Skull Purse

Here are some pics of the new dolly purse I made:

The dress is made by Dollheart, but the purse is by me!

(There will soon be a Dia De Los Muertos one as well!)

This little skull purse is fully functional (the next pic shows it open)

and is entirely hand sewn using embroidery techniques!

The strap is a beautiful, silk, hand dyed ribbon with an extra silk, hand dyed bow tied on.

Here it is open, as you can see, it has a snap closure, and you can put

fun little dolly things inside!

Pidge: It's so lovely out... but getting cold. Maybe I need a scarf?

This purse, along with the soon to come Dia De Los Muertos purse

are my own design, and will soon be heading to my 

etsy shop!

A picture for Ginger @ bearbits

I just thought I'd share the following picture:

A while back, I asked Ginger if she could make me a Sebastian style bear...

but smaller, so it would be in scale with my Dollfie Dreams.

Ginger came through with flying colors.
This little guy is one well loved bear!

I actually make the purse my doll is carrying... but you can barely see it!
So here is a better picture:

Projects in the works!

Little drawings for little projects!

Lego!

For their 80th Anniversary, Lego has made an animated short of their history... it makes me want to go buy more Legos!!

Whatta Week!

Hello, everyone!

I have so much I need to write about...
new girls have arrived...

penpal letters have arrived...

and yet, instead, here's what I've been up to:

It all started with a harmless follow-up X-ray:

Which led to me hearing the X-ray technicians say things like,

"Never seen that before..."

and then the doctor saying,

"It looks like an innertube... that's NOT good...

this girl needs an appointment, STAT!"

Which led to me sitting here for a while:

Which led to me being rushed to the ER

and given one of these:

along with a CATSCAN,
in which the doctors found something they could only describe as...

INTERESTING.

Literally... that's the word they used.

So, I was admitted, and taken to surgery.

Offending articles were removed...

but the docs still aren't quite sure what's going on.

Evidently it looked like my abdomen was filled with scar tissue...

as if I'd have a surgery.

They must have asked me a million times if I'd had surgery

in my abdomen area... to which

I always answered NO... because I never have.

At least I had some pals with me, though.

Teddy Bears are always true, blue friends.

Ginger Brame makes VERY good hospital stay friends, in case you're ever in need.

Le Petit Macaron was there as well...

although she didn't want to be.

But she was stuck just like me

(she had gone with me to work that day)

At least there was a lot of food once surgery was over.

The place had room service from 5:30 am until 6:30 pm...

and I could call them as often as I wanted! 0_0

So yeah, that's where I've been for the last week and a half.

I DO NOT recommend this vacation!

On a happier note, Alna came with me to work today.

Her new wig is the Real Champagne color from Leeke... it's beautiful,
and almost the same color as my hair!
