Biddy Tutorial Links
Greetings and good morning! The response for the Character Contest and Trailer Park are fantastic! I have updated the resident web page and all *trailer lots* listed in green are taken. Its fun just to read the descriptions and see what ones - hit people's fancy!
As you may have read --- I convinced JIL to clear off all her emails from the computer last night and start fresh back on the list! So for those wanting to sign up for the sculpting baby class this month ... Now is the time! JIL will be sending out the pdfs and class info this weekend, to register, simply email her at thedognanny@gmail.com
Have you made a Flamingo Fanny or Bodacious Biddy in the past ??? Or new and don't know what we are talking about? Here is a link to both *ladies* for that Character month ....
http://www.frillsandfancyezine.com/FF1/cover.html ... This was one of our most popular FF issues yet --- full of characters and hints and how to's.
That should give you some wonderful inspiration! Happy Creating!

MAY CONTEST - NEW!
Greetings and Good Evening to everyone! Are you ready for a new adventure into miniature doll making? We've had pretty Cinderella dresses, Art Deco, April is King and Queens ... but MAY ... is CHARACTER MONTH!
Thats right! Time to get out your humor, fun, loud prints and create your very own biddy, buddy or special Character.
Now before I go any further.... this months theme ... is to be taken in a humorous light! In the last 10 years ... our biggest participation in events ... have been with dolls - that are *larger* then life. And since we are incorporating a web theme/event/showcase all in one ... we drew out a new setting that would give everyone the most options for a doll scene in this *Character Theme*.
This topic is not ment to belittle anyone ... living here ... but simply provide a colorful background for our FICTIONAL DOLL STORY. If you are offended, please skip this month and participate in one of the other contests that is more in your comfort level.
Now that the *warning* is out of the way ... sign up ... get that spot in the contest and lets create!!!
MAY EVENT
HAPPY CREATING!
