Happy Birthday Lisa!

It was a year ago today that Lisa joined my doll family, so we are celebrating her 'birthday'. She wanted to sew herself a special dress, which she finished earlier this week. Being an elegant young lady, she asked for a Black forest cake for her birthday - without candles - so that's what I made....

Several of her friends came to help her celebrate....

"Mmmmm....the cake looks yummy!  Time to have some..."

The cake is another delectible concoction of styrofoam, with 'chocolate' drywall compound icing, 'chocolate' Sculpey medallions and roses, Sculpey cherry pie filling, and 'mocha' drywall compound 'whipped cream'.   Yummmm....!!  At least it's not fattening!

By the way, my son said I needed to be active on Facebook. I had signed in there under 
'MB Lilac' about a year ago, and have done nothing with it. However, I'm told I SHOULD post there.  All righty then.  I changed Facebook to my name - Martha Boers. It will mostly be for doll-related stuff, much like this Blog.  I think I may also transfer my 'Photo-a-Day' posting to Facebook. I've had so little to post on my Martha Boers photo website that the daily photos - which aren't very 'daily' anymore - are mostly just of my dolls.  I figure there isn't much point to posting in three separate places, so I'll give Facebook a try.  Of course, that also means even more ways to get distracted from sewing....
