With a rich pastel palette reminiscent  of French macarons, and images of carousels, hot air balloons and the Eiffel Tower this collection will delight the imagination of anyone who loves Paris.

New Alice in Wonderland Printables

I just couldn't stop with the Alice Kawaii Playset I designed. My mind kept racing with other ideas to expand the Alice in Wonderland Collection. I thought my head would pop with all the ideas ... kinda like this little Alice animation I did. :) What if I had a paper tea set with a topiary place card where you could turn the roses red!  How about some tea cups that held cupcakes!! And I have to have some puppet favors to go with the party!! Maybe a googly eyed Chesire Cat and a Door Mouse that peeks out tea pot. Well I designed in ALL! Plus a few other goodies for the most fantastic Alice Paper Printable Craft Collection ever! The entire collection can now be purchased at a reduced price bundled together exclusively in my shop!

New Printables for 2012

 As I look at my 2011 list of goals I realize I did pretty good. Didn't quite get to all of them but I did finish my main goal, a professional website with a cart. For 2012 I plan to focus on printables. Above is an addition to my Alice in Wonderland collection. This Alice Party Set will feature a very fun paper tea set and wonderful pocket watch invitation.

I'm also working on a cute bird collection. I just finished the paper shape of the little bird below. The collection will include a cuckoo clock, birdcage and bird house.

Alice in Wonderland Kawaii Printable Playset

This is such a wonderful playset. I don't know what I like best, Alice growing out of Rabbit's house, the caterpillar and mushroom or maybe the tiny dining set with the cupcake spread. All your favorites are here! Alice, the Mad Hatter, Caterpillar and even the grumpy Queen of Hearts. Now you can play out all of Alice's adventures with this kawaii inspired paper playset! I bet Alice never thought she would stumble upon a delicious cupcake tea party in her exciting journey through Wonderland. 

Fantastic Toys printables are now available immediately after purchase. That's right, no more waiting for a PDF to emailed to you. If you purchase a printable from my new online shop the link to download will be sent right after payment is made. How nifty is that! Just think you can start making right away and playing isn't far behind.

Some of the clothing included in the playset are a princess, baking, gardening, and crafting outfit. This playset along with the complete dollhouse collection can be purchased in my etsy shop.

Pinocchio Printable Paper Marionette

One of my favorite memories from childhood was watching a marionette show at a summer picnic. I was so enamored by the show that the kindly elder puppeteers invited me over to their home to show me their collection of puppets. Ever since then I've been fond of puppets and have made many over the years including marionettes.

This charming Pinocchio marionette really works! It is constructed just like traditional marionettes except this one is made of paper. You can pretend to make him walk or dance by moving the controller he hangs from. Any young inspiring puppeteer would love to have this delightful toy.

Now that I have the basic puppet template designed I'm thinking of making more characters. What character would you like to see next?
