justmesue Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Your pics are fabulous! So happy it stopped storming, so you Girls could step out... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beyondbaffled Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Emma and Jack will be leaving us soon so I wanted to have a group portrait made so that Emma would have something to take home with her to remember us by. Since she was visiting an old west saloon the potrait had to be one of those old-timey looking sepia ones. We're going to miss Emma so much when she leaves!

justmesue Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 I totally love the portrait!!! Wouldn't mind having one for my own collection!! Great job! So where are the lovebirds off to next? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beyondbaffled Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Suzanne I think it may be Texas next? I need to email Elsbeth to find out for sure. Also Suzanne the little "frame" that I used was actually one of those necklase pendants that they sell at Michael's. I just broke the tab off of the top so it looks like a mini frame instead. I was lucky and found a whole set of pendants and earrings that were the perfect size for frames and I bought every one I could find. And I just used the software on my computer to turn the picture into sepia. Now the resizing was the hard part, it took me a couple of tries to get it right and make everything look proportional. Then I used the little picture that had been in the center of pendant and traced around it to make the portrait fit in the frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pastalinda Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Very nice framed portrait. I have a question. Is the photo album I started for Emma still in her box? I was hoping others would add to it, or Elsbeth can do it when Emma gets home. Thanks, Linda P. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beyondbaffled Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Yes, Emma still has her album - her box of goodies seems to keep expanding! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beyondbaffled Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 Just wanted to let you guys know that Emma and Jack left today. We were sorry to see them go, but I know they were eager to continue their journey. I pm'd the shipping info to Elsbeth. And I wanted to say thanks to everyone for making this travel doll project so much fun. I really enjoyed taking the pictures of Emma and sharing them with all of you. And just maybe by the time the next traveling doll comes along I'll have a finished dollhoue for him/her to stay in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pastalinda Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 Thank you for making her journey so much fun to continue following. She is having a wonderful time and so are we. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janet Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 Thanks for sharing your pictures with us, Jess. Emma certainly didn't look as though she objected to staying in an unfinished house. She and Jack seemed to be having a great time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LLyn M. Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 EMMA and JACK are here in sunny Texas.They came aprox 20 mins ago.No pics yet. Camera is recharging!! LOL-it's always something!! Will send soon! :thumb: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justmesue Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Oh so happy to hear they have arrived!! I get as worried about her/them in transit, as I would a beloved family friend/member. Emma will always be special to us here, and her fiance is too.. They are welcome back here anytime. Eagerly awaiting pics of them in Texas...

beyondbaffled Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 I'm glad to hear that the happy couple arrived as well. This travel doll project has been so much fun that I almost wish we had some sort of mini exchange group or something. I loved taking the pictures of Emma, but making minis to send (and recieving them as well!) is such a treat! Can't wait for pics of Emma and Jack in Texas!

CheckMouse Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 So much fun to catch up on Emma's travels, and now with her new traveling companion! I've been working long hours and haven't been able to get onto the Forum for awhile. Glad to hear they arrived in Texas safely, and hopefully they won't catch Swine Flu with all their travels. Those airports / post offices can be germy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
