On a more positive note, I have begun working on my paper doll swap. And let me tell you, these paper dolls are not your child's paper dolls...much more detailed.
What I have done so far on the dolls:
1. Created a doll pattern
2. Cut four dolls out of cardboard
3. Applied two coats of gesso
4. Applied two coats of white paint
5. Created their clothing using fabric and glue...yes I glued on the clothes!
6. Here they are so far...
There is much more to be done. Hair, faces, masks and the rest of the costumes. I imagined these to be dressed for Mardi Gras Balls complete with masks, flowing capes, jewelry, etc., etc., etc. I hope to finish these this weekend...along with about a million other swaps I am involved with...
I leave you with this beautiful picture of clouds...
Have a great weekend, everyone...
And thanks for stopping by...
See you on Monday...
