Button Doll Canvas Inspired by Alison aka Butterfly for Paper Artsy


Over on the Paper Artsy blog this week, it's been the turn of one of my favourite people, Alison aka Butterfly, as Guest Designer. When Alison was up last time I was in France so I didn't have a chance to join in following her wonderful inspiration. This time she has been using the Doll plates by Ink and the Dog which are such fun! I decided to copy her 6 x 6 canvas as my challenge entry this week. I pretty much did as Alison recommended except where I didn't have the same stamps, as I don't have the feather, so I stuck with the Doll plate. I used the same neutral colour palette which I found hard as I do like my colours.


My favourite part of Alison's make was definitely the buttons which were such a great idea, and I will definitely do these again. Thank you so much, Alison, for bringing us such great inspiration!

  1. I love this, Lucy - the dolls work beautifully on the canvas (love the chap on the side!), and I think you've absolutely nailed the neutrals! Fab buttons too - so glad you had fun. Thanks so much for joining in this week.

  4. Those buttons do look great! I love the way you used the side of the canvas too and your use of the neutrals is truly lovely. A beautiful canvas inspired by Alison. I do hope you had fun making it because it looks as if you did. Julie Ann xx
