Cecilia Said Red
When she was asked her favorite color, it came as no surprise that Cecilia said, "Red".
Cecilia is my Cinema Princess Blythe doll. I've twisted her hair up onto the back of her head (and held it in place with many hair clips). She is wearing the stock dress from Love Mission.

Pictures in the Clouds
When they had eaten all the picnic food they could manage, the girls relaxed on the quilt and looked for pictures in the clouds.
These Blythes are Lady Camellia (Neo), Cool Pool Lemonade (Middie), and a Littlest Pet Shop Blythe doll.

Happy Birthday!
I've made quite a few birthday photos since I started photographing Blythe. I like to post them on my friends' Facebook pages on their birthday, and I don't want to use the same picture all the time! Today's theme in the Blythe a Day group on Flickr is, indeed, Happy Birthday, because it is the birthday of the group's host. Happy birthday, Penelope!
This is Paisley, my Mandy Cotton Candy Blythe doll.

Blythe Rainbow
For quite some time, I've wanted to redo this picture of a line of rainbow-hued Blythes. I use this picture not only here on my blog, but also as the header for my Etsy shop and on my business cards. When the theme "rainbow" appeared in the Blythe a Day group on flickr this month, I knew the time had come to finally do it!
The picture below may look similar to the one at the top of my blog, but there are two main differences: all the dolls in this new picture are completely stock (because I realized that I prefer the stock Blythes, and that is now the focus of my collection), and their outfits and stands better reflect the rainbow theme. Also, I have become a better photographer and photo editor since the first picture! This new one is brighter and just overall BETTER than the first! I took care to arrange their hair, arms and legs, and to line them up more carefully than I did the first time. I've come to see how important little details are, like making sure their hair is out of their face, and they are looking at the camera.
My Blythe collection has grown quite a bit since I took the first picture, so I was able to use a different doll for every color...except orange. Cloud 9 Bowl is so perfect for that little slice of the rainbow that she had to make a repeat appearance.
Here are their stock names, from left to right:
Cinema Princess
Cloud 9 Bowl
Mrs. Retro Mama
Prima Dolly Amaryllis
Simply Sparkly Spark
Curly Blue Babe
Prima Dolly Violet

True Love
It's okay for a girl to indulge in her love of chocolate once in a while, isn't it?
This is Charlotte de Fleurs. I call her Fleur (because I already had a girl named Charlotte--my Precocious Candy's Mushroom--when I got her.)

Sheep!
When the girls heard that today is Dolly Day (marking the birth of Dolly the Sheep, the first mammal successfully cloned from an adult somatic cell), they all rushed to their closets to find something appropriate to wear.
Calliope (Can Can Cat), London (Prima Dolly London), and Promise (Little Milk Heart).
