Good Morning:
Wow, it's been a busy couple of weeks, with no time left for my morning blog. I have a fairly calm week planned, so I am hoping to have some extra time to catch up with all of my blog friends.
Here in the Southern California desert, we are wrapped in smoke from the many wildfires crackling out of control. The Santa Ana winds blew hard all weekend and have left the streets littered with debris. Once the winds have stopped, we will be in for quite a clean up. The back patio is covered in a thin film of grime and dry dust, and stray leaves have whirlwinded their way into each nook and cranny on our front porch.
********************************************
I finally managed to get a couple of Halloween articulated paper dolls finished and listed in My Etsy Shop. Normally, I list prints of my paper dolls, but I'm selling the originals this time. I might offer them in print form at a later date. Here they are:
Articulated Halloween Jack-O-Lantern Paper Doll
Articulated Halloween Humpty Dumpty Jack-O-Lantern Paper Doll
Both of these paper dolls will include a length of magnet that can be applied by the buyer if they choose.
As always, if you are interested in these paper dolls but don't have an Etsy account, just go to my blog profile and send me an email. I'm offering them with free shipping and a free ACEO print of your choice from my Etsy shop.

Looks like I'm off for the day. Out to get material for my daughter's Halloween costume. She's going to be "Link" from the Zelda series of video games. Also, I'm almost finished with a collage ACEO and hope to get it listed on Etsy sometime tomorrow. It's another from my "Best Friends Forever" series.
Until Next Time:

Hi Kim,
Love the paper dolls.
I just cleaned the oven. That was bad enough. Can't imagine the clean up you've got ahead.
Good luck and happy fabric hunting.

When I heard of the fires my first thought was of you! I'm so glad you are safe. I love your paper dolls! You have such a whimsical mind. It's lovely! Have been thinking of your mom as well. She remains in my prayers. Hope all is well.

I hope you're doing well through all of these fires. We are doing ok, since Idyllwild and it's surroundings are not burning (as I knock on wood). But we are very unnerved, and were out of power for 30 hours! Pray for rain!!
Your Halloween paper dolls are so wonderful!!
