Paper Dolls & More

I'm having a wonderful time with Mindy Lacefield's watercolor class and turned some of the watercolor faces into paperdolls. I made some larger and some minis.
The faces are painted with watercolors and the dresses, wings and legs are printed paper.

I'm thinking of making them into sticker sheets and maybe selling them. Let me know if you might be interested in them.
I made one test sheet of stickers for myself.
I love using stickers in my monthly planner and they would be fun to use on tags or cards too.
My daughter, Rachel, recently opened a sticker stop in Etsy and she's having so much fun designing and selling stickers. Check out her site

And then I just wanted to share a few of my other water colors pieces I made in Mindy's class.

Thanks for stopping by, I hope you had a great weekend!

Mindy Lacefield Watercolor Mini Faces Turned Into Paper Dolls

I'm taking Mindy Lacefield's water color class and it's been sooo much fun! These are the mini faces I recently painted.
I couldn't wait to turn these little faces into paper dolls.I cut out the faces and added them to some random paper dresses.
The dolls just come to life when you add the body!

My Abstract Watercolor Flowers

I'm still going through the on-line lessons from Jeanne Oliver course, "Letting Go: An Exploration of Abstract Painting" and having a great time playing with watercolors.

Below are pictures of the pieces I painted today.
 Jeanne has some wonderful tips, I've learned so much!
 I'm still adding my own touch by adding my metro tissue paper.as small accents.

Have a great week!
