Sparkly, Twirly Rainbow Dress

A silvery white spaghetti strap top with sequins all over it over a ankle-length full skirt. The skirt is swirling around, making the hem rise several inches above the ground. The skirt is done in bright rainbow colors and has a swirl and leaf pattern as well as a slight sparkle. This dress just makes me smile, and I hope it does the same for you! I wanted to experiment with the way of doing sparkles that I came up with for last week’s dress. My intention was to put the sparkles on the skirt, but then I came up with the idea of making that part rainbow and doing a lot of sparkles on top of that seemed a bit much. So I only put a few sparkles on top of it, because when it comes to paperdolls that’s my idea of moderation.

Next week… well, I don’t know! I’ve promised doll #4 three weeks in a row now, I may as well make it a fourth. For now, you can download combined color and black and white PDFs of all of my 2014 dolls and outfits for free! Also follow me on Facebook, Twitter or Pinterest for sneak previews, funny Photoshop error screenshots and fashion plates. If you enjoy my work, I'd also appreciate your support through Patreon.

Today I just felt like playing with some of my blue Prismacolors. The result is not very well executed, I fear, because I’m too excited to concentrate on anything too well! Tomorrow, I’m going to be going back to Michigan for a week to visit some friends, and I have been looking forward to it for quite some time. (Although I hear that I’m bringing an ice storm with me. Here in Washington, we’re well into daffodil season, and my friend who I’m staying with is warning me to bring boots and my winter coat…)

Because I’ll be on vacation, I decided to put together a couple of posts from my old Boutique outfits that will update automatically while I’m gone. The next new drawing will be on the 31st, possibly the 1st if I don’t have time the day after I get back.
