From a Friend Friday: June 14th!

I hope you had a week full of fun!! We got SO many doll pictures sent in this week and I'm excited to share them with you! Take a look...

Noelle's doll Emma is loving the blanket she won from our ItsyBitsyTreats Giveaway!

She was being silly with our business card too--haha!

 Today at "camp" Jordy's doll Fey decided to climb a tree!

Caitlyn's doll Rebecca is looking gorgeous in the Sew Goes It dress she won from our Giveaway!

From Christa--Ursula, Marisol, Kanani, Steve and McKenna are sitting down, holding hands, and praying for all the dolls and for me and my family.

Jan's doll Felicity is all ready for a party!

Kate's doll Scarlet had a photoshoot, say cheese! :)

She loved to pose!

Kate's other doll Chrissa wanted to join in on the photo fun too!

Ana Leigh's doll Kit is getting ready for bed!

She gave Kit a new hairstyle too!

Ana Leigh and Kit smile for the camera. :)

And, Ana Leigh's doll Felicity got a fortune cookie! Wonder what her fortune is?

From Christian Homeschooler--My dolls and my sisters' dolls are enjoying Camp Doll Diaries which is hosted by http://www.dolldiaries.com.  Samantha, Josefina, Felicity, and Millie are roasting marshmallows.  Violet is eating a smore, since she already roasted her marshmallow.  Amelia is playing campfire songs on her banjo. The rest of the girls are waiting their turn to roast a marshmallow, because there aren't enough roasting sticks for everyone to use one at once.

Josefina is roasting her marshmallow to perfection. She doesn't like them burned, just brown on the outside. Josefina is loving Camp!

Elsie loves her smore, especially the chocolate. It is so delicious!

Samantha doesn't like her marshmallows too brown. The marshmallow she roasted is just perfect for her!

Lacey's doll Lanie is exploring the yard and stopping to pose near the orange Lilies and smell the lavender.

She--and the flowers--are so pretty! :)

From a Friend: Molly's Way to Go Walk!

Here's a fun photostory made by my friend Bethany for From a Friend Friday! Hope you enjoy! :)

One day Molly decided to go on a walk with her dog, Pepper.

Then she ran into her BFF Kaya who was going to a party. Kaya needed help because her taxi was late, and she needed a ride to the party.

While they were talking Pepper managed to get away! Molly ran after him. She chased him into a great big meadow. Then all the sudden he stopped.

Pepper stopped right in front of a horse. No wonder he ran off. He was trying to show them that Kaya could get to the party on time if she road the horse.

Kaya was on the horse in no time and on her way to the party.

Molly waved good bye to Kaya, and thanked Pepper. What a walk!

Thanks so much for sharing with us, Bethany! Pepper is SO cute! :)

From a Friend: Make Sailboat Cupcake Picks!

My friend Anna has a great Summer craft for dolls today, for From a Friend Friday! Without further ado, here she is...

Hi everyone! These are Sailboat Cupcake Picks, I think they'd be really cute at a summer doll tea party!

What you'll need:  

• Hot Glue Gun,
  
• Pen or Pencil,
  
• Construction paper in at least 3 colors (I suggest brown and 2 colors like orange and green)
• Tooth picks 
  

What to do: Trace triangles onto the construction paper about 11/2 inches tall. (There's a close up of the shape at the end of the post) and then glue one triangle to a toothpick, like in the pic above.

Glue another triangle in a different color, like above. There's your sail!

Cut out a shape like this one.  Glue it right under the sail, with only a TINY bit of space between.

Like this!

A close-up of the boat shape.

And of the sail shape!

And then put them on your doll cupcakes! :D
Enjoy!

Thanks so much for sharing with us, Anna! Those cupcake picks are too adorable, my dolls will have to make some for their next party! :)
