Print

  1. Step 1: The top V

    In the middle of your paper draw a fat bubble V. Its 2 arms meet in the middle.

    Tip Bubble letters are fat and rounded like balloons.

  2. Step 2: The stem

    Where the arms meet, curve smoothly into a fat stem and draw it straight down to a round end.

  3. Step 3: Two big eyes

    Under the notch, where the arms join, draw 2 round eyes, not touching. Add a black dot and a shine.

  4. Step 4: A smile

    Under the eyes draw a small U smile. Start under the left eye and stop under the right eye.

  5. Step 5: Burst lines

    Around the top of the Y draw 5 short lines pointing out, like a burst of happiness.

  6. Step 6: Sparkles on the left

    On the left of the Y draw 2 sparkle stars, one higher and one lower.

  7. Step 7: Sparkles on the right

    Draw 2 more sparkle stars on the right to match.

  8. Step 8: Floor and shadow

    Draw a flat oval shadow under the Y, then a long floor line out from each side of it.

  9. Step 9: Yellow sparkles, grey shadow

    Go over your lines. Colour the 4 sparkles yellow and the shadow grey.

  10. Step 10: Leaf letter Y

    Colour the whole Y leaf green, leaving the eyes white. Your bubble letter Y is done!
