Mod Podge decoupage tray and art doll

I got out my mod podge bottle and decided to play this morning.
I found a small wooden dollar store trays in my craft room that I had already painted  the bottom with white paint. So, I decided to decoupage the bottom with one of the  new napkins that I bought in TJ Maxx yesterday. These little trays are great for holding jewelry or other doodads and make wonderful gifts.

My second project: I created a winged art doll. Along with another new package of napkins, I found some new, artsy cling rubber stamps in Michael's that are from Hampton Arts.  I stamped the face onto a manila file folder and cut it out. On a tag I again used mod podge  with a napkin to create the dress. Using some gathered, dark blue tulle  for a pinafore over the dress/napkin tag.  I drew some legs and glitzy wings, cut them out and added them to the tag. A new winged art angel was born.

I had a fun morning making these new creations. What did you create today?

They both are great, but the tray is outstanding! I love it!

You spent a VERY productive day - love both the tray and the doll (particularly the doll). I spent my morning running errands, but I spent the afternoon playing with pmc.

I almost bought these napkins, but got some with a nest, dragonfly and bluebird on them. Great idea. Exactly what I was thinking. I picked up an unopened bottle of MP at the thrift store for $2 last week. :)
