Brooke Marie Loves Minnie

My family and I love visiting Disney Land. My daughters are obsessed with Elsa and Ariel. So I wanted to have an outfit representing Disney for my Little Darlings. Trish Breisch made a wonderful Minnie outfit. I love all of the matching buttons. They are even polkadot to match Minnie's dress. 

 Brooke is an Dianna Effner 13" sculpt #1 Little Darling hand painted by Joyce Mathews.

Spring Photos with the Pansies

The weather is finally warm enough to take some photos outside with the happy yellow pansies. Here are some photos of my girls. Jade is missing, because her photo came out blurry. I will have to do another shoot with her.

Brooke Marie was painted by Joyce Mathews. She is wearing an outfit by Maggie and Kate Create.

Brynn Elise was painted by Dianna Effner herself. She is also wearing an outfit by Maggie and Kate Create.

 Lauryn Elizabeth was painted by Dianna Effner, and she is wearing an outfit by Shara. She is the newest girl to my little family. She arrived two days before Christmas.

Brynn and Lauryn together as both were painted by Dianna. They show the differences between the #1 and #2 sculpts.

Jade who was painted by Lana Dobbs and Lauryn who was painted by Dianna Effner shown together. They are both the same sculpt, but I think they look very different due to the talented artists interpretation.

Finally all of my #2 sculpts show even more of a difference in the each artist's beautiful vision for the doll. The doll on the right is Shelby, who was painted by Nelly Valentino. Aren't the differences amazing between these pretty girls?

Here is Shelby Faith alone. She was painted by Nelly Valentino and is wearing an overall outfit made by Trish.

 My kids think that Tessa Jane looks like Rapunzel in this wig. She was painted by Lana Dobbs.

Alyssia Kaye was painted by Joyce Mathews and is wearing an outfit designed and made by Trish.

Gracelyn June was painted by Geri Uribe and is wearing an outfit by Darla's Delights. I think she looks like the youngest of my girls.

Tessa and Gracelyn together.

Tessa, Gracelyn, and Alyssia together. Again, this photo shows how unique each artist makes these pretty girls. They are all the same sculpt #1. But each were painted by a different artist.

Brooke with her Beret

This lovely outfit was made by Magda in France. I love her creations and it seems to suit Brooke and her blue eyes.

Brooke is a Effner Little Darling painted by Joyce Mathews.

Shelby and Her Sisters

Just a few comparison photos to show how Shelby fits in with her sisters...

 Alyssia and Shelby. Alyssia was painted by Joyce Matthews. Shelby was painted by Nelly Valentino.

And finally, Gracelyn June and Shelby Faith pose together. Gracelyn was painted by Geri Uribe.

Brooke Marie

I've had Brooke for a few months, but I'm finally getting around to posting photos of her. She was painted and costumed by Joyce Matthews. I saw this photo on Joyce's Facebook page and loved her. So when I received an opportunity from another board member to purchase her, I quickly did.

Here is her photo from Joyce.

And here she is at home...
