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.

Gracelyn June at Summer's End

Summer is coming to an end. Gracelyn wanted a few photos taken before the flowers go away. Gracelyn loves her puppy which was a gift from Trish. She is wearing a dress made by Darla's Delights.

Gracelyn is a 13" Little Darling sculpted by Dianna Effner and painted by Geri Uribe.

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.

 Brooke Marie, who was also painted by Joyce Matthews with Shelby Faith.

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

Gracelyn Shows Off Her Wild Side

I ordered my first Tibettain Mohair wig. I wasn't sure what to expect. It was pretty fluffy when it arrived. So I wet it, and put some hair gel on it. After it dried, it looks a lot better. It's still a little wild, especially for innocent Gracelyn, but fun.

The wig was made by Michelle Hardy and is Maize in color. Click here for her website. She has quite a variety of wigs from which to choose.

Gracelyn June

Gracelyn June was originally Chantal by Geri Uribe. When I first discovered Effner Little Darling dolls, I was smitten by Gracelyn because she looked like me a child. I'm so thrilled to have her. She is very fair and the most innocent looking of my Little Darlings.

This is me at five years old going off to Kindergarten. What do you think? Do we look alike?
