Description: | |
You will have 3 partners for this swap. You'll make 3 dolls, receive 3 dolls. ATC artists might get into this, it's kinda like an ATC, but half-page size... On a half sheet (8 1/2 x 5 1/2) of cardstock, you'll create a doll - male, female, fantasy creature - using paper, beads, feathers, stickers, stamped images, ink, jewelry findings, found items - anything! Glue or otherwise securely attach your items. Your doll can be completely flat or slightly 3-D, but make it easy to mail (and I'd recommend bubble-lined envies for these so they don't get folded en route). Be creative! Cut a picture of a clock from a magazine and use it for a head! Make "jointed" limbs by attaching arms and legs with brads. How about ribbons or beaded fibers for hair? a miniature wooden spoon for an arm? a golf club for a leg? sequins would make a glitzy gown or a mermaid's tail. Embellish the base page and the doll any way you like. Stamp or emboss or watercolor a background if the mood strikes you, or mount pre-printed paper to the cardstock base. Give your gal (or guy) a hat or a feather boa or a briefcase made of seashells or some really great shoes (gotta love shoes...) This is an international swap. Ratings 4.5 or higher. Newbies welcome with a complete profile and valid e-mail address. I know first-hand what it feels like to be flaked on, so please don't join if you can't play nice. Communicate any problems to me and to your partners, and give hearts for extra effort or exceptional craftsmanship. My first hosting, so please msg me with any questions. Cheers! |
