Doll can tweet?

For at least ten years birds show up in my artwork and lately in my doll making too. I was playing around with this old doll I was unhappy with, and without even thinking about it I turned it into a colorful birdlike doll.

Made me some charms from an old credit card :)

I was feeling a wee bit inspired today... for the first time in ages! I made these charms from an old credit card.. also made a pendant I am still working on. I cut it up, painted it with silver enamel paint. I made an enlarged photocopy of a wedding announcement in the newspaper (from like 1902) of my grandparents. I tore that up, glued it on. I drilled holes and shoved the grommets through, not easy but I can not find my cropadile.. I drilled holes for the heart tacks, cover the backs with more announcements. Used a sharpie around the edges to darken and used glossy accents all over for a lovely shine. I am thinking of adding a little charm, but I like its simpleness as is.

I am thinking about making more of the same, only adding my ancestors sweet faces to them and using the heart tack like you see on the back. Would be sweet right?

I think they are cute :)
