Seven Dwarfs Dress and Doll Dress

Hello everyone, are you surviving the heat where you live?  I sure is hot here! We are supposed to get some rain, maybe it will cool things off.
        I have cuteness overload for you. As I said before, my grand-daughters 3rd birthday is next month and I have been busy making things for her.  I made the cutest dress for her and her baby doll.

I wanted to make them as much alike as I could.

I found the seven dwarfs fabric at a fabric outlet in Virginia.      She loves her three little pigs dress so much so, I'm sure she will love this.

I couldn't use the seven dwarfs fabric for the doll dress because the print was to large so I went with the apple print and the same gingham check sleeve fabric. I LOVE the sweet little gingham check buttons!

Here is a look at the bodice which was a little tricky. 

I just love how the fabrics look together! There are those sweet little gingham check buttons!

I think the gingham check above the hem looks great! I did the same to the doll dress as well.

I hope you enjoyed seeing the dresses! I made another outfit for Ruby with matching doll outfit. I will post those as well.                   Thank you for stopping by and have a great evening (keep cool)!

Down on the Farm Magnetic Play Set

Hello everyone, I hope you have had a nice day! It has been very hot here! On top of that, my back has hurt all day soooo, I spent the most part of the day on a heating pad, thank goodness for air conditioning!
   I want to share the adorable play set that I made for my grand-daughter. Her 3rd birthday is coming up next month so I have been busy making things for her. This play set matches the cute down on the farm box birthday card I made for her. 

Here is the play sheet and box. I saw this on one of Doodlebug Designs post and I just absolutely new I had to make it for Ruby! I can't remember the designer but, thank you for telling how you made it!  

The play sheet is made from a cookie sheet. I decorated it with cardstock that I cut out for the landscape.

I decided to make my own box and I love how it turned out! The Doodlebug designer purchased a plastic box and decorated it.

Here is a photo of the attached lid. I glued it and then added brads.

There is a Velcro closure and gingham ribbon handle. I wanted the inside to be bright and cheerful.

There are sooooo many cute play pieces! House, barn, stable, sun, clouds, chicken coop, truck, tractor, lots of farm animals, flowers, seed packets, fence, trees, even a little worm.

Here are some of the pieces on the play sheet.

Here are some more of the cute pieces. There are just too many pieces to show all of them! I purchased the Doodlebug cut outs, laminated them and added magnetic tape to the backs of every piece.

Here is the play sheet, box of farm pieces and the box card I made for Ruby. I love the adorable set and I'm sure it will keep her busy creating different scenes for a while!  I would love to do more these for her. The possibilities are endless! Christmas, Halloween, Beach, Princess etc.,.  I am also working on a dress and a cute outfit for Ruby as well and will post them when I finish them.

I hope you enjoyed seeing the magnetic play set!   Thank you for stopping by and have a good evening!

Down on the Farm Birthday Box Card

Hello everyone, I hope you are having a good morning!  My grand-daughter Ruby's birthday is next month and she will be 3 (hard to believe) so I have been busy making things for her. I have made the cutest magnet game (using Doodlebugs Down on the Farm) and I am working on a dress and hopefully another outfit which I will post later. Everything (mostly) is a down on the farm theme.
   I am posting the card I made for her today.

Here is the box card I made using Doodlebug Designs adorable farm set.

I really love how it turned out!

This is the back of the card.

I used as many of the animals as I could. See the little goat and piggy.

And here is the little lamb and piggy.

I absolutely love the Doodlebug images and paper! Look at the little worm peeking out of the worm hole!

Adorable little critters!! I know Ruby will love it!

    Well I hope you enjoyed seeing my card.    Got to get busy on her dress!!  Thank you for stopping by and have a great day!
