My first paperdoll



This is a birthday card for my DH, Jason...a Penn State alum and die hard fan. The inside reads "...here to wish you a happy birthday."

I used the following cuts (all at 4") from the PDDU cartridge to create this little Nittany Lion guy:
* One piece suit - outfit 1
* Ears - outfit 2 (reindeer ears, trimmed off the antlers)
* Tail - outfit 2
* Belly - outfit 2
* Hair - pirate boy (I trimmed this so it wouldn't stick out behind the ears)
* Scarf - Frankenbride (I trimmed all but one side and turned it sideways)

  2. In peach cardstock, I cut the paperdoll that has the face that looks like lips (I forget which setting/number), then I cut along the perforation so that he had that open mouth look. I taped a plain piece of pink cardstock to the back to make it look like the inside of a mouth. Other than that, the eyebrows and nose are colored pencil, and the eyes are just black pen.
