Paper Doll Workshop

        The paper doll scraps linked to under this page are restored by me, kathy grimm, and made available to students of all ages everywhere to practice their paper doll crafting mania! Whether people are working to fill interesting pages inside of a journal or creating a special collection of paper dolls, I hope that visitors here will derive hundreds of hours of artistic adventure and doll play from the materials. Although, scraps cleaned and restored by me should not be used for monetary profits, teachers, students and scrapping enthusiasts may use them freely for personal collections or classroom projects. 

       If you are making a post about a paper doll that you have created using my scraps, do not move this content to your own webpages, just provide a link back to it's original post from the location where you share pictures of your finished creations. This blog will be here for a very long time; you need not worry about dead links or missing scraps.
