A teaser of the Future

Psssssst!

Look at this!

Can you see it too?

Yep! Yep!Each time I see 2011, all I see is the word doll!!!

Has my doll-making passion turned into an obsession?

OR

is this A sigN?

Oh my... I hope the next year is going to bring us all wonderful surprises!

More blog friends, more extraordinary creative universes to discover.

I love Blogland!!!!

I wanted to write a kind of assessment of 2010 but though it could be way too boring and bitter so, I just want to focus on the unknown ( even though it is something rather tricky to do), the future.

Speaking of the future,the video for the birhday party is still in progress but looking good so far!

New Elégantes, I AM A PRINCESS & Un p'tit mot en français

Hello dear blog friends!

I will add at the end of this post something in French because there has been more French friends following this blog lately.Thanks to all!

I would like to say that I am in awe with all the photos I have received for the party! It is not too late to send more or join in the fun if you wish! Just check here.

I am ever so happy I got my mojo back! When I create, there are like butterflies tickling my stomach. Does it happen to you too? It is such a wonderful feeling.

Here is a teaser of what has been done so far.

This little one is ready for adoption here

I love her booties! And I think she does too because she cannot stop looking at them either!

Here she enjoyed a warm cup of mint tea.Hhhmmmmmmmm!!!!

I love this cutie with ginger hair. She is not completely finished. I am having some trouble with her boots. She might end up with no shoes at all! he!he!

Here is Miss Ice! She was made for a challenge for Art Dolls Only .

She found a loving home very quickly!

Maybe she is going to end up at the bottom of a Christmas tree?

Christmas is so near!

Oh! let me share with you a very special place! Not so long ago, I went there and I felt like I had entered a fairy tale.

OoooOoooh!
I felt like a princess in a palace.

I was wandering in this magical place, admiring the lights and the stars when...

...I looked up the stairs and saw my prince. Oh yes...sometimes I do want to believe in fairy tales.

Well , I have now decided that I AM a princess!

I hope you are all having a wonderful time preparing this end of the year.

Merci à vous , amis francophones qui passez par là. Je suis toujours ravie de lire vos messages en français . Vos commentaires me touchent et me font beaucoup rire parfois!

J'espère que vous voudrez bien me pardonner de ne pas traduire mes posts. La raison est simple: je déteste traduire.

Voilà...plus de secrets entre nous!

Le passage d'une langue à l'autre fait parfois perdre le caractère spontanné de ma pensée. Il y a énormément de choses que je peux exprimer dans une langue et pas dans l'autre .

Voilà, c'était un petit mot spécial pour vous qui faites toujours l'effort de me lire dans la langue de Shakespeare, mais celle de Molière restera toujours chère à mon coeur.

Voilà, j'espère pouvoir vous laisser une petite pensée particulière à la fin de mes posts dorénavent.

Veuillez pardonner également mon NORTOGRAF, l'anglais me fait perdre mon latin...hé!hé!hé!

Et patati et patata...tellement plus bavarde dans ma langue maternelle...

Allez, je vous laisse!

A bientôt!

Vanessa was our guest!

It was Vanessa 's birthday and the dolls thought it would be nice if she could have a little party in the parTEA room. But to have access to this very special place, you have to be ... a doll.

So, with a bit of magic, fairy dust and many other ingredients which cannot be revealed here, we turned Vanessa into... a little doll!

The dolls were thrilled to bits to have her for this very special occasion!

Vanessa was looking everywhere ! She couldn't believe her eyes!

The dolls had made a cake with lots of whipped cream.There were also lollies and toffee apples!

Vanessa even went upstairs to visit Aliénore's bedroom and tried the very soft bed.

How happy she was to be a doll!

And yet, she couldn't stay.

Because you see, even if it was a magical dolly party in the heart of the old England...

...things weren't so great if not shared with her Mister Lovee!

And so Vanessa went back to her beautiful Arizona and promised she would give us some news!

Bye Vanessa!

We hope you had a lovely Birthday!!!

Found it!!!!

First of all, I would like to thank you all for your wonderful words .

Once again you've proven how strong our network support is on Blogland and that blogging is deep, real, enriching, constructive , fun and full of wonderful people with generous hearts.

I am so proud to know you all.

Thank you!

I have followed ALL your advice: eaten chocolate , done some physical work cleared up the snow in the lane, walked dogs at the rescue centre ( I have just registered as a vonlonteer and it is one of the best things I have done ever!), read, watched films I loved ( even scary ones!), and have discovered new fascinating blogs.

Then, I started drawing, drawing, drawing...I just couldn't stop!

And a new little doll came to the world.

Then a second, and now a third is on her way.
The doll in the middle is the doll I am making for the Mini ADO challenge Jack Frost.

I have to say I am a bit nervous because these dolls are very different from what I have shown you before. They are closer to what I use to draw when I was a teenager when I use to buy Designers/Haute Couture magazines.

Discovering Andrew Yang's Kooklitas ( link in sidebar) just brought this memory back I guess.

I am having fun!

I have called this series: Les Elégantes.

What do you think?

Have I lost it?

Lately, I have tried to scan my world with my Papillon Bleu eye, but nothing...

Ihave tried to make some minis for the birthday party and ...nothing....

I have tried to make a new doll ...but still nothing...

I cannot feel it...it is gone...

Oh my...

I have lost my creative mojo!!!

This afternoon I heard a happy voice singing.

It was this funny little soldier !

He was SO positive and full of energy.

"Have you stolen my mojo?"I asked him.

But he said no.

If I have lost it out there, I will go and get it! Whatever it takes , even in the deep deep snow, I will have to go and get back my mojo!.


WISH ME GOOD LUCK!

( seriously...does it ever happen to you? You want to do something but nothing seems to stimulate your mind...super mega big sigh...)

I will be back!
