So, I was trying to think of a way for our International friends to make a Junker Jane type doll, without the huge expensive of mailing an international package.

I came up, with a flatish Paper Doll Assemblage, in the style of Junker Jane.

Therefore, this swap is for you to make and send one Junker Jane style Paper Doll, to your one partner. Please make your paper doll at least 6 inches. Please incorporate recycled materials and stuff you already have on hand. Basically, you will make a Junker Jane style doll, and instead of sewing it and stuffing it, you will make it by adhering stuff to a sturdy base. Please use a sturdy base, like recycled food box, thick junk mail, etc. Then feel free to decorate, dress, and give character by glueing, sewing, adhering anything you want to make your creatures, paint, markers, washi tape, etc. Your doll can be animal, human, monster or any combination like a monster in a dress, etc. You do not need to include extra outfits. This does not need to be articulated, but you can if you like.

This is the closest example I could find.

Have fun. And, yes, this is iNternational. You should be able to make these flat enough to mail in an envelope or in a card, without a customs form, for one International stamp of $1.15. But don't make it too bumpy or you will need to use a customs form, and of course, the thicker it is the more it will cost to mail.

Thank you for making this swap! I've always been a fan of Junker Jane dolls and fabric is not my medium. I am working on paper doll #3 because of this swap. They are just too fun to make.
