Troll Ellie

I cannot tell a lie. I am smitten with the movie Trolls. I know it's for kids but it just makes me happy!

Lucky for me others must love the movie too as I'm seeing Troll stamps pop up at various stores! They are all on my wishlist! I did go ahead and get started on my Troll collection though by getting a digi from The Paper Nest Dolls called Troll Ellie. I just adore her and she was fun to color up!

The colors are a bit off as I just got a new light tent to take photos of my cards in and I'm learning it. Her hair is more pink than purple. :)
