Doll Photography Fun: Use Scrapbook Paper As Backdrops!

Being a lover of scrapbooking and card-making, I have a big colorful paper stash. I recently bought some new paper pads that were on sale and as I was flipping through all the amazing patterned papers, I got the idea to use some of them as backdrops for doll portraits! 

All you need is some pretty paper, tape, and a white poster board or foam core board. Tape the top of the paper on the board at your doll's level and move the board in a well-lit area or near a window.

Pose your doll and zoom in for an awesome look! The designs make the photos so lively and unique.

Some of the paper can even match your doll's personality! I love these teacups with Rebecca.

There are so many different kinds of paper out there for cheap, I totally recommend trying it out yourself! 

I hope you have fun with this! If you do, I'd love to see. Feel free to send me your pictures to [email protected]

Is there a doll that you like to take photos of the most? I'd love to know! :)
