I feel I need to find some ink for my printer because it would of been nice to just scan and print rather than transferring the template by ye ol' pencil and paper method, but, ultimately it kept everyone busy and engaged for over an hour so I'm not going to complain too much.

Isn't it lucky that we happen to have some brads that look like buttons? I heard little squees when the girls discovered the button brads when they went to articulate their Coralines.

So, now I'm staying up late tonight to finish my paper doll. Instead of sewing, such as I should be doing for the costume committee of girl child's Alice in Wonderland play. It opens in a couple weeks and I have several more corselets cut and needing to be assembled. To be fair, my paper doll is actually wearing a corselet, so maybe I can count this as valuable research time. You know, as I colour my paper doll?
Those look great! We've listened to Coraline a few times now, as well as watched the movie. Thanks for the suggestion to read it.
