Lizzie Borden Comes for a Visit





Lizzie Borden. Probable murderess. Definitely a celebrated and infamous character. This paper doll by the wonderful and creative Rhonda's Originals designs is a festive addition to any Halloween party. For sure a conversation piece. When I saw the design on her site, I knew I had to have it! My paper doll collection is growing. Yes, even zombies like to play. Especially with homicidal paper dolls. Note the ax. Just sayin!

The coolest thing about these dolls is that you take part in their construction. It is paper art, people. Fun, and inspiring, the dolls that you find at Rhonda's Originals are just that. Original. The digital file is sent to you, complete with all the how to's and if you have a problem, you have support through her site. Very cool. There is every kind of witchy and spooky wonder you could ever want. If Christmas is your thing, she has that too...

So check it out and let her know you saw Lizzie hanging out at Zombiegirl Shambling...Got to keep track of those ax wielding homicidal chicks.

Lilith the Vampire Girl Portrait - Altered Vintage Plate

Using recycled, abused, broken and tossed aside items, Angela from Beat Up Creations makes sculptures, altered plates, fantasy terrariums and amazing fine art prints.

Angela loves simplicity, small things, dirty art and banjo music. Born  in Los Angeles, her family is full of artists and craftsmen. She claims she is not, but after looking at some of her altered art, I disagree. Her work with abandoned objects breaths new life into recycled items and a bit of horror to an otherwise uneventful antique photo.

Find her at her blog:
