OFF THE MAT: ISABELA FROM ENCANTO

Isabela! She’s 30 inches tall with ….

💜 ribbon (for the sleeve);

💜 vellum paper (for the lace sleeve);

💜 75 cardstock flowers;

💜 3 crepe paper flowers (for her hair);

💜2 colors from my curated skin tone collection (hopefully will be available again early May);

I had soooo many cool details for Mirabel that I was worried Isabela would be a flop. And I had already done Frida with lots of flowers. But I love how she turned out … looking like so much more than just a flat cardstock project. (And different from Frida cause I was worried this would look like a Frida 2.0 version).
