Mini special ladies

Sometimes, I shrink my blog fellows!

yep!yep!

Whether it is for a birthday or a swap , it is fun to absorb a bit of their universe and convert it into a little doll!

Flo was nice to accept a swap and as a thank you I metamorphosed her into a cloth doll!

Her universe is so colourful and bubbly!


She blogs about our swap on her bLog here

He is back!!!!

Hey! Look who's returned from his very long holiday in France!!!! I thought for a little while that he had forgotten about good old England and the cottage.

He came back with delightful gifts made by "my" Jojo Caramel.

Isn't everything just adorable?

But most of all, Edward came back with a diploma!!!

He is now a Doctor in Fishing and Leisure!

Some in the house did not totally get what a Phd was about...



But then, Doctor Edward said he could no longer wait to go in the garden!


So I put on my special garden exploring gear and went outside with him.





He ran accross the garden! I'd never seen him so excited! It was as if he was attracted by something he couldn't resist!!!



And indeed, he'd smelt it.


He knew it was here.

Doctor Edward knew Spring was starting to show a bit of itself in a rather shy way, but still...a tiny piece of Spring was here.

CARPE DIEM

(Now, it is time for Edward and I to choose a little something to send to say thank you)

The little orphans

Here they are those little orphans whose photos have been discovered in a very curious way.

From the left to the right:
Back row: Solange, Marie, Florence, Astrid
Front row: Gabrielle, Charlotte, Elisa

Marie doesn't regularly write in her little diary but what she has written is fascinating, sad and funny. She likes to draw and to take photos. As you can see on the photo below she needs to practise but, who doesn't? hmm?

( Ok, it will take me a little while to finish the actual story BUT not too long as I have just finished to make the dolls)

Aliénore and... a winner!

Today, I heard Aliénore's voice calling from the garden.

She was so excited as she had found a beautiful puple crocus!

Then we spotted a yellow one!

Aliénore was over the moon!

But one of the best discoveries was the daffodils.

There is hope back in the garden my friends!

Also, today is ZE day when I reveal the winner of this OWOH event.

It has been a wonderful ride from blog to blog, discovering new universes, new people and new friends!

The Orphans of Sainte Cécile

Dear blog friends during this very busy time of OWOH,

I am happy to discover new blogs and meet new blog friends.

As I promised, here is an extract of the diary found recently.

It is written in French so I thought I would translate it for you.

In fact, I am translating the whole journal and...

puting it into a book!

Woohoo!!!!!!!!!

It is time cosuming but I cannot wait to share with you the journal of Marie, little girl aged 9 in an Orphanage called Sainte Marie .

I won't tell toooOooOOooo much but I am excited to share the news with you as the idea of this story started here on Blogland.

"25th September 1939
The holidays are over, but Miss Rochefort is a very interesting Teacher. She is so nice that I even want to like mathematics!
Solange has become my best friend. Her bed is near mine in the dormitory. Solange has never known her father and says her mother use to work in a circus. One day, the magician made her disappear and since then she’s never reappeared! I don’t really know what to think..."

I would be extreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeemely happy to hear what you think.

Much love to you all dear blog friends!

OWOH 2011! Her we go!!!

Hello dear blog friends, old and new.

Today has started our wonderful journey fot the 5th and last OWOH event hosted by Lisa Swifka.

What an amazing idea!

Now that you have landed on my little planet, I am going to tell you a little story and if you are kind enough to leave a comment here, you might even win one of the characters of the( very) short tale that begins right now...

there was a young girl who just loved to have fun!

But the only place where she could go to enjoy herself was the local fair where she use to buy some of her favourite treats.

She kept on dreaming that one day she could go to a bal.

A masquerade!

The sweet little thing didn't have a mask to go to such a grand party.

She was on her own wondering how she could go to a bal and maybe make new friends

all of a sudden a wonderful lady with a mask appeared near her .

The young girl asked if she could borrow the mask from her so she could go to the bal.

The lady ( who was a Fairy) made some magic and...

WOOHOO!!!

( yes this is a very modern tale)

a beautiful mask appeared !

The pretty girl and the beautiful Fairy became great friends and had lots of Tequila and had great fun at the bal !

OK...

My point is not that dolls just wanna have fun and drink Tequila , ok?

My point IS:

Do you want to win this little dolly with her brand new mask ?

Well ,just leave a comment here and I will draw a name on the 17th February!

Sooooooo easy!!!

For those who don't know me:

Here is a photo .

I am not sad on this photo, I am deeeeeeeeeeeeeep in my thoughts!

I am a doll artist, story teller and big daydreamer.

For those who know me:

Look! I have brushed my hair today! Yes, I do make efforts for very special occasions.

Teehee!

HAVE A HAPPY OWOH!

A Diary!!!

Dear friends,

today I have discovered a diary!!!

It seems that it belonged to a little girl whose name was Marie Dedieu.

I am so ...oh...I think there are no words to describe what I feel.

A photo has just fallen on the floor .

It feels like I know them...a bit like old friends that you find again...

I cannot wait to read all that is inside even though it seems that a little voice keeps on whispering " It's a secret!".

I have got to read it!

I have put a little red ribbon around it so no more photos can fall from the diary.

I will return to you as soon as I will know more.
