Doll of the Week: Meranda's Last Dress

Here is the final installation of Meranda the Sea Spirit's wardrobe, at least the ones by Papertopias! This frisky ensemble, along with the entire world of Meranda and her underwater enchantments, was inspired by the lovely and talented Miss Tess!
Thank you for engaging!

New Catagory: Doll of the Week

I am starting a new category for this paper world! Each week I am going to post a doll and throughout the week will post outfits for it. This doll is inspired by the talented Miss Tess and done in black ink on some very velvety and delicious cold press water color paper, I had a few scraps let over from the Frisky Faerie show and am drawn to scraping the inky tip across its bumpy texture. It was all I could think about when I woke up this morning!! Please print out and color if you wish, and create your own voluminous water world fantasies for her to wear! Enjoy!

Wedding Crashers Event at the Bell House

This event was first time I had been to the Bell House in the Gowanus area of Park Slope. Rebecca Shepherd, of Rebecca Shepherd Floral Design, invited me to soft open Papertopias Wedding Line at her table for the Wedding Crashers event being held there. The space is great! I designed and hand painted table numbers and escort cards to compliment Rebecca’s flora illuminations, which are elegant, enchanting, and made from the pixie lights of my dream world! They also had feathers creatively disbursed in the bouquets.
This is the first time Papertopias products have moved away from strictly paper doll goods to envelope a larger illustration form and I was honored and delighted to challenge my art to work with Rebecca and be apart of such a great event.
Papertopias is now designing wedding paper goods, hurray!
Kristina Hill of Kristina Hill Photography took some beautiful photographs of the event, the first few are of Rebecca Shepherd’s table. Enjoy!
