Sharon of All Norah's Art is having a Paper Doll Party. After seeing her lovely ATC Valentine Paper Doll “Retro Pinkie” and then reading that she will give Retro Pinkie as a door prize to one lucky person. I was inspired to make a Paper Doll.
I spent a lovely time in my studio looking for papers, making a pattern and then putting it all together. I used heavy card stock for the base. Prismacolor pencils for her face, hair and hands. Lavender Mull berry paper, that has little silver stars for her dress. For the crown and details on her dress and shoes I cut up a gold doily. In her hair and around her waist I used very thin silk ribbon.
Here is what I came up with. Meet Princess Penelope Pig Tails. She loves to play dress up at her Amma’s (Grandmother’s) house. Amma makes dresses for her that make her feel like a Princess.
