When I was a young girl, I loved making paper dolls. I also loved the little frozen Charlotte bisque dolls and dolls with porcelain heads. They were quite out of the price range for my 6-year-old allowance, so I could only admire them in the cases of the antiques stores that my mom frequented. So when I received the Lottie doll stamp set from Pink Persimmon, I had a way to combine my love of both into an adult creation that incorporated them theme of hearts. I printed a Prince Albert tobacco image for her body and so wished for a real Prince Albert tin to display with her. I got the photos ready, ran up to my local thrift shop - a Saturday tradition - and what do you think I found almost immediately? A Prince Albert tin! So I reshot the pictures with the tin in the background. I can't wait to make something with the tin!
