What a lovely doll !!!...have a nice week love Ria...x !
I will pop over there at once, and visit!
Oh, and what a fabulous doll! When did you make this? Why aren't there more? *accusing look!* She's lovely and she probably would like some friends. You could make her an Alice, for instance.
Hi Teresa! I'm so glad you found me on "the trodden path" too! I haven't taken any classes there YET and haven't participated at all until yesterday when I decided to head over and check it out again! I'm so glad I did! There's many classes that look good, including this one... I LOVE your doll! She's gorgeous!! But I do have a few online classes that I'm working on now before I can sign up for more. Darn!
You mentioned you and your sis have been playing with texture a bit on collage canvases... it's SO much fun and very addicting!! I love using Heavy Gel Medium to create a lot of texture. It's wonderful stuff!
Ok, I'll see you around I'm sure! I'm following you now too!! Again, so nice to meet you!!
--Esther
