Mrs. Southern Comfort

I joined Sherry's Paper Doll swap she is hosting for Petticoats and Parasols, and I wanted to share with you my completed dolls. To play we had to create 6 southern belle type paper dolls all the same. Let me introduce Mrs. Southern Comfort.

She was created by digitally altering different bits and pieces from different greeting card images. I wanted to have her jointed, but there was no where to do it. SO I decided to give her a little sass. Her skirt splits revealing a little leg and a shorter skirt.

I also decided to give her a bit of a whimsical feel by giving her a top hat and having her balance a tea cup and cupcake. Hmm. . . . perhaps a Alice in Wonderland influence. I am pretty excited to go see the movie!

Lastly I decided to make a little cards that goes with her. Each doll comes with a card that says the following:

If you don't have any plans today, be sure to stop on by! Have a seat on the comfy pink sofa while I make us some tea. Help your self to the cupcakes, they are fresh. I just made them. I hope you like butter cream frosting, because it's my favorite. I got the fresh red roses from the local market. I just love how the sweet fragrance fills the air! I hope you enjoy your visit and stop by again real soon. Love, Mrs Southern Comfort

Thanks so much for stopping by to see my little doll.
