Hi guys,
Thanks everyone for such generous feedback. I had fun doing Candi??s Wish, from learning digital photography to beginning a website to playing with dolls (mostly enjoyed the dolls). I like sharing with this group, you??re all such positive people.
To answer the questions: I did not make the clothes. Rosie??s dress is a Fashion Ave made of stretchy material, so it went on easily. I bought cheap dolls to rob them of the bridesmaid dresses. The pictures by the water were taken at our cottage in Canada. I gathered some rocks from the shoreline and a dried twig, and arranged them at the end of the dock, then I waded waist high into the water to photograph. I also arranged the dolls on rocks around the shoreline. The pregnant doll is a Steffie doll. There is actually a removable baby in the tummy. I removed Steffie??s head and replaced it with Dolly??s head (took creatively to come up that name, lol). Dolly is a Barbie/Teresa, and I have several of them, so it wasn??t a sacrifice to break one apart.
Thanks again for being so supportive. These days I??m collecting 16" dolls and playing with dioramas, but I still adore Candi.
