My Marie Half Doll









I hosted a swap with the Marie Antoinette Mail Art Group in November, we all purchased our own Marie half dolls and the swap was to send a person beautiful materials and supplies to make your half doll. My partner was Wanda, she has two beautiful blogs Vintage Romance and also Roses in Winter. She also has a beautiful Etsy shop http://www.etsy.com/shop/rosesinwinter. She sent me the most beautiful supplies and if you missed that post you can read about it here http://designsbyterrigordon.blogspot.com/2011/12/marie-half-doll-supply-swap.html. We received our supplies in December and have until the end of January to finish our dolls. I had a hard time finishing my doll as she sent so many beautiful things. Thank you so much Wanda, I will treasure her and think of you each time I see her. Thanks for visiting my blog today and I hope you have a wonderful evening. Hugs, Terri

Terri, she's gorgeous! Oh my goodness how beautiful she is! I absolutely adore her! You are so talented Terri, I'm convinced that there isn't anything that you can't turn into a fabulous work of art! Bravo Terri! She's so lovely!
I would love to be able to create one now that I've seen how elegant and charming they are but you may need to make me a tutorial. What in the world did you use underneath her? Gosh, I have so many questions about creating a beautiful half doll, yep...I believe I need a tutorial. I'm in total awe over these dolls and I know my grand-daughters and daughter-laws would love the to!
Terri, thank you for sharing your outstanding and very lovely doll! I hope that you have a wonderful day!
Hugs and many blessings...
Bobbi Ann

Oh wow! Wanda sent you some gorgeous stuff, and you worked your creative magic! She is just beautiful! Her dress is so utterly feminine and sweet. I love how you draped her skirt too.
You are amazing!
