Playing with Paper Dolls

I am exploring play with paper, card-making, paper crafts, and paper dolls this year. I found a sweet pattern on flickr.com for this oriental paper doll. This is the first one I made and have now completed two others that are a little bit bigger.

Savannah Rose is claiming this one as her own. She always wants the first trial on my experiments!

I think this oriental doll could be used as a bookmark or even an ornament on the Christmas tree if I add a ribbon on back for hanging.

Also, I have been playing with using a worn out deck of playing cards and came up with some flower creations from a punch I purchased. Now I have to decide what I want to put as flower centers and then how I am going to use the finished pieces. Something will come to me and I will have to update my blog posting.
