*SOLD* Naomi Prototype Coming Soon

Saturday, November 7, 2015



Hi everyone! Just a heads up-- I will have another prototype listed this month. She is the new Naomi sculpt by Denise Pratt and what a sweetheart she is! I love her nose and her chubby cheeks. Sleeping baby girls are my favorites and this one ranks high with me. I have named her Jentry Solene. She has the Toffee Topia skin tone. Her hair will be black and wavy. Jentry has full arms which I am totally excited about! All of the flutter sleeved bubbles and dresses better run and hide because I am coming for them, lol! :) Stay tuned for more information about Jentry.

*SOLD* Prototype Thomas Awake on eBay!

Sunday, October 25, 2015


Hi everyone! Jessamine Francesca is finally listed on eBay! Her little face just melts me! :) I love her hands too! Speaking of hands, my hand is doing really well. I did experience a bit of pain halfway through rooting Jessa's hair, but I pushed and pushed through the pain. It has been a while since I've rooted a baby, but I have to get back into the swing of things-- carpal tunnel or not. I have three more heads to root, haha! ;)

Perfect Shading and Updates

Tuesday, October 13, 2015





Hi everyone! I owe readers an update post, that's for sure. ;) But first, do you see the shading/pigmentation on these two babies? Perfection! Both of these kids are so cute to me! I wish I could sculpt them.

But anyway, my Apricot Love-A-Lot Thomas Awake prototype will be listed soon. She is getting her eyelashes rooted, so she'll be ready today, but I still don't have her outfits. I called the company and I was told the items were back ordered which is why they haven't shipped yet. The waiting game, ugh! But Jessamine (Thomas Awake) is like the cutest thing! I just can't get enough of her. She is so dainty and cute that it makes me sick, lol. ;)

I should have pictures of the privately ordered Kana by Ping Lau soon. I will also have a painted kit to show off. She is the Lizzy mold by Adrie Stoete. I love Lizzy's face! I'd never seen this kit before her mom sent her to me. I am in love.

I have received several inquiries about private orders. I really need to shut down sales and work on my new painting techniques, but if you have a kit in mind, send me an email and maybe we can work something out for early next year. My holiday slots are actually booked by prototypes, so I will have two additional prototypes available before the end of the year. I do have a Twin A kit here and several of you have asked about her, but honestly, I do not know when I will be able to squeeze her in...

Last but not least, the little baby Yasmina Love will be listed on eBay. She is the Cherry Cheeks Fei Yen kit I posted pictures of last month. She is 22" long. She now has a black mohair wig and dark brown eyes. Just wait until you see her pigtails! ;)

I love the coloring on these two adorable babies! I can't wait to finish my Tinkerblush samples.


Optional Vanilla Truffle Painting Techniques

Saturday, October 10, 2015


Hi everyone! For those of you who have the Vanilla Truffle coloring guide, I have a few tips I'd like to share. These tips are optional depending on the look you are going for, but while painting my three samples, I discovered that I like the Apricot Love-A-Lot crease color for Vanilla Truffle. Paint the creases using two layers of Vanilla Truffle's specified crease color mixture. When those two layers are complete, add a light layer of the Apricot Love-A-Lot crease color. Don't go crazy with the darker color, just a light layer will do the trick. Focus on the thigh rolls, eye creases and nose creases.

I also discovered that Vanilla Truffle looks awesome with two layers of the Starlight color for the entire nose. Starlight is the highlight color from the Apricot Love-A-Lot coloring guide. Purple capillaries on the eyelids were also a great detail. I created purple by mixing Phthalo Blue 02 and Crimson 01. Happy Painting!

Private Orders Closed

Hi ladies! Last post today, I promise! :) Private orders are officially closed. I want to focus on new painting techniques in 2016.

Follow me on Facebook for the most up-to-date information regarding these partially painted kits. :)

$9 USD Vanilla Truffle Coloring Guide & Wintergrace Tutorial

Saturday, September 5, 2015

http://lmsweethearts.freewebspace.com/vanillatruffle.htm

Hello again, ladies! I forgot to post that I have a Vanilla Truffle coloring guide available. The Wintergrace Effect tutorial is included with this purchase because the Vanilla Truffle skin tone relies on Wintergrace. Like all of my coloring guides, the Vanilla Truffle coloring guide only tells what colors to use for the skin tone. It does not discuss placement. My tutorials tell artists where to specifically place these colors.

The Wintergrace portion of this bundle is only useful to those who have purchased the Prep, Neapolitan and Depth/Details tutorials. It won't mean much if you don't have these tutorials. :)  Click here to purchase the tutorials.

This is only an introductory price for this bundle. Once I complete the Vanilla Truffle babies (Danton and Ryana), the price will increase to $17 USD.

WIP *NEW* Vanilla Truffle Skin Tone!

Friday, August 28, 2015


So, like I said, Lexus and I sketched a plan on paper for our new Vanilla Truffle skin tone. This is an early progress photo but we are so excited to finally see this coloring on vinyl!

Vanilla Truffle represents the lightest AA skin tones that do not have the Apricot undertones like the Apricot Love-A-Lot skin tone. Our goal is for this skin tone to remain creamy with pretty caramel shadows and soft, pink blushing. I will post a picture of the final look soon. I am loving it so far!

This skin tone relies on the Wintergrace technique to cool down the apricot coloring. If there is enough interest, I will publish a Vanilla Truffle coloring guide and a tutorial add-on for the Wintergrace technique.

This baby will not be finished, she will be sold as a painted kit. The completed Vanilla Truffle baby won't be available until later this year.

We are also still working on our three Caucasian skin tones:

Tinkerblush (newborn)
Ginger Bisque (older peachy baby)
Kisses Like Cream (older rosey baby)

And our lovely Asian skin tone, Cherry Cheeks!

Stay tuned!

Kaylex Riley

Thursday, August 20, 2015




I reborned this baby Kaylex Riley in 2013. I received an email from Kaylex's mommy telling me that Kaylex was ruined in a fire that destroyed the entire family home. I just wanted to post a few pictures of Kaylex and let the family know that my thoughts are with them through this difficult time.
