The fiber art group I belong too decided to make an art doll after seeing one of the show-and-tells from one women. Her doll was a different doll than the one I made here. I used a free pattern by Barbara Owen. I missed the day they actually made the dolls as I went somewhere with my daughter and grandson that day, so I did my own thing and made this doll here she is: |
| The heart button is a cinnamon button I made years ago. It's made with cinnamon and applesauce. I made cinnamon Christmas ornaments as gifts decades ago in all sorts of shapes and a little paint. They smell so good! I also strung some beads for a necklace, added a flower with a button center and made her hair out of eyelash yarn that has a sparkle to it. The coiled metal I used to hang the doll from is the coil I save from those paper theme books. |

| I hand stamped a piece of fabric with a variety of stamps and decided to use the stamped fabric for the dress of the doll. I also stamped some fabric to use as the face, arms and legs too. The stamp I used for the "skin" I purchased from my blog friend Norma. The stamp is called En Francais, Go here to see how Norma used this stamp in a Halloween card. Also here Norma used the stamp on an anniversary card with butterflies. |
