Blushing on Nevaeh Serenity * Update *

Hi friends,

Ok so I am supposed to be doing my homework but guess what.  I could not focus last night nor could I this morning.  All I can think about is wanting to paint, blush, and detail my babies.  Oh, and hanging out with my family, my son, my daughter and my grandbaby.  I am enjoying it so much.  So I was really focused this morning and did not want to write my 4 papers due by Sunday so I spent a little time working on Nevaeh Serenity's blushing.  So in between dealing with my 4-year-old grandchild, and making food, taking care of my Maltese dogs, etc, I got a little time in to blush.  Don't worry I alway wash my hands, in fact, I am a bit of a germaphobe and Maltese are allergy friendly because I have the worst allergies in the world.  So I wash very well and mostly my husband and son take care of my pups.  They are kennelled while inside anyway or else they would have probably torn up my reborn dolls already.  So I have to make this quick.  I just wanted to share with you my blushing on Nevaeh Serenity that I did.  I am really proud and I have to say I might do just a tad more on her elbows, knees, cheeks, and pads of hands and feet but overall she looks beautiful.  She is not baked yet but afterwards the blushing should be a bit more subtle.  Then I will do more of a focused blushing on sweet little cheeks, knees, elbows and touch up work.

Excuse the soft towel beneath her it's to catch any paint so I can wash it out.  It is dry so none of that will end up on the baby.  So far I have done quite a few layers of paint on her, probably about 10 different layers of the genesis heat set paint.

I am feeling very proud as I think she looks extremely good.  I hope you like her.  I am trying to really focus on a very newborn look for this reborn doll.  She is Nevaeh from Bountiful Baby.  Nevaeh is sculpted by Denise Pratt.  She is really a gorgeous little baby.  I am gonna call her Nevaeh Serenity.  I am making great progress and I hope you like her too!

I gotta get on my homework, so have fun and visit me soon!

Love to all,

Kimberly Stevens

The Cuteness Keeps Coming

My day started out with a cranky baby that was left with me by my daughter.  She had to get her hours in and baby "Fia", as she calls herself, or Sophia, which is her real name, my only female grand baby has not been feeling well (yes I am a young Grandma).  It was rough at first but we got through breakfast and of course that was not easy because my microwave oven died a day ago for no apparent reason.  It caught fire and I got it out immediately with a hot pad luckily.  The day ended with my daughter getting financed for a new car, yay, and me picking up two new sculpts to work on.  So all in all it worked out to be a great day.

I have certainly found an hobby with a certain addiction to it.  I just found this little baby wants to come home for me to doll up.  Naveah, this cute little princess, by Denise Pratt is certainly a gorgeous little baby sculpt that is breaking my wallet open again.  I think she needs to come home with me so I can paint her little cuteness.  I love how sweet she looks, plus she appears to have that realistic sculpt.

Here she is in all her glory.  Reborn by Tinkerbelle Nursery she is making me want to keep her for my own.  Every part of her is adorable.

As long as we are talking about babies that I am in love with, Libby is another sculpt that I am smitten over.  I guess I really love that real newborn look.  Some Reborn dolls look funny to me but not these ultra-realistic babies.  Please let me know your opinions,  I would love to hear them!

Libby and Naveah may be next on my list of babies to Reborn!  Cuteness never ends with these Reborns!  

Well I have already got Naveah on the way so she is 4th in line for my loving artisan touch.  I can't wait to get her and start reborning her!

I also picked up Kendal, by Pat Moulton because she is not something I see as what I specifically like so she will be a challenge for me.  I think she has a pretty face though so I would like to see what I could do with her.
