sewing win

Sorry for the lack of posts lately. I had a super awesome blog post written and tried to upload it, but unfortunately it won't upload correctly. So I will try again some other time instead.

Today I made a super awesome dress! If I may say so myself. If you want to see pictures of it, go to my Flickr photostream, HERE.

As a preview, here is something my genius brain thought of! It's a fake magazine cover. I'm thinking about doing one every month, and you guys can print them out, if you want. :)

Enjoy the Flickr pics!

Love, Lena

personal photo challenge

Now that I have a good forum for uploading pictures, I've decided to do a one-a-week photo challenge. I'm going to take at least one good doll photo per week and upload it to Flickr. I don't know how long this will last, but my goal is 8 weeks.

I'll probably put other pictures up as well,but the challenge photos will be labeled by week.

You can see my Flickr photostream here.

new flickr

I decided to make a Flickr photostream, since so many people have them, and it looks like it will be a fun adventure!

You can find my photostream here.

I'll also make a tab for it at the top.

Enjoy the photos!

jessa gives up on humanity

Jessa decided to go back out the the beach and read for a while. It seems like that is her favorite thing to do nowadays.

She grabbed her book and towel and headed out.

When she got outside, Jessa saw Sara, supposedly laying out in the sun. That couldn't be good.

As Jessa came nearer Sara asked, "Emily, is that you coming?"

"Um, no, it's me, Jessa." She replied. "And why are you waiting for Emily?" "Oh, she's -- here she comes!"

Emily came from the house, wearing an apron and carrying a glass of pink lemonade.

"Here you go, Miss Alcott," Emily said, handing Sara the lemonade. "Thanks, Emily."

"Is there anything I can get you, Miss McConnell?" Emily asked Jessa.

"No, of course not, Emily. And you shouldn't let Sara boss you around like that."

 

"Okay." Emily left without another word. She seemed glad to be rid of her servant-ly duties.

 

 

After Emily left, Jessa admonished Sara. "You know, you really shouldn't boss Emily around like that. She's your sister, not your servant!"

 

 

"Uh, Jesus said to have a servant's heart. So Emily has a servant's heart for me!"

 

 

Jessa left exclaiming, "Ugh! I give up on humanity!"

 

 



"Yeah, I don't see what her problem is either."

{Sorry the pictures are so bad, I'm still trying to figure out this sun.}

agc conflict

So as you all know, I am participating in season 9 of the AGC. The theme for round 3 is "adventure". I've taken two photos, but I'm conflicted as to which one to use.

Photo op #1:

Definitely my favorite regarding quality. However, it doesn't convey creativity with the theme, which is what they are looking for.

Photo op #2:

This photo definitely conveys the creativity they are looking for (Um, I built a pyramid out of bricks!), but also lacks the quality that is also looked for in the entry photo.

Which one do you think I should submit? Please vote in the poll to the right by January 31st. I will let you know which one I submit!

Thank you for your help!
