Whimsical Paper Doll Fun

This weekend, my niece and her partner & kids hosted another wonderful family BBQ in their home. It's always so much fun to hang out at their house, be with family and enjoy yummy foods. I just wanted to share with you some highlights of our day.
Of course, the girls had to craft, and we worked on making whimsical paper dolls. These are the dolls I made to bring as samples...

The head is a #1 coin envelope that's stamped with a face and then stuffed with flowers, and the body is made from dictionary paper. The pictures below are the girls working on their paper dolls.
And here are the finished dolls from everyone...they all turned out so cute and so different! I apologize for all the shadows, we only had cell phones to take pictures.

My daughter, Rachel, made these amazing mini S'mores Cupcakes..big hit!

Hope you had a good weekend!
