Meet Sam!

Time flies at the moment. I want to do so much but I also want to rest - it does not work together.

I am making an album of all my creations from the last 3 years and I HAD to finish this new creation because I saved the first page for him.

This is Sam. He is a little tapir who loves donuts- unlike his Mummy...

Sam is 5 1/2 inches tall and the donuts are about 1.3 inches.

I had to save one donut from being eaten by my Mum. I said to her that I have made him donuts and she said: "Well, I have to try one of those! (* thinking they were kinda small though*)" I thought she was joking but that she put it to her mouth. NO, that is polymer clay! Phew... just in time.

Anyways,

I hope you like Sam.

Hugs,

Mel

Finally new work

Finally I have finished my latest work.

Mini 'Minnie' made after pictures from a lovely dog called 'Minnie'- a Jack Russell/ mini Foxie cross.

It took me quite a while because you want her to look like the real dog as much as possible.

Totally different then my other work because I usually make the more 'funny' characters with big eyes and my own style but now I had to work more realistic. Scary... hehe.

I had to rely on other people's opinion if she looked like the real dog because I only had some pictures of her.

 The mini 'Minnie' is 9 inches/ 23cm tall (with ears).

Hope you like her.

Hugs, Mel
