I always love the fabulous creations made in this swap. In this swap, you will make and send one Junker Jane style Paper Doll, to your one partner. Please make your paper doll at least 5 inches, and you can go as large as you want to ship. 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, use of paint, markers, washi tape, buttons, fabric, trimmings, lace, papers of all kinds, 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. The outfit will be attached not separate, but if you have a desire to make more outfits then you certainly may but it is not required. This does not need to be articulated, but you can if you like. This is the closest examples I could find. 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. 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. Also if you've made one of these in my previous swaps and want to link to it below or post a photo, feel free. I love seeing everyone's creations and I'm sure I'm not the only one. Have fun. |
