Hi friends,
Today I decided to do what I wasn't up to doing yesterday!! I should have put some sleeves on this poor girl though. She is at a party and it's cold!! She is a bit sad (#1 I don't draw well and #2 I think she missed the magic moment!). I paper pieced her dress and then colored and cut her out. I made a bg with misted water color paper and drops of liquid Color Burst then spritzed again with shimmer. I did paper towel the whole thing to make it less intense and help it dry faster LOL! I glittered the bg as well as sponge some Vintage Photo Oxide on the edges. I got the idea for this doll from this dress.
Thanks for looking!

goodness, Robin...your doll is plaid-tac-ular! I especially like the background...you achieved so much depth with the drops and paper towels...I love the boots and the ruffle for a hint of femininity. Thanks for playing in the IC this week.
Happiest of New Years!

Robin, I love this! I love the plaid dress! I see so many Christmas party dresses without sleeves and I always wonder how ladies go to parties in December in a sleeveless dress! I think your party goer fits in very well with all the dresses I see in the store! She is gorgeous!

Oh, I love her plaid dress and that wonderful background. If that waist gets any smaller, she will be in two pieces. LOL I love your card.

Oh wow mate, this is so special. My first thought was yippee yahoo...Julie Nutting dolls finally have faces....then my jaw hit the floor when I discovered you drew here eyes and lips....just after I got myself up off the floor, I fell right back down on reading that you don't draw well. Mate that's like saying Elvis doesn't sing well. Everything about this is brilliant my sweet sistah from anudder mudder.
