Deema, a Bubble Guppy inspired doll

After making so many Oonas, I was thrilled to get the chance to try a different character!

(Side note: As I write this post, Bubble Guppies is playing in the other room. Very appropriate.)

This is Deema!

Let me tell you, this girl has some HAIR!

Yes, you get a photo of the back of her head...because I spent many, many hours sewing those little circles on (and embroidering a little "swirl" in each one!).
It was worth it though. I love how it turned out!

 

She turned out a bit taller than Oona (11.5 inches tall), but it's just because of her very large hair. ;)

Deema was a custom order, so she's already been adopted!

I'll be back soon for a biiiiig Pocket Fluff update!
(Seriously, I just spent my day trying to keep 12 fluffs under control in the backyard. It was madness!)

Oona the 3rd

I'm sitting here, procrastinating.
I need to get back to work on my current doll, but she's one of those I have to work out how to make her in my head first.

Anyway, what better way to procrastinate than to get caught up on my blog?
At least it's productive...right??

Here's what's becoming a very familiar face around here....Oona!
We'll just call her Oona the 3rd.
Inspired by the Bubble Guppy by the same name! (And really, why must that song always get stuck in my head??)

I wanted a pic of all three Oonas together.
I think its funny how different she looks each time.
Just goes to show you, you're always going to get an OOAK doll, even when I make a repeat!

There's also been a couple of little "runt size" fluffs that have run through here.

This little one has already been adopted...and named Cutie! (Totally appropriate, in my opinion!)

This little guy is still looking for a home in the shop!

I actually have six fluffs on my desk, waiting to be photographed.
They are going somewhere special though...more on that to come later.

Well, back to work on the next doll! She's a pretty fun custom order.
Here's a hint...she's related to Oona.

Cotton Candy Monster and Lots of Fluffs!

Sheesh, can't believe so many weeks have passed since my last blog post.
It certainly hasn't felt like it.
I've been hard at work here working on a HUGE cuddle of fluffs, and a larger monster!
I've listed four of the fluffs so far, but I still have ten more faces to paint!

First, I want you to meet Cotton Candy!
She's pink and fluffy...and really, can you ask for anything more than that?

 

 

She wasn't always a monster.

 

 

She once was just regular candy floss at a carnival...until the carnival's magician scooped her up, pulled her out of his hat, and brought her to life!

She loves magic tricks and funny jokes.

 

Cotton Candy can be found in the shop here!

And here's the four newest Pocket Fluffs in the Scribble Doll family:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

While I'm writing this post, all these guys are still looking for homes in the shop!

Keep an eye on the shop for the next few days...I'm trying to add one or two fluffs every day as I finish them!

 

On the home front, I took a week off from sewing so we could take the kids on a little vacation to Hot Springs! It was a pretty easy going trip, which is perfect when you're vacationing with a 4 year old and an 18 month old.

 

 

The week after that we had a great Independence Day celebration.
We had a nice evening of family, BBQ, and the town's firework show.

How cute are these three little 4th of July cuties?
(The little one is my niece. Isn't she precious?)

Come to think of it, this has been the first "normal" week in awhile!
What have you guys been up to?



Popsicle and Yeppah Yeti

I just finished up these two monsters, and I love how they turned out!
Can't wait to make more in this style! :)

First, there's Popsicle.

 

Popsicle is a friendly little fluffy monster that just loves to play!


 He loves sunny, warm weather, and his favorite food is ice cream.

(Be careful though, he's been known to chase down the ice cream man!)

Popsicle wasn't in the shop for long before he was adopted. I'm going to miss that guy!

I've had this white fur sitting around for a bit, begging to become a yeti...so Yeppah was born.

Yeppah is a yeti, but never fear...she wouldn't dream of hurting anyone.

She's probably the gentlest yeti you'll ever meet.

She's not too happy with the high humidity here, and hopes to find a much cooler place to live (or at least someone with a good air conditioner!).

Yeppah is still looking for her home! She can be found here!
(By the way, I was trying to think of a name that started with the letter "Y" for this yeti...I started looking through baby names, and discovered Yeppah means "snow girl." Very appropriate, don't you think?)

Remember the birthday monster I made for my little guy?

He loves him! I even got a "Momma, I love you" out of it. :)
*sigh* Still can't believe he's four. Where does the time go?

Anyway, my desk is clear right now.
I always find that to be so exciting because of all the possibilities...soooo many things I've been wanting to work on, and now I can! If I could only decide what to do first...;)

What would you guys like to see in the shop?
More monsters? More fluffs?  More dolls?
All of the above? Hehe.

Four Little Fluffs

I just finished up four little Pocket Fluffs this week!

 

This guy found a home very quickly!

 

All of these little fluffs (except for the purple, black, and white one) are waiting to be adopted in the shop!

If you've been wanting a fluff, better grab one fast...they don't seem to stick around very long!

 

 

I've already started on some larger monsters for the shop!

Hopefully they'll be ready in a few days. :)

A Birthday Monster!

My little guy is turning 4 next week (June 8th).
He's been asking me for months to create a monster for him, so I knew I had to have him ready for his birthday!

He was VERY specific about what his monster should look like.
He had to have green hair, a blue face, black arms and legs, and blue shoes.

He's about 11 inches tall if you count his legs.

I love that he needed to wear blue shoes! :)

I am so thrilled with how this monster came out...I'm secretly glad he's for my son so he'll be living here!
I'm going to ask him for more monster making advice in the future. He seems to be pretty good at it!

I do think I need to make some more of these guys for the shop though...what do you think? :)

I also finished this little fluff today!
I'd tell you he's looking for a new home, but he found it not long after I put him in the shop!
He'll be making his way to Canada Friday :)

Hmm...what's next?
I'm not sure yet.
I have four little Pocket Fluff faces staring at me...I want to make another big monster...and I want to finally make a Cheshire cat for the shop!
So many plans, so little time. ;)

Apple Jack - another My Little Pony inspired plush!

Just finished up another My Little Pony plushie!
This time I was asked to make Apple Jack.

 

I've given up on any dreams of becoming a hatter, so she got a store bought cowboy hat, lol.

She'll be making her way to her new home tomorrow. Apparently, she has a very important birthday party to attend!

And speaking of birthdays, my next project is for a very special little boy's birthday! :)
(This little customer was VERY specific on what I needed to create so this should be quite fun!)
