ME Too'sday and Halloween's coming!!

10/7/2014

Time to think spooky thoughts .... time to listen for things that go bump in the night .... time to gather candy corn by the light of the full moon!!!!!

(Is that a ghost behind Annie Laurie??!!)

Time to let Madam Annie Laurisky see your future in her crystal ball!!!

The tea leaves show that I've been meaning to "do" this Mary Engelbreit scene for a looonnnnggg time. And this year it finally happened!! In a large part thanks to little Matilda - she may be a little green alligator instead of a little green dragon but, my my, isn't she CUTE??!!!

Mary Engelbreit, 2006 calendar "Life is What You Make It", October

Matilda is a OOAK doll made by Yulia Shaver, in a purchased costume. Mimi is wearing a bunny costume made by Julie Milliron

Sweet Pea is a Luts Cutie Delf, costume by me

Annie Laurie's costume by me

Enjoy, if you dare!! R.

That is a wonderful re-creation of the original illustration! Their costumes and poses are just right! :)

Thanks Randomfish! I checked out the link to your website and see your post about creating the perfect doll. I too think that a fully articulated Effner doll would be heavenly and have been urging Dianna in that pursuit. She is (as noted by one of your commentators) in the process of producing a resin bjd, a little taller in scale than the dolls shown on my website here (i.e. about 11-12")!! Roberta

This is amazing! Fabulous detail in recreating the illustration! I love all of your costumes and how you set it up! I agree; absolutely perfect!

The lot of you are featured on today's ME desk calendar. Gotta admit I think I like you even better in 3 dimension. Great job, Roberta!
