3 Tiered Cake & Strawberry Tart - Alice in Wonderland

I think it took me all of yesterday just to decorate these cakes...lol
I hand painted the intricate decorations on the 3 Tiered Cake with polymer clay mixed with liquid polymer clay.  Available in my Etsy Shop.

Miniature Almond Panna Cotta with Mocha Sauce

My very first try at something new...Almond Panna Cotta with Mocha Sauce.  Had to think about how to make the almonds...so I rolled out a stick of clay...baked it... then sliced diagonal slivers in almond shapes...and shaded the edges with Heat Set Paint.  They were so tiny!

Back to Sculpting my Art Dolls

This is a Custom Baby Mousling I worked on last week...I'm so happy to be sculpting my babies and Art Dolls again...haven't in a while.  Although they are not 1:12 Scale, they are quite small at just 3 1/2" Long.  The little basket she is displayed in only measures 2".  I also love to crochet so her soft, sqishy body was crocheted by me and is jointed too, so she is very poseable.
Well...I goofed on  my Website while adding some content and now it's down and my Computer Geek of a husband just doesn't have the time to figure out the prolem...so I decided to also include some other pictures of my art dolls here on my blog.  When I first started sculpting I only sculpted Babies and Little Dollhouse Fairies.  But now I LoVe to sculpt just about anything that catches my fancy.

The March Hare ooak Sculpt - Alice in Wonderland

I'm currently in the middle of sculpting a Custom Ordered March Hare with Fabric Clothing...but because I haven't found the right fabric yet I am unable to complete him...just yet.
So I decided to sculpt another March Hare with Sculpted Polymer Clay Clothing.  Cakes & Table were handmade by me, the Chair was purchased.  You can click on the link below to see his auction:

Added the Store Front & Roof to my Shop

I'm so happy I was able to add a Store Front & Flip Top Roof to my Handmade Roombox.  I ended up cutting the plexiglass myself and built the store front with Trimmings & Pieces that I purchased and cut to fit into place.  This was my first attempt at somthing like this...so now I think I will be more confident when putting a kit together or maybe even building another shop from scratch...so this was a wonderful stepping stone for me.  I must admit I think I changed the interior wallpaper about 3 times...lol  But this time around I think these tones add warmth to my little shop.  Also, the little girl I sculpted last month finally found a place to call her own...I made a new dress for her and tied her hair up and I just love her so much more now.

Fondant Rose Cakes

If I could sculpt Fondant Rose Cakes all day long...I would be so very happy :o)  I find sculpting the Roses to be really relaxing.  I made these a few weeks back...not much going on right now with my sculpting...I really need to start working on something new.  I have been spending way too much time putting the finishing touches on my Mini Roombox Bakery and going back and forth to the miniature store to buy trimming and things for the store front and roof.  Still need to add the roof and buy the plexiglass for the windows.  Will definitely post pics...once the store front is in place.
