Love it 🎉
Thank you! ❤️🇧🇷
absolutely adorable and creative!
Thank you! 😊
LOve these! Brava.
Glad you like them!
So fun! Ive never seen those pencils! I may have to check them out.
They are fun! Thanks! 🥰
I'm 7 months late but at least I've found you. What cute dolls!!! I love them so much!! Someday I'm going to find the energy to make more of these. I've only made a couple but they were fun. Your video has given me so many more ideas and options. Thank you for sharing your creativity!! Hugs from USA, Iowa.
Iowa! ! Cool!! Thank you so much! ❤️🇧🇷
How clever and fun. Already collecting magazines to have a go. Thank you. 👁️👄🦾🦵👤
Yuhuuu join the club! ❤️🇧🇷
Fun!
Right?! I love making them! ❤️🇧🇷
I love your dolls ! You've inspired me to pull out my magazine stash and try to make some myself. 😊
Go for it! Thanks! ❤️🇧🇷
My friend runs a craft group so I have sent her a link. They will have fun.
Thank you! ❤️🇧🇷
very inspiring, thanks for sharing 🤩
Thanks for watching! ❤️🇧🇷
How do you get those little white dots? I love the white posca pen work. Many thsnkd
They are just imperfections on the plate. I always use homemade plates, never clean them, and often take advantage of their imperfections before melting them down to reshape them. 😉❤️🇧🇷
Fabulous ideas!! Very creative and inspirational … Thank you so much!
You are so welcome!
This is so cute! I really love that border.
Super cute dolls!
Thank you 🤗
Just found your channel. I love your paper dolls! Plz continue making these vids for us. TYFS Cindy

Nice to see you used a bit larger sized model. She looked nice in her underwear. ❤🇦🇺
Mae West was a voluptuous girl too. About the underwear, I thought so too, I could have used non permanent adhesive on her dress…here is an idea for next time. Thanks for the inspiration! ❤️🇧🇷
So cute - love the glitter dress!
Me too!! I thought it was very glamorous, wish I had one myself 😻
Thank you!😊
You're welcome 😊 Have fun printing!
Beautiful papers! Thank you! I am wondering - did you make your own gel plate? I ask because the plate you use has nicely rounded corners and edges, as opposed the straight edges I have seen on commercially made plates. I ask because I have thought about making my own plate, but been hesitant. Sincerely, A New Subscriber. A few minutes later...I found your video about making a gel plate; thank you. Now I have another question😏 How long do your gel plates last and how do you care \ store them? Is mold ever a problem? I live in Georgia (USA),, so it gets hot and especially humid here in the summer. Thank you, again!
Thank you! I’m glad you found the DIY video, it’s a very easy, fail proof recipe. I store my plate in a recycled salad container between acetate sheets. I’ve been using my plate for, I think 🤔 over 2 years now. I just melt it down and reshape it every once in a while. I never had problems with mold. But the good thing about homemade plates is that they are dirty cheap. If you see any mold just toss it and make a new one 😃 I like DIY plates better than store bought ones because you can pull more prints out of a single layer. I usually don’t clean my plates, I think left over paint adds character and texture to my prints. However, I tried washing one once, and it didn’t work too good, after all it’s gelatin 🫠 You can wipe them with baby wipes, and let them air dry before storing them again. I’ve been in Rio for 4 months now, very hot and humid, so far no problems with my plate. I hope I answered all your questions. Be happy to answer more, anytime. Love Georgia btw, I used to live in Miami, and I’ve been to Georgia at least 3 times - great food 😻 thanks for subscribing! Hope to talk to you again soon 🤗

I finally ordered a set of posca pens because these dolls look so fun. I can't wait to try this!
Great! You will love them!!! 😁❤️🇧🇷
I already make these dolls but I watched the entire video because these girls are just so precious. I can't decide between the one with the building hat and the one with the purse for favorite. I'm feeling inspired to make a few new ones soon. I think you did a great job of explaining the how-to, as well.
Thank you! Do you have Instagram? Tag me if you do 😃 I would love to see your dolls. 😘❤️🇧🇷
Hi Ana, just found your channel and I love this video so much! This is how I pretty much spend my days - making weird but cute paper dolls. I loved watching your process and you gave me some great inspiration and ideas, especially for hats! I also put all my dolls in my journals. I tend to make larger ones, but going to try my hand at smaller ones. I just scored an outdated Simplicity pattern book for a few dollars that is packed with “parts”, lol. Looking forward to watching your other videos. I’m in California.
Yay! Thank you! Do you have Instagram? If yes, tag me so I can see your dolls. Big hug to you, and send my regards to California 😘
I love these little dolls and will surely try to make some! Will have to get some magazines first. Greetings from South Switzerland!
Oh wow! Danke! Ich wohne in München, aber bin gerade in Brasilien ❤️🇧🇷🇩🇪
This is a beautiful art journal page. Sounds like you had a great time last week! 🎉

Hi Jennifer! I’m back after a week off for carnaval ❤️🇧🇷
