2. Draw the shapes onto the foam rubber and cut out. Cut the bodies from the double-layered self-adhesive foam rubber and the small body parts from the foam rubber, apply a thin layer of the white glue onto the foam for the small body parts and then carefully shake on some glitter and leave to dry.
