Not mute Monday

Meet Lela.

Lela is an art doll. She has come to live with me and be my muse.

Lela was created by Carla Trujillo of Indiandollartworks. Carla makes some very stunning art dolls and back in February, she had a giveaway to celebrate having reached 1000 hearts on her Etsy shop. 1000 hearts - isn't that awesome? I was the lucky winner and today, the mail brought Lela to me.

She is so beautiful! I am totally in love with her.

Please go take a look at the art dolls Carla makes. I love her work! And I think I feel a new passion coming on...

Thank you so much, Carla!!

Hi
I am sure I will like her. I bought the Wooden Angel Knowledge. It had script on the body with wings and a face something like yours. It isn't showing anymore on her etsy site.
Thanks for sharing!
