The living room is the fifth room of my cigar box dollhouse and is populated by Count Dracula and his many bats. I know you can only see three but they are nesting everywhere - in the curtains, the piano, under the couch. They drive the dogs crazy so the Count must leave lots of bones around to distract Vlad and Bram.
I couldn't seem to find a vampire that wasn't cartoony or that I was allowed to use with other stamps so I fell back on my Rubber Baby Buggy Bumpers faceless one and Pam drew this handsome vampire face for me. Rubber Baby Buggy Bumpers is now a division of Stamp Francisco - they have scarfed up a lot of the early stamp companies and have an amazing collection of vintage looking stamps! The dogs and curtains are polymer clay. And be sure to zoom in on the detail photo and look at that cool coffee table - an internet find! All the paper furniture and figures have been fussy cut and layered with at least three layers for a bit of dimension.
I saw so many wonderful projects yesterday and many people who are expressing a little sadness that we are getting close to done. I still have a bunch of ideas, but I'm ready to get this house glued together and move on to other subject matter. Thanks for all of your kind comments!!
