Lola (a puppy for my roommate) #49

My roommate views the dolls I make as puppies. And just like puppies she has a similar emotional response, excitement, joy but also this underlaying knowledge that one day the puppies will have to go to their new home. In a way she gets all the dolls, as they slowly pile up on our couch.... but there's that realization that they won't be here forever. So, I made her a puppy of her own, one that she can fully bond with, having the security that it won't leave. 
I wish that I had recorded her reaction when presented with Lola! "I love her", "So cute" and "precious" were the only things she uttered for several minutes! (this is why I make them. These exclamations of pleasure are a huge motivating factor)


Lola.... the doll that will forever be hers:

Sam (and i'm bummed)

i'm sad to say that my carded submission didn't make the cut.
boo


here's sam............. split in two. 


your mind thinks one thing, your heart another. 
there are two voices in your brain, two hearts, 
each with their own decisions. but which is the best? 
often contradictory, you are torn, divided, unsure. 
you hesitate. 
your gut is neutral, giving no guidance. 
you take a deep breath, flip a coin 
and dive in head first.
