So yesterday after I posted my card post, LJ went down as I was editing my pictures. So I couldn't post the pictures I'd mentioned until today since it stayed down until after I'd gone to bed. But here they are now! :D

I don't know if you can see on the paper, but the background I'm using is a Christmas postcard, which I thought would be appropriate to go with an entry about Christmas cards. :3

The custom Frankie (not painted by me, I need to track down the artist of the face-up) I have doesn't get enough love, so I decided to take pictures of her with the gingerbread plushie, and the tiny gingerbread cookies I have for her. (I also have cookie cutters and more cookies! I intend to do something more with those later. :3)

Finally got my application to the genetics position finished! That took way longer than I'd hoped, but at least it's in. Here's hoping something good comes of it!

I was feeling rather burnt out by the whole process, so Scottie thought it might do me some good to get out of the apartment for a bit. We stopped by McDonalds and I got another Happy Meal for dinner so I could get another little plushie. ehehehe n_n' I got another different one, the pink flurry bunny. It's so cute! xD I decided I should do a photoshoot with Lala (since it has pink and a heart nose) and Twyla (since her pet is a dust bunny.)

You have a bunny now too?

More bunnies! )

As we were leaving the apartment, Scottie checked our mailbox and saw that I got mail!
My first Christmas cards for this year :D

So I wanted to post more pictures last week of the puppies I've been making, but then with lj going down I wanted to wait. Now here they are! I'm in the process of making two more, one out of fabric (almost completed) and another one out of felt. I'm going to try to make the new felt one long haired by felting in wool. Not sure if that's going to work out though, but I thought it would be interesting to try. :3

Yay livejournal is working again!

Most of it has been working the last couple of days for me because I wasn't on an affected cluster, but not everything was working of course. I didn't want to spend time making a post if something else happened and the post got eaten, ya'know?

I took some pictures with some of the little stuffed dogs I made posing with Frankie, I'll probably post those tomorrow. I've also been working on another puppy! It's made out of pure fabric this time instead of felt. I really like how much easier it is to sew, though with felt I can skip the sewing altogether and just felt it together. Options are nice. hehe

I'm having fun with this little project. I told Scottie that I was going to start making some puppies colour coordinated with the Monster High dolls. xD I was also thinking about making some mini plushes of the ghoul's pets. I actually have very few Signature dolls so I have very few pets! I have Spectra, Howleen, Frankie, and Rochelle's pets. I thought it would be cute to have some pet stand ins. lol

I've also been thinking about felting some animals out of wool.

I sort of feel like I'm posting without a really clear reason just because lj is working again and I haven't been able to post about all the stuff I've been doing! lol

Spring finally arrived last week, we had some rain that melted a lot of the snow. It started getting nicer... but the last couple of days have been cold and overcast. It's 40 F today, overcast and drizzling rain. It feel like Pilot! It's also supposed to snow tomorrow. I'm sure if it does it won't stick around for long, but geez winter give it up already! Dx

So I haven't been in the mood to sculpt for a bit longer than anticipated. I burned myself out on it a bit, so I decided to work on something else fun this week. I just haven't posted about them yet! I made two tiny stuffed dogs, they look good with Monster Highs. I took pictures of Frankie and Draculara posting with them. They also give a good idea of scale!

The white and grey dog is the first one, they're both based on Boston Terriers which is they they have such short faces. I want to do some later with fur material, but what I have on hand is felt so that's what I expirimented with first. They're both sort of prototypes so they're not perfect of course. The white and grey puppy I decided would be for Frankie so I thought visable stitches would be ok. haha I meant to make it look like Frankie was sewing it in some pictures, but I didn't get around to that. Maybe next time. The black and grey puppy only has stiching on the mouth, the rest of the dog I did completely with felting. I'm having fun expirimenting with techniques!
