The thrill of going the next step in paperdolls

I am so totally taken with this book...I have always wanted to go beyond the traditional flat paper cutout dolls. This book is truly the answer...Not only are you given a list of materials need, to complete your project. You are given step by step instructions that make your endeavor a fabulous success. Doing the projects has opened doors to so many ideas for creativity. I always knew that "paperdoll" could be so much more dimensional and creative than just paper and scissors...Three cheers for someone being creative and artistic...Taking the traditional paperdolls to a level that opens a world of creativeness and artistic beauty that I never would have dreamed could be possible. Many thanks to you Rhonda for sharing your wonderful talents with those of us that dare and wish to go beyond the traditional paperdolls.
