Look who I dug up...Holly Zombie!

She's been dead since the 70's, so she's not as cute or sweet as I remembered. In fact she's a little moldy and mean.
She's out in the garden watering. That's curious, those flowers don't look very good.
"Oopsie! How did that weed killer get in the watering can?"
This piece is featured in the Ghoultide Gathering group ad in Art Doll Quarterly magazine.

LOL My daughter's Holly Hobbie dolls never looked SO cute! Just look at that face. .she is very proud of herself for helping water the garden! She's just a little bitty girl, so you can't blame her for not being able to read. Besides, she thinks that "dead" looks great!

I saw this ad the other day, and was looking at the different pieces, figuring out who made what, and when I saw her. .I KNEW that she was one of yours. She has that unique look! She's a charmer. .I love her!

Did you make that?
If so, describe the process.

And, DOUBLE IF SO, you should do props or something for Tim Burton.
