PPAG Assignment 1 Results! (and Assignment 2 theme)

Hey! I know you all have been waiting for this, but I finally have the results ready!


I just want you to know, and I'm sure you've heard this before, but I am really sorry that I have to eliminate two of you. Emma W. and Sammi have asked to be excused from this round. Anyways, I am so sorry...


Unfortunately, Mackenzie Rae and Breezy with be eliminated this round. It was a very hard decision to make, but you both are lovely and I hope to see you in the next PPAG.


As for Assignment 2, the theme is.....
Earth Day and Easter

Try to incorporate both of these themes into your 3 photos. It may be tricky, but I'd love to see what you come up with!
The deadline is Thursday the 21st.

Misc. Post

Hey ya'll! I really dislike writing these posts, but I need to write a lot of random things...


  • I recently changed by Name Princess blog and wrote a post on Harry Potter World. You can check it out here.
  • I am working on a special project for 100 subs on YouTube and it will be shown in three parts- it's going to be pretty long! Anyways, it probably won't be up for another few weeks, but it's taken up a lot of my time. 
  • PPAG Participants- your assignment must be up today! Otherwise you could face elimination from the contest. These are the assignments I have: Emma, Crazy Doll Lady, Karalee, Berryanne, Breezy, Nutti Netti, and Sammi (she is excused because of camera problems!). Wow! Only six (I think) of twelve posted their assignments? If you have your pictures ready be sure to post/e-mail them tonight!
Thanks,
Gabby

Liberty Jane Clothing Review!

Hey everyone! I love my Liberty Jane items and I just wanted to give you all a review on each item, so if you wanted to buy it, you would know what it is really like!


For those of who don't know, Liberty Jane is a company run by a woman who handmakes all of the doll clothes. 


I bought the Moccasin Fringe Boots and the Blue and Red Layerd Skirt!


Let's start with the Moccasin Fringe Boots...
These are adorable! They are a bit darker than the picture Liberty Jane has up on their website, but they are adorable nonetheless. They can easily be put over skinny jeans, leggings, or tights so they can work for almost any season! They are so perfect for the winter and fall months, but with some smart mixing and matching, you can make them work for any time of year! I love these boots and I would totally recommend them.








Now for the Red and Blue Layered Skirt...
This skirt is adorable! I love how versatile it is! This skirt can work with any season and you can easily turn the skirt around to give a new pattern each time your doll wears the stylish skirt. It's much thinner than I thought, but it's not see through so I'm fine with it. It's perfect for anything and it's definitely recommended! 


Thank you for reading my reviews!


Also, PPAG participants need to submit their photos by Tuesday, I only have 3 people submit their photos.

PPAG Assignment 1

Hey everyone! I have a super cool theme for this first assignment!

Red.

Yes, now I realize red isn't exactly a Spring color, but that's why I chose it- for a challenge! 
Here's what I would like to see:

  • Photos with plenty of light! Light is a key factor in good photography.
  • Red. Obviously! Have your doll (that same as in auditions) in a red dress, against red flowers, or a red backdrop. Be creative!
  • Please keep your editing to a minimum. I don't mind a little bit of text or some photos being lightened up a bit, but please, edit only a little bit.
Also, photos are due in one week, Tuesday, April 5th. Remember, e-mail or post your three best photos and leave the link to me. 

Enjoy!
