    Alison Bergquist demonstrates her technique for altering one template to create a variety of looks.

    Materials:

    Paper doll template
    Pencil
    Craft knife
    Assorted paper (for hair and clothes)
    Pens

    1. Begin by holding selected template down while tracing one half with pencil (figure A). To hide marks, the template can also be traced onto the back surface of paper.

    2. Reverse the template, align and draw the second half to match the first (figure B).

    3. Next, create clothes, hair and features (figure C) from desired paper and pen colors.
