...Introducing You're A Doll and Doll Additions




Good morning! Today we are bringing you some samples of projects created with two of the new sets due for release on Sunday, You're a Doll and You're a Doll Additions.

It's a Matryoshka set or Russian Doll set to you and me. It's a fun set for folks who like to stamp. Endless possibiilities abound in this set and there are 3 sizes of dolls that you can create as well as a couple of 'ready made' dolls that don't need to be put together for when you are in a hurry.

Here are a few ladies I whipped up using the You're a doll set, and also some images from Country labels 4, such as the little leafy sun motif and the cherries.


One of the tricks of this set is the faces - for anyone who is already scared at the thought of having to stamp that little round face in exactly the correct place, let me show you how it's done...







Simple, pimple, just stamp your face on a piece of scrap and punch it out with a 3/4 inch punch. Stick it in place, perfect every time. The face stamps, of which there are a few, are designed to fit a 3/4 inch circle punch and half inch circle punches perfectly, making this little doll easy to put together.

Check out the DT ladies who are sampling alongside me today:

Hope it tickles!
