Commissioned portraits of my DD girls from Nekopon

I am a HUGE fan of custom portraits of my DD girls
(or any of my girls, for that matter)

So when Nekopon said
"I'm thinking of taking commissions"
I said...
"SIGN ME UP!"

Here are the beautiful, beautiful pieces she created:

 Left to Right: Jun, Alna, Pidge

 I commissioned her for 3 ACEO card pencil sketches... and they turned out SO cute!
I'm already on the list to get another commission from her.

If you're interested in commissioning Nekopon yourself, you can find her:

On deviantART:

On flickr:

On Wordpress:

or on the Dollfie Dream forum where she has a commission thread:

Here are photos of the girls I commissioned her to draw:

Adoption Time!

I just wanted to let you all know I've put some of the girls up for adoption!
Don't worry... their characters will remain...
I just want to replace them with other Neemo girls, lol!

Please go check it out:

Alisa gets a letter!

Alisa: Oh! Hello!! I know it's been quiet a lot here lately, but that doesn't mean we're gone!
I have the most wonderful penpal in Melany!
Soon I will be shipping off a holiday present for her, and I hope she enjoys it...
but first... look at this lovely card she sent!

Alisa: Her penmanship is just beautiful!

Alisa: Look! There is a map too, so I can see where she's been! What a wonderfully exotic place!

Alisa: My necklace is even an anchor... it's a hint... Heather should send me on a cruise!

OOAK Necklaces

Sorry for my Wednesday Delay... I've failed miserably... illness has gotten the better of me.
... I hope you guys will still be willing to make it through the massive update when I post it...
maybe I'll break it down into a few days worth of posts.

I have been doodling and making little necklaces while I lay at home though:

I've made some OOAK necklaces :)
They're in my etsy shop:

Back in Business!!

FINALLY!!!

Expect a horrible Wednesday tomorrow!

For now, Pidge would like to show off her new dress,
and the purse I made!


The dress is made by Dollheart, but the purse is by me!
(There will soon be a Dia De Los Muertos one as well!)


This little skull purse is fully functional (the next pic shows it open)
and is entirely hand sewn using embroidery techniques!
The strap is a beautiful, silk, hand dyed ribbon with an extra silk, hand dyed bow tied on.


Here it is open, as you can see, it has a snap closure, and you can put
fun little dolly things inside!


Pidge: It's so lovely out... but getting cold. Maybe I need a scarf?


I just love this dress, it's so perfectly Pidge XD


This purse, along with the soon to come Dia De Los Muertos purse
are my own design, and will soon be heading to my 
etsy shop!

Experiencing Technical Difficulties!

Hey all!

Just a quick note... 
Wednesday Horrors for this week is done and ready to go,
but we're experiencing technical difficulties over here
with uploading pictures...
They were hoping to have the issue fixed yesterday,
but it didn't happen,
so I'm hoping it gets done today!

You should see a post
today or tomorrow!

A Little Bit of Random

Let us begin this 'little bit of random' with my BPAL order.

What is BPAL, you ask?
It's the Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab
but most people I know call it BPAL for short.

Go HERE to check them out!


My first scent to arrive is BOO 2012
It came with two free samples, which I'll talk about as well!

(BPAL's description)
Eerie billows of spun sugar, fluttering white cotton, and sheets of cream.

BOO 2012 has a very strong, sharp scent when you first put it on...
so at first I wasn't a fan of it.
I also have BOO 2010, which I love for
it's soft, sweet scent.
BOO 2012 is the same as Boo 2010 in the undertones,
but it has that sharp, strong overtone that makes me like it a little less.
Fortunately though, it dulls down into a much more pleasant
scent, and that sharp edge dissipates.
I've been wearing it for 9 hours now,
and the scent is still there, but soft and lovely now.
It's a fun scent, but not my favorite of The Halloweenies scents
that I currently own.

Free Sample #1: 
Imperious Tiger-Lily 
from the Mad Tea Party: Garden of Live Flowers collection 

(BPAL's description)
`O Tiger-lily,' said Alice, 
addressing herself to one that was 
waving gracefully about in the wind,
 `I wish you could talk!'

`We can talk,' said the Tiger-lily: 
`when there's anybody worth talking to."

Alice was so astonished that 
she could not speak for a minute: 
it quite seemed to take her breath away. 
At length, as the Tiger-lily only went on waving about, 
she spoke again, in a timid voice -- 
almost in a whisper. `And can all the flowers talk?'

`As well as you can,' said the Tiger-lily. 
`And a great deal louder.'

(Tiger-lily, ginger root, neroli, purple fruits, and frankincense.)
 

If you like the way Lilies smell, you'll like this one.
It's strong and floral.
This one lasted for many hours (9+)
with a very pleasant, distinguishable scent.
While it smells nice, strong floral scents
aren't really my thing, so I won't be
ordering any of this one.

Free Sample #2:  
Hellfire
from the Sin and Salvation collection 
 
(BPAL's description)
A scent celebrating Sir Francis Dashwood's 
Order of the Knights of St. Francis of Wycombe, 
also known as the Hellfire Club. 
A swirl of pipe tobacco, hot leather, 
ambergris, dark musk 
and the lingering incense smoke 
from their Black Mass.

I loved this scent. It was sweet
and beautiful... but unfortunately
it only lasted an hour or so.

--------------------------------------------------
 
So that was my first BPAL order of the year.
I'll be placing an order every two weeks until I get all the
Halloweenies I want... and all of them
will come with free samples... so I'm
looking forward to checking out more scents from them.

I'm also a collector of Nendoroids...
and I admit, I buy them on how cute they are,
not what anime they come from -_-;;

So here are two of the girls who hang out on my desk:
Kuroneko:
Kuroneko: Heather, you are so stupid, what did I tell you about eating too much chocolate?!
Kuroneko likes to yell at me ;_;

And Miki:
She always flinches when Kuroneko starts yelling!

Pout

Coraline is such a little pout-face.
It's ok, I think Jun is happy enough for both of them.

Friday Drawing

Hello!

For the next few weeks (until the week of Halloween),
Friday Funnies will just be Friday Drawing...
for two reasons!

1. I'm working on a lot of drawings right now for Holiday Crafts
that will be sold in my etsy shop... and it's taking a lot of my
drawing time and energy, lol!

2. Friday Funnies tell the story of The Majokko Shop...
so while I've currently got the Wednesday Horrors
photostory going up...
I don't want to make things confusing by posting
the Friday Funnies... with a totally different
storyline, but the same characters, LOL!!

So... on to a picture of some drawings!


These are part of a project that will soon show up
on my etsy shop. I'll post another pic when
the pieces are fully put together. :)

She has covered her laptop in some stickers...
but still wants to put more on 0_0

Wednesday Horrors: Episode 2, Unwell

Episode 2:
------------------------------------------
 Today we find Pidge fretting over a slew of sick Neemos.
No one is quite sure what's going on...
but there seems to be a flu that has hit the Neemo community hard.

Pidge: Oh, you guys, are you sure you're comfortable?
Does anyone need more tea? Snacks? Blankets?!

Anna: Calm down, Pidge *coughcough*
It's just a little *cough* flu, we'll be fine.

Bunny: *cough* Yes, don't worry, Pidge, it's the flu.
Kana: *coughsnifflecough* I feel dizzy @_@
Bunny: It's the plot of this show, it's very confusing.

 On the screen, Pretty Little Liars plays, but most of the Neemos
are only vaguely aware that the TV is even on. It's mostly there
to comfort Pidge, she loves this show (even though it makes her nervous).

Carrot: *her voice is barely a whisper* Pidge... I... I don't feel very good.

Pidge: Oh! Little Carrot... you don't look so good!
You're so pale! I'm going to find help!

Alna: Did I hear somebody call for help? I have arrived!!

Pidge: *hops off the couch and runs over to Alna* Oh Alna!
Alna: What is it?! You're even more nervous than usual!
Pidge: It's the Neemos, they're all sick... and Carrot looks REALLY bad!
Alna: That's not good... weren't they fine yesterday?
Pidge: Yes, it came on all of a sudden.  ;_;

*Alna and Pidge go over to check on Carrot*
Alna: Oh, little Carrot, you look terrible... and Luna! You look so pale!
Luna: Oh no, I'm always pale.
Anna: It's true *cough*, she is... but Carrot looks *coughcough* a little pale. Will she be ok?
Alna: *places a hand on Carrot's forehead* Oh! She's burning up!

 *At the other end of the couch*
Bunny: Will Carrot be ok, Jun?
Jun: *pats Bunny's head* It's just a little flu, sweetie...
I'm sure she'll be up and running in no time.

*Suddenly, though, Carrot starts wildly thrashing about*
Pidge: OH NO! What's happening?
Anna: Carrot? CARROT! Something is wrong!!!
Luna: This is NOT Nargels.
Alna: HOLD HER DOWN!

 *As quickly as the thrashing begins, before anyone can even
move to react, it stops. Carrot is still, and the room is silent,
except for the quiet murmuring of characters on TV*
Alna: *whispers* Carrot?

 Jun: Oh my goodness... is she ok? Did she have a seizure?!

Alna: Carrot?

Pidge: Alna... what is it? Why isn't she moving?!

Alna: *touches her hand to Carrot's forehead* Because... because she's dead.

Tune in next Wednesday for Episode 3 in this 
8 Episode Saga!
