Staryu. Punch 2 stars from light purple and trim the center circle into a rough hexagon with small scissors. |
HERE WE HAVE parasect.jpg Parasect's shell is cut from a large heart. Even off the semicircles at the top and cut a slit in the hear to tuck the pieces into. It makes a more three dimensional creature. His body is based on a half of a medium heart. His legs are made by punching a medium sun, cutting off rays so that you have four left, folding it in half and gluing in onto the back of the half heart. His front claws are trimmed from small birch leaves and his eyes are 1/8" circles. I drew the spots onto his back with a gold gel pen. |
HERE WE HAVE goldeen.jpg Goldeen is at its best with its drawn in details. The body is made from a large balloon. Her tail fin is made from 3 large birch leaves, while her back fin is another large birch leaf peeking up from behind. Her front fin is a small birch leaf. I simply cut a triangle of paper to make her horn. You can follow the patterns I drew on for color on her back - I used a Zig Pure Orange Writer and an Apricot Writer.

| HERE WE HAVE gastly.jpg Gastly is a punched from a large circle. Then I cut a curved wedge out of him for his mouth and backed it with orange. I drew in fangs with a white gel pen, outlined in black. His eyes are a small heart cut in half . The detail around his eyes are drawn in with an orange gel pen. His
eerie tail is made by punching large suns from blue gray vellum and trimming them. |
HERE WE HAVE polywag.jpg Polywag's body is a large balloon with a 3/4" circle in white on top of it. The black spiral has to go the right direction to make Pokemon experts happy. His eyes are 1/4" black circles, with the details drawn on in white. his mouth is a mini heart. The legs are straight pieces of paper with small ovals at the end |
HERE WE HAVE diglett.jpg Diglett is a harmless little creature made by trimming a large bell. large suns have been trimmed to show the grass around him and the details on his face are drawn on with a black pen, a white gel pen and an opaque pen. |

HERE WE HAVE dugtrio.jpg Dugtrio is made the same way as
Diglett, but with three heads and happy expressions drawn on their faces.
|
HERE WE HAVE oddish.jpg Oddish's body is made from a large circle, with eyes from 1/8" red circles. His mouth is half of a small red oval. His head is an attractive arrangement of large birch leaves. the legs are made as they were for
Polywag. |
HERE WE HAVE jigglypuff.jpg Jigglypuff is so innocent looking. His body is made from a large
circle. His arms and ears are small hearts cut in half. His little feet are small ovals and his eyes are layered 5/16" and 1/8" circles. His little hair curl is made from a small balloon. This is one figure that really benefits from the black outlines and little touches of white on his green eyes. His mouth is only
drawn on. |

| HERE WE HAVE clefairy.jpg Clefairy's body is made from a large balloon. His legs are small ovals and his arms are cut from fat small tulips. His tail and forelock are both made by putting a spiral on top of a circle. His ears are made from small birch leaves. All face details are drawn on with black pens and a white gel writer. |
HERE WE HAVE weedle.jpg Weedle is made
from a 1" circle and then 3 5/8" circles and then 4 1/2" circles. The smaller circles have 1/8" circles added to the, while his nose is a 1/4" circle. His tail and his horn are trimmed from small stars.
