Creating Paper Dolls

[DollFace1184]

This is too cute! But I do have one question & maybe you or other people who comment can help me with this! Okay so each outfit has accessories that go with it, but I noticed that they don't have layers tho. So I'll use the reindeer as an example the deer should be one color, the antlers another, holves another, but how do I accomplish this? Do I just print out multiple reindeers in different colors then cut out them to make one reindeer? Hope this made sense cuz I need help!! lol thanks!

You might try Aleene's TACK-IT over & over glue (not to be confused with Aleene's tacky glue) diluted in water to refresh your mats.

nice work

[luckygallm]

wow, soo pretty!!! thanks for vid.

[randyverda]

Thanks for the ideas. I was wondering what you use to "glue" the pieces together. How do you layer pieces together that have a lot of open spaces or thin areas that need adhesive.

I have just got this cartridge. thank you for showing me how to get started.

[jessicastarr9764]

could you show me how you made the indian headdress

[missgiebel]

Hi, WoW, thanks for all the great comments!! I used the Cricut's Paper Doll Dress Up for the Thanksgiving looking dolls. :)

[jessicastarr9764]

love the thanksgiving dolls.what cartridge did you use for that?

[jazznjava]

wow!. this is great how wonderful!

[amjPeace]

I love how the dolls pop when you add the embellishments/dots/faces! Thanks for sharing so many great ideas!

I also loved the scrapbook pages where you dress the dolls to match the kids in the photos, especially the t-shirt one.

I have this cartridge, and I'm excited to try some of your embellishment ideas, and I'll also have to go to the boards and find Diana's tutorial on faces.

Thanks very much!

[MischievousIQ]

Never thought I wanted this cartridge until I saw your video. Now it's a must have, thanks for the great video and wonderful ideas!

[missgiebel]

Hi, thanks so much for the nice comments!! I took a black fine tip pen and drew along the lines that the cricut cut on the dolls/clothing. The faces were hand drawn. I hope this helps and that I answered your question.

[mstennille12]

I absolutely LOVE this cartridge. It's probably my favorite. I'm an Education Coordinator for a JoAnn store so I actually have to do Cricut demos about once a month and I have so much fun with this cartridge. Last time, I made a Michael Jackson doll! Complete with glittered glove and socks! I never thought to use chalk ink, though! What a great idea to give the pieces even more depth and character! Question is--Are you actually drawing all those lines on there? And what are you using for that?

[missgiebel]

Hi, I just use a peach color or a light tan depending on what color doll I'm trying to cut. I do not use any specific color. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

[milagros711]

What color paper do u use to make the actual body? Thank you!

[sweetcarol126]

Enjoyed it. I did a Farmer with the Paper Dolls. Just had to redo the shirt a bit to make the bib overalls and then put it on top of a different shirt which I cut in small plaid paper. Looked great. Would upload but don't see how to do that here. I did the mermaid, too. I sometimes use squiggle eyes. Did buy Peacy Keene stamps faces but haven't used them yet. Don't store as well as CTMH Acrylic stamps. So I've forgotten what I did with them.

[DianaGomezcesar]

How I find you here? I don't know! are we going to invade this place too? =D thanks for mentioning me!

Hi, Thanks for the comments about my paperdoll's eyes. I found a tutorial on the Cricut Message board by Diana. It was wonderful and I just practiced a bunch. Hope this helps. :)

[cpm618]

[XXDEBZ]
