Paper Dolls



Here are three paper dolls I've made...some for a Doll Street swap, some for fun.
The first is from a Mirkwood Designs template, the second is mostly original using a
face mold from a commercial mold. The third is my embellishments on Linda Fleming's African woman design. Wish I could get a photo of her that shows up all her "glitter". I'm working on a fourth while trying to get my house in order for company starting next week. Then friend Jeff(Grasshoppa) is coming down from New York to give some of us a class in decorating emu eggs!!! And he's promised to come and play a bit in my studio working with alcohol inks, etc. Toooooo much fun!

Wooooohoooo! Sweet Mary has jumped right on the paper dolly bandwagon! And these are TEEEERRIFIC! I love all 3 - my fave is the original one! She's awesome! Funny - I've got MY paper doll stuff out for this afternoon, too. Must be catching. Doc says, "Ahhhhh! I see you have a serious case of Paper Doll Flu!" Looks like we've passed it around at FDA! Great dolls, Sweet Mary!

You've gone to town with these paper dolls, Mary! They all look lovely! I like Kai's calling it Paper Doll Flu- LOL! Looks like a bunch of us have caught it.

Ma am I bow before your talent. Flu? it is more like an epidemic and such lovelies are being made. I am now too afraid even to start one as I know I am no good at these things. Mary I love them all.

I would hate to have to choose! They are each marvelous in their own way. Absolutely wonderful, Mary!
