avadThis post is in honor of someone who made me smile SUPERBIG this week! I got a real-live-handwritten letter and art in my mailbox from Chloe, the daughter of my friend maryann's current roomate. IN RAINBOW COLORS!!!!Thank you thank you Chloe!!!!! I love it!:)!
Tell me this isn't the sweetest thing EVer:
And she made a beautiful color drawing based on A Place for Us!:
I am beyond touched. I am melting into a puddle. dang.
Ok, so I had promised to post pics of my beloved Polly Pocket collection (she sent me pics of hers through M) and so Finally, Chloe, here they are (so sorry for the wait!):
These are the older kind, mostly from the 80's...and they're very small and fold up into cute little compacts of all shapes..hearts, flowers, books, etc!
The colors and playfulness of them inspire many of my artworks...and I used the titles in my last series of sparkleworlds!...here's a close-up of one of my favorites- Suki's Teahouse!
Here's the one that opens up from the bookshape! It's called 'Sparkle Snowland'!
This is probably my ABSOLUTE Favorite. This is 'Grandma's Cottage'. I made a large artwork based on this...*sigh*..but unfortunately the resin didn't work out..waah.This one opens up from the house shape.
And here's one more pic of a pretty teagarden one...the doors open and the swings go round and the little bunny pops up and down when you move Polly on the path..:)
I hope you enjoy the pictures! And thank you SO much again for my letter...it made me so happy.
