Her Heart Ruled Her Head

Honestly, how much time can a grown woman spend dressing up a paper doll!  Well, I can tell you, the answer is - quite a while!

This week the theme over at Craft Room Challenge is "Altered Paper Dolls".

I've used this image which I found at The Graphics Fairy ...


I coloured her skin and hair with promarkers, sewed her a skirt out of wrapping from a bunch of flowers and made her bodice from TH tattered florals petals covered in chocolate wrappers.  The bird cages are earrings.


Have to say, I think she looks quite grand!

Thanks for paying me a visit.
Happy Crafting - Suze xx
