Those paper dolls ...ah-mazing!
Awww that letter is the cutest thing ever!
I really love your girls( and guys) too. I find that, that people are my weakest point when drawing...do you have any suggestions on developing a style for illustrating people?
Thanks :o)

Hooray for paper dolls! I used to play all the time with my grandma and sister! My sister and I were proprietors of a paper doll clothing store called "Dress Shoppe Down the Street" and my poor grandmother was our much bossed around head designer.
Your dolls are so cute!
