Today's episode on the Paper Doll Chronicles is about making abstract paper doll tags for your art journal practice.
Our theme for today is The Radiant Self.
July’s sun invites us to shine without apology.
This doll celebrates the parts of us we’ve grown into, the confidence we’ve earned, and the light we bring to the world—without shrinking.
Paper Doll Idea:
The Sun Queen / Solar Sister / The Bold One
Journal Prompts:

What wisdom or confidence has ripened in me in midlife?
