PLAYING PAPER DOLLS AGAIN!

Today I have a few quick things to share.  The first is a tag for the mother of one of the gals in a group I belong to.  She has developed dementia and this is a subject dear to my heart as I went through it with my Mom.  We were told bright colors to catch her attention as well as blue being her favorite color.

Here is what I came up with - 
This is Audrey - 
Julie Nutting's 1950's decade doll.

Next is another attempt at Pocket Art.  This is for a Winter Themed Page Swap over at Robin's Scrap Nest.  The doll I chose for this page is Valentina!

And here are a few close-ups!



Along with the page swap event there is going to be an optional game for those that wanted to create another pocket page. For this one I got to use one of my newest stamps from Julie's latest collection which all have a beach theme.  I also entered this page in a challenge at Paper Doll Trading for using a 1950's theme.  This is Suzi!

and the close-ups!




Hope you have enjoyed my doll shares today!   
Hopefully I will find a spot to create more soon!

All comments gratefully appreciated!

I'M BACK!!!!

So sorry for the long lapse in posts.  I had a wonderful trip with my son Thomas to visit a dear old friend in Nashville, TN.  We had an awesome time and I just developed 400 photos! So, you will get to eventually share in a lot of our fun and sight-seeing!

I have not gotten to do much creating but I do have a few things to share...

While I was away I found a Hobby Lobby and did a bit of shopping and I created a gift tag for Thrifty Thursday challenge over at Addicted 2 Paper Dolls.  They only had 2 dolls in stock that I didn't have.  This one is Mindy.


My next share is for the December card sketch over at Scrapping Everyday Miracles.  

Here's the sketch-

and here is my card -

I am also going to enter this card over at 
Word Art Wednesday for challenge #212.

and my last share for tonite is part of my package for an angel gift at church.  The gift is part of a package for an 11 year old girl whose favorite colors are pink and white.  


and a few close-ups-




I hope to get back to working on my Christmas presents this week in between packing and apartment hunting.

and now I am off to bed!  Sweet Dreams!

IT'S ANOTHER MINI!!! (plus a contest win!)

Today I was able to complete another mini I created as a gift for a friend.  These were photos from a graduation party I attended last May for a friend from Minnesota.  She was here attending University of Delaware but is now home in Minneapolis.





 Obviously Kiki's Dad!

Isn't this a wonderful group shot?




The end!

I am going to share this in 
challenge #207 Anything Goes.

And a share of a tag I created for a Thrifty Thursday contest on Addicted 2 Paper Dolls. It called for creating a tag with a doll stamp that featured a tv or movie character.  I chose the Nanny - Fran Dresher as over the years many people have told me that I have looked (and sounded) like her! And...I won!







How about that 'big' hair!
Lots of spray in those days!

Hope that you have enjoyed today's creations... well actually yesterdays...but there will be some today as I am going to visit my friend Maraline tonite.

LET IT SNOW!

Today, (10/9) I created a tag for a swap that I am going to be in over at Paper Doll Trading.  

This is the first time I got to create using Valentina as I thought she would be perfect for this as the theme is snowflakes and she has on nice warm boots!

I will have my partner on the 13th and she should receive it by the 27th so I am way ahead of the game for a change!


Here she is - 

a close up of Valentina!

check out the tiny pearl buttons!

Here are a few snowflake eyelets 
which I added rhinestone centers to!

and my sentiment!


I am enjoying creating these dolls so much!  

I hope my partner likes receiving her as much as I enjoyed creating her!

MY SATURDAY SHARE

I have two simple things to share with you today that I created last night when I went to visit my friend Maraline.


The first is a fun Autumn tag using the 
'Giula' 
Julie Nutting doll stamp.









I am entering her in the 
Try It On Tuesday Autumn challenge 
and in 
Trimmie's C.R.A.F.T. Challenge #332 Autumn/Halloween/Thanksgiving/Bonfire Night.
and in
Changing Seasons
And next a fun baby boy card using 


and my card-




It's really hard to read in the photo - it says
'WITH LOVE AND BEST WISHES 
TO YOUR NEW BABY'

I hope that you have enjoyed my Saturday creative endeavors.  

Hopefully I will have something else for you to check out later today!  

Please leave a comment to let me know you stopped by and what you thought of my latest creations!

Thanks so much for stopping by!
