Everyone remembers how much fun Paper Dolls are to play with! We want to introduce you to our new doll stamp set called "Lottie". She would really like some friends to play with. Create a vintage or modern paper doll that you can play with, mount on a card or layout, or just perch her next to your computer to keep you company. Any format, any size, any style. Use vintage doll images and dress them up with patterned paper and embellishments.
Winning Prize: The new "Lottie" Paper Doll Stamp Set and a selection of vintage embellishments and papers to go with her. A random participant will be chosen for the winning prize.
Link up your doll image to the comment section of our blog, or send us the photo in an email. This challenge ends on Friday June 19th.
Available with the Lottie Stamp is a pdf download of her body and a dress template. You are welcome to use this template with any other doll stamp or image if you would like. You can download the pdf here.
Here are some samples of Lottie to inspire your own doll designs.
This doll shows Lottie with her inspiration and with her full dress and
body form. A pdf template for the dress and body is available here.

Dorothy Doll. Judi stamped the hair color twice and cut out the pony tails with the second stamp. (Don't you just love the ruby slippers?).
Looking forward to seeing all the fun dolls!
What beautiful little paper dolls! I loved playing with them when I was little. I need to make some!

Sheila's comment made me (Darcy) do a double take and I can now see where she gets a "risque" view of some of the Lottie designs above, but the original stamp design was modeled after the porcelain head of the jointed dolls and we think that most people who are familiar with this doll style will get the placement of the joints from a vintage style perspective. Lottie looks great covered in a dress too, so you can make that decision on how to use her "parts". Judi is going to make some designs with the shoulders tucked behind the body for you to see and compare. :)
We can't wait to see what type of dolls our readers come up with! Remember, any style, any theme, anything goes!

The swivel-joints on their chests make them look....uh.... naked...if you know what I mean.
