Well she is finally finished and this is my Alien child and was a real challenge for me as her face was not going to match who I had in mind so she ended up being the "The Queen" of Hearts, that is. I lean more to sweet, pretty and cute with a vintage style but rather than quit I went with it and gave it my best shot. I can see I am much better in creatively dressing and hairstyling than painting so I put my imagination to work. This was a fun challenge but next time I'm just going to make something I like and not limit myself to a class challenge. She became like homework until I started dressing her then it was fun. lol Now this week I'm off to have some fun and I'm in a mini altered book swap and want to get busy on that which I already know I will love and can't wait to start. See ya all soon when the next project is in.

Just popped over from Lenna's to enjoy your blog. Gorgeous little 'character', Marilou. Donna
Hi Marilou! I think she came out fantastic!!! :o) I love the dress and her hair and her face is adorable, Great Job! Hugs,Jennifer... she is no longer an Alien child either ;o)
She turned out super!.. especially so, for a first ever doll! I agree, I wouldn't call her an alien child as it makes her sound less than she is. Love the heart cape and pockebook too! Good job!
dear Marilou, I don't make dolls (at least yet!) but must say I love her little queen of hearts bag : )) Thanks for the comment today on my art journal. I found it too difficult to do all the work of a page spread in one day, so I started breaking it up over 2 or 3 days. This approach has worked well for me! hugs, lenna
Hello Marilou, I just love your darling doll, Queen of Hearts. I collect hearts and when one of my granddaughters was a little girl she called me Queen of Hearts, she was into Alice in Wonderland.
This doll is simply adorable. I am your latest follower. Lovingly...Lu
