Well, since I was a child that is. I was leafing through an old Stamper’s Sampler issue which was full of paper dolls and decided to make one of my own. I copied the picture (from of an Elizabeth Vigee-Lebrun portrait of Marie-Antoinette), scanned it to make plenty of copies, and collaged it.

It was great fun, and now I am planning to give the lady a gallant for Valentine’s day.

I love your paper doll. Did you post the steps on how to do anywhere? I’m new to this so don’t always understand what all it took to make it. And like you, I CAN’T SEW and not sure I want to. I did sew in Junior High. We made aprons and skirts and even a shift (dress) I think but it was so long ago I can’t remember for sure. I don’t hem anything, I take it to the cleaners to do. If I have to I can sew on a button but it kills me to do so. Anyway, just wanted to tell you how much I like your art.
