Countdown to Christmas- Day Twenty! Today's featured Christmas card is one I did last year for Doll Divas message board. It features Ginger coming down to the staircase to carols on the record player, and the tree decorated with presents. I really loved doing this diorama and it was harder than you might think staging everything just right for the camera.
Countdown to Christmas- Day Nineteen! Today's featured post is last years' Christmas card I created for The Studio Commissary Message board for Gene Marshall dolls. I participate in this Christmas card exchange each year as do 30-40 other people and it is alot of fun! I also participate in the Doll Divas Message Board card exchange too. Each year I participate in these card exchanges with custom created doll themed Christmas cards using my dolls and props, and I save the cards I receive in albums year to year. I enjoy looking at the cards I save year to year, as Christmas cards are becoming a lost thing of the past, with technology taking over our lives; and I treasure the cards people take the time to create with their dolls. Here is the one I created for the Studio Commissary this year.
Stay tuned for more Countdown to Christmas!
Countdown to Christmas- Day Eighteen! Since my collection is depleted on Christmas Barbies, Today's featured doll is Caroling Fun Barbie. These dolls were known as Grocery store dolls or were sold at Target back in the 1990s. I purchased this doll at the doll show last year and did a diorama with my Possible Dreams caroling Santa and Snowwoman with all of my lit trees and mirrored ''lake'' (a $5 boudoir perfume mirror from the Dollar General).
Countdown to Christmas- Day Seventeen! Today's Featured doll is Happy Holidays Barbie 2023 , dressed in a gold gown with a sheer caplet.
Countdown to Christmas- Day Sixteen! Today's featured doll is a classic Christmas Barbie- the one everyone calls the 'Santa Barbie' one of the most recognized and lovely dolls. 2007 Happy Holidays Barbie, dressed in a red Satin gown made to look like a Santa suit, with white fur trim and belt, and gloves, she looks like Christmas.

Countdown to Christmas- Day Fifteen! Featured today is 2006 Happy Holidays Bob Mackie Barbie- they truly hit the mark out of the park with this lovely doll. I do not yet have 2005 Happy Holidays as I am still looking for a good price with reasonable shipping on that doll. This lovely lady features the Bob Mackie facemold, one of my personal favorites, with black velvet gown that seems to be based on Russian regalia/ coronation robes, studded with faux gems, and her headpiece is the same, and edged with faux white fur. One of my absolute favorites.
