Howdy folks,
It's been a while since I last posted. I want to make this a quick post because I have so many projects in the works. I recently returned from a trip to Europe and I have many, many projects planned for the thousands of pictures that I took. This is a project I was working on before I left for Europe. I used my favorite paper line of course...Graphic 45's French Country. I covered the front and back of the door hanger (which I purchased at Hobby Lobby). I sanded the paper edges flush with edges of the door hands, as well the center whole. I inked the edged with Vintage Photo Distress ink. I put the paper on using Mod-podge. The Prima Doll is Priscilla. I was inspired to use Priscilla after returning from France and seeing the Moulin Rouge theatre. I covered her using Glitz 6x6 Paper Pack "French Kiss" and some scrap harlequin paper I got from Hobby Lobby ( I think it's call Harlequin Script). I coloured her with Copic Markers. I used Recollection and Prima roses, I cut out a tag from the paper and back it on black card stock and popped it up on foam dots. I also backed the doll with foam dots. The lace is from Hobby Lobby. The medal embellishment "Enjoy Life" also comes from Hobby Lobby. I put a chipboard Fleur-de-Lys in the top right corner, I inked it with Black Soot distress ink and put an overlay of clear sparkle ink using my Atyou Spica pen. The feathers are from JoAnns. I used a small piece of Graphic 45 paper from a different line, I think it was Trans Atlantic and also cut out a couple of the stamps from the same paper...And viola!! I love how it turned out. This was a really quick and fun project. I've seen many Prima Doll tags and altered door hangers out there but if you haven't done one, I hope this inspires you to give it try. Til' next time...
