PAPER DOLLS DRESS UP SERIES---episode 12

hello all, 

we are almost done with the series. one more episode and  "see you later, alligator"-- hehe

 next time i need more teammates to make it go faster :P

anyhow, i hope you all had a great 4th of july. 

for this episode i had to work with page #77 (which is image #49 on the overlay).

My Shepherd

is on a dcwv mat to hang on my craftroom.

the whole hanging measures approximately 5.5 inches tall 

(not counting the wire hanger)

he is so, so adorable. i love how i clothed him too.

that dcwv mat i used, do you remember them? i bought them a few years back. it is thick chipboard covered with their textured white core cardstock. i bought them in all colors. they came in boxes. well, since i am a hoarder of all kind, i still have some. i used the tim holtz embossing folder called cracked. it comes in a set of two. the other one is called checkerboard and i love both.

the trees i already had in my "stash for another day" cuts, but i cut everything else for this assigned page.

i used twine and glued it with tombo adhesive to give it form: one for the sash i used on his clothing and, the other one for donkey's leach (whom i adjusted a bit using my gypsy).

i also tailored his clothes a bit using scissors. 

---remember you can click on the picture for a bigger view---

you can see here a bit of how i played with the twine.

 that little yellow diamond shape is from a mini paper punch from g studio. i like buying those for small details like this one. 

his face was stamped with peachy keen stamps and a bit of white ink pen for the eyes and, i also used stickles for the bling.

the star was done with the martha stewart paper punch "happy birthday" but i just punched out the star part and fixed it with to my needs with my x-acto knife.

the donkey was cut on american crafts cardstock and the boy's clothing in recollection. the doll was cut in kraft cardstock.oh! the crown was cut using a core-dinations glitter cardstock.

(the reason i am starting to list the supplies is for my own future reference, lol---since i forget a lot)

 i move on to my teammates projects now:
