Who doesn't like to play with paper dolls? I had a lot of fun doing these art dolls and using up some of my old ATCs that were hanging out neglected and untraded in my swap binder. I used old untraded ATCs or altered playing cards for the torso and made heads, arm and legs to attach. My dolls are about 8 in. tall when finished. I used Rebeca McMeen digital art dolls resized for mine, but they could be made with magazine images or draw your own or rubber stamps. You do need to use cardstock for the parts and glue magazine images onto the cardstock to make them sturdy enough. I attached the limbs with tiny brads, glued the head and attached a paperclip at the top for hanging. This project works well for Carolyn Dube's "Use it or loose it" challenge.
