Paper doll Princesses

Welcome

All kaleidoscopes by inkspired and KaleidoCam 

I have posted many paper dolls over the years.

They are one of my first loves,

along with my treasured Barbies.

Thought you might enjoy some

Disney paper dolls today.

They are easy to download and print,

cut out and play with.

All the paper dolls I am sharing today are from
the artist Cory Jensen.
I love his style, AND 
he offers them for pure enjoyment
to all!

I am starting out with a series he has of characters from animated Disney movies,
one page of doll and outfit(s).

Cory Jensen also draws paper dolls representing
some of the Disney movies that have gone on to be hit Broadway musicals.

These are more realistic and modeled after 
the actual actors -

These paper dolls are from Disney live action movies -

And we could never forget characters from
Frozen!

If you like what you see,
Check out Cory Jensen’s Facebook page
for lots of free downloads.

Here are a few villains for you -

There are so many more to share,
but I think I better close now,
So you can go check out his Facebook page!

You can find many of his beautiful paper dolls
on Pinterest also.

‘Til next time,

Color me RED!

Avast Matey...

Pirate Language for 'What's Up?'

TODAY IS 'TALK LIKE A PIRATE' DAY

Remember to answer your phone today with a hearty

"Arrgghh, what be your business?"

or

"Avast, matey!"

or

"Ahoy there!"

Today I celebrate all things red!

Perhaps it started with my choice of mug for my morning cafe'-

black and white line drawings of Winnie the Pooh characters,

with the inside of the mug a bright true red!

Perhaps it was the water cup that I picked for today -

a black commuter cup with the red symbol of Lucent Technologies.

Perhaps I am inspired by the red 'Batman' phone that Michael keeps on the desk, covered with a glass dome, just like Commissioner Gordon has.

Who knows what quirk in my brain went red today?

so, am I seeing red?

"Seeing red" is American slang for 'being really mad or angry'.

You can't think of red things, without thinking of the red rose -

c.1908

or Dorothy's Red Ruby Slippers -

and of course, I have to add at least one red costume from Liana's blog -

I have posted the 2 base paper dolls that fit this costume numerous times in previous blogs - search for 'Liana's"

Here are a couple more red vintage song sheet covers:

Is my face red yet?

(American slang for 'I am embarrased')

("Boy, my face sure is red!")

Think I'll end today with a Happy red Mary Poppins poster!

A Fall Craft Fair and scattered brains

Greetings, earthling!

(random Alien 'hello')



Today I am in a finish up mood.

The house is a wreck - seriously needs attention.

I have been picking up paper stuff mainly,

so far.

Those darn stacks of papers -

you can't throw them away because sure thing,if you do,

there will be an important bill or a check or something in the middle of it.

I have been throwing away magazines and catalogs from last year!

Yeah, pat on back!!

I am getting ready for a Craft Fair.

This is a new one to me, held at the

Adams County Fairgrounds

on October 1.

9:00 - 4:00

Come by and say hi!

That means

1. I'm terrified!

2. I have to organize my crafts and jewelry.

3. I have to figure out how to display the items for sale.

4. I want to make some more items to be sold.

(check out the making bottlecaps scene above)

5. I need to repair or re-glue anything that needs a little help.

6. I have to organize my craft room if I expect to be organized at all for the Show.

7. I have to print up price tags and affix them to most items.

8. I have to figure out how to package things, so they don't get damaged by being handled by possible customers.

9. I still need to recruit 1 or 2 persons to help me out i.e. carrying stuff in, set-up, doing sales and sales receipts, breaking down, repacking...+more!!

10. ...and probably at least 60 more things to do to get ready...

maybe even 85 things!

Okay, think calming thoughts...

That's me (not really), thinking calm thoughts,

or falling asleep.

Could be both...



The result for my blog?

My thoughts are pretty much on overtime right now,

so let's make a short blog today, shall we?

Yes, I really can!!!

Chimney Sweep Bert and Mary Poppins

I am laying out my finished bottlecap magnets now.

I organize them on pizza trays and cookie sheets,

as they are magnetic.

A magnet has come off, so I will re-glue that.

Next up is to get out my Bottlecap Ribbons.

I have sold a good amount, so I'm not sure what I have left,

or what is in a 'making it' stage.

a series I am doing on "Peace" in different languages.

Custom work available.

Recycled bottlecap with hand colored Art Nouveau alphabet.

Now I need to get out my jewelry; it is scattered in a few different places.

Get out my displays, and match up what I want to put where

once I get to the Craft Fair set-up.

Oh yes, and find out how early that is!

an assortment of daisy chains I have made

Well, I guess instead of whining about all this,

I better get going!

Couldn't miss my blog though...
