My 19 year old son was kind enough to renew my Somerset Magazine subscription this year. I just got my first one the other day and was delighted to find they'd included one of my paper dolls from last spring.

Not the best photo here ...I called her "Fleurish"...fun to make and one of those creations that came out of nowhere and that I had made in a very short time. I love when things happen like that...almost as though they get made by themselves and not by me!

A few pages later I spied another one of my dolls, but was a little sad to see they'd credited her to someone else.



Kind of bugged me at first, and a few people like my mom and a friend told me to let the editor know...but really, is it all that important? I don't know. I was very careful in labeling my entries, but mistakes happen...just the way it goes. I'm not even sure who I'd write to...so I may just let it go.

I've been making some new cards and soap lately. Soap is so relaxing to do. Have more crowns, shoes, and fleur de lys's made, so if anyone is interested, just let me know.

Here's a few pics of those...nothing earth shaking, just fun and quick.

This a collage I did digitally and then made into a card.


This is from a photo of one of my dogs in an old antique wagon.


I'm adding a "Princess" crown pewter charm for the dog's crown, to be sold on ebay.


I call this fragrance "Pink Candy"...it is so sweet and almost makes you want to eat it!!!



Cinderella's shoe or Marie's shoe??? Not sure, but it smells like fresh blueberries...or some sort of berry!



This color was supposed to be "robin egg's blue"...I don't think so! To me it is definitely a grey/blue, not a robin egg's color, not sure they ever saw the real thing. LOL Anyway, it's definitely a wedgewood blue, but still kind of pretty.

Made lots of others, but too lazy to take more pics!

Enjoy the weekend!!
