Choose your Paper Doll of choice and lay it onto a sheet of Fabric Paper. Trace around the edge of the Paper Doll. To make the pants, trace only around the legs and connect the lines when you remove the doll. Similarly, trace around the upper body area to make the shirt.

Cut out the resulting tracings. Use different types of paper sheets to add a variety of pattern and color to your Paper Doll’s overall outfit.

Glue the pieces down onto your Paper Doll.

The lovely lace patterns in our Lace Paper are perfect for adding little details and embellishments to your Paper Doll’s outfit. Trace around the outside of your doll’s sleeve/arm area if needed.

Cut scalloped edges with special scrapbook scissors or develop an advanced scissor skill by cutting a wavy line! Glue the strips down onto the edges of the separate clothing pieces.

Even use the Lace Paper to make the hair! Cut out little sections and wisp the ends.
