Thoughts on Today’s Paper Doll
You know, I really don’t do a lot of paper dolls with fair skin and dark hair. I’m not sure why I don’t… but I don’t. So, here is one today.
It’s kinda strange that I don’t, because my favorite two Barbie’s as a kid were a Jasmine Barbie from the movie Aladdin (which my sister melted in the microwave, true story) and a really pale doll with super dark hair. I don’t think either of those dolls were actual Barbie branded, but that’s neither here nor there.
Inspiration for Today’s Paper Doll
I was working on my summery clothing for the paper dolls and I realized I have never done a Lapis paper doll with shoes. I’ve done a medieval fantasy one and a cybergoth one. Both of those were super fun to design, but I did find myself thinking- maybe I should have one that’s got like just some shoes.
Plus, I do love drawing shoes.
Specific Source Images: I used Instyle March 2019 issue– their big Spring Fashion report. I like getting away from screens when I draw. That’s why I haven’t gone digital yet for my art.

Last Thoughts
Just so folks know, there is a bunch of stuff related to my personal life and work happening. None of it bad, but all of it time consuming. So, the blog posts are going to continue to be super erratic until… well, things settle which might be like 2020. Ain’t gonna lie.
However, my Patreon content is my main priority. So, if you do want more regular content, come over and join up.
As always, I love hearing from you and I try to respond to questions, so feel free to leave a comment if you like.
Great. I wait for ages ??? for Lapis with shoes. I realy like Lapis and Sapphire. This is my favorite paper dolls. Can you think about do one of these girls in classic beach clothes with swimwear. I saw your last nowaday swimwear was for Marisole Monday, Pixie and Puck and Puppets. I realy want to see your beach or swimwear paper doll with Sapphire or Lapis. Please, please.
I’m so glad you like her. I can certainly add swimwear to my list of things to create, but I’ll admit it probably won’t happen for a month or two.
Oh… Thanks. But I still can hope 😉 that in this year will be swimwear for Jawels and Gemstones. 🙂
This year, certainly. I just don’t like to promise specific dates, because I get busy and sometimes forget.
