PAPER DOLLS DRESS UP SERIES---episode 10

hello friends

we are here today to share episode 10 with you all. 

sit down and enjoy!

this week i worked with page #69

and i chose to make a garland out of the dolls.

Friendship Garland

(dolls were cut at 5 inches tall)

their tongues are so, so red from licking cherry pops, rotfl.

i bet you can make a nicer garland for a child's party, personalize it and embellish it any theme you have going on for the party.

here are a few more pics.

the faces are from 

"peachy keen stamps".

AND i have finally found a way to make PRETTY TINY bows with a fork.

click on this you tube video to learn how to.

see how easy this cute garland can be made and the little pretty bows too?

hope this post was of help.

now onto my teammates:

Daily Life: i thought i could get something else done this week to post but we had weddings, grad parties and gardening to do and in addition to that my husband is on vacations this week and, we might do some day trips. i am missing my craft room for sure. :(

STOCKINGS GARLAND

Glad I am not the only one having days like yesterday, lol. It was awful...I was so edgy, grrr!

Anyway....we went to the play. It was short but cute. T wants to be a theater director and this was the first play she wrote and directed. It was about a senior being dumped on prom night via text messaging. Imagine that one!

Kuddos to T for her big accomplishment. Last night was her night and all the glamour that comes with it. I was so proud of her.

Anyway, I have been making this garland bit by bit since last week and, I finally finished it today.

 I want to share it with you. It is now part of my holiday decorations in my living room.

I might try to sell it on Etsy too. It came out so very pretty and I had a smooth ride with it.

 STOCKINGS GARLAND

you can make it as long as you want and the stockings any size you want to.

These ones are 5 inches high

 I used Simply Charmed for the stockings, image #35 on the overlay.

A view from the side and remember you can click on the photo for a larger view.

Here is a collage of every single one. 

They were embellished on the back too in case I wanted to use them on a doorway.

The holly leaves (image #10) are from Winter Woodland and so are the poinsettias (image#9).

The ribbons are from my stash and I used thick chipboard for the base, patterned papers are from 

Cloud Nine and the textures cardstock from American Crafts. The last stocking you see in the collage was stamped with a script rubber stamp on kraft cardstock. I then used my red glitter pen and went over all the berries on the patterned paper. The center of the poinsettias were made with a whole punch using DCWV glitter cardstock and so were the one berry on the holly leaves. You already noticed the inking.....I love inking. I mostly used the brown inks for it.

Have a good weekend and if you have time check out

TIM HOLTZ 

12 tags of Christmas. 

I have to try the first one, even I am loving them all. He explains everything so well. I never went to his site much but today I subscribed to his feed because I do not want to miss his work ever again. 

I think we have a bit in common.
