Today marks a return to the toddler paper dolls. I really enjoyed doing the mix and match series and will add more outfits to the collection at some point. For now, it's back into Illustrator with the toddlers.
Here's Allie, based on Annie from January of 2013. That feels like a million years ago!! Annie was my first attempt at freckles, so Allie got them, too. I loved the pattern & colors in Annie's wardrobe and the worked well for Allie. When cutting out Allie, cut along the shoulders to accommodate the tabs. It was nice to return to the toddler dolls -- I didn't realize I'd missed them!
She has a very sophisticated wardrobe for a toddler. :) I love her military inspired jacket and her denim skirt. I am currently taking a class from Lynda.com on Illustrator and I have acquired a whole new respect for you illustrator skills.
ReplyDeleteThe military jacket is one of my favorites, too. I try to include at least one new piece of clothing in each set so that I'm not just reusing the same shirt & jeans in every set!
DeleteI'm so excited that you're taking an Illustrator class! It's got some flaws, but overall I think it's a handy program to know. It's not quite as intuitive as Photoshop, but once you get the hang of it, it's great. Especially for pattern making! I find myself working in Photoshop a lot lately, but I frequently go to Illustrator and bring in things that are easier to create there than in Photoshop. I'm eager to see what you do with your new found knowledge :)
