Jane Austen paper Doll

I made this doll for Victoria, my swap partner

for the Advent Swap I participated in.

One of Victoria's likes is Jane Austen so I Googled

some images and her blue dress seems to feature a lot!

I copied it the best I could (oops, should have

ironed it by the looks of it, I'm sure Jane Austen's

dress would have been perfectly pressed and pristine)

Her face is moulded from air dry clay -

 the hair is some sort of dyed wool - 

I can't give more details as I can't get to my cupboard 

where my supply of it is kept at the moment as there's 

Christmas presents blocking the door!

Oooh-la-la - moving swiftly on!

I also made an ATC to accompany the doll,

see, there's that blue dress again - lol.

This is the last of the Advent presents I made for Victoria,

but it's been a lovely swap and I've felt like a little girl

again opening up a present every day

(and of course, there's still one to go!)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'd like to take this opportunity of wishing everyone

a very 

Merry Christmas 

and a  

Happy and Healthy

New Year

  

and to thank everyone from the bottom of my heart 

who takes the time to read my blog

and leave me comments, I really appreciate each and every

one of them.

Enjoy your celebrations and hope to see you

here again next year (if not before!)

Cheers
