The
last few weeks (since I finished up the fireplace) I have been trying
to get a project to work for a tutorial. I wanted to make a fireplace
screen to sit in front of the fireplace. I have lost count of the
number of times I have made the project and ended up throwing the
results in the trash. It just won't work out the way I want it to. I
am hoping to be able to figure it out at a later date.
Now
it is time to move on to other projects.
This
week I decided to get out a kit I got from Ann over at Paper Minis a
long time ago. I think I purchased this when she first came out with
it. I have been meaning to make a tutorial of it for well over a
year. I just never got to it. So this is the time, we are finally
getting some weather that is trying to act like spring is on the way.
The local garden centers are filling up with stuff so I figured the
dolls should get into a spring mood too.
Like
all of Ann's kits for the 18” dolls this comes on a CD so you can
print it out as many times as you need to.
I
used just some regular weight high quality bright white printer paper
for everything except the cover of the catalog. That page I printed
on a “photo project” paper. It is slightly heavier than regular
paper and prints really well.
This
(like all of Ann's kits) is a super fun project and it turns out so
darn cute. I am looking forward to doing some photo shoots with the
dolls using the pieces I created today
