Fun with paper dolls!

I spent most of yesterday, designing and playing with my paper dolls! (Isn't my job tough?) I have so many characters that I want to bring to life, I could probably spend weeks straight making these. ;) Here are my two newest ladies, they belong to the "Vintage Circus" series:



"Sapphire, the sword swallower"

I designed Sapphire's head, so it can tilt open to allow her to "swallow" the sword in her hand. Neat, right? :D



"Davina, the fortune teller" and "Gypsy"

Davina comes with a friend. :) I did a mini version of my beloved cat, Gypsy, to keep Davina company.

Happy Thursday everyone, the weekend is almost here! ;)

  1. What wonderful dolls!

    I'm particularly keen on the Tarot reader and her gorgeous cat! It's a wonderful homage to Gypsy too!

    Great job, Leila!
