Cakeronauts from Cakeron 7 Have Landed

These Cakeronauts came all the way from Cakeron 7!  The team of Admiral Skrimpmonius Hershdessert and Dr. Osmo Poptartiarity entered a planet wide contest on their home world to make the best cupcakes.  The prize was exclusive rights to come to planet Earth and spread their cupcakes.

 

 Dr. Poptartiarity, a Doctor of Cupcakeology, had this to say

 "We come to you with our delicious cupcakes!  We are in no way attempting to take over your world with our delicious cupcakes!  Have some!  You really must!  Moohooaahahhaaaaahh!"

Temple Dancer

I took a wonderful online class through joggles.com in October.  The artist was Barbara Schoenoff and the project was a soft sculpture doll - the Temple Dancer.  I set it aside for a while because of, well, life, but I just completed her and here she is!

She stands about 18 inches tall and is sewn, stuffed and embellished with yarns, threads and beads.  I added wrapped wire and charms.  I've never sewn anything like this.  So I was thrilled when she came together relatively easily.  I had trouble with the hands and ended up sculpting them in polymer clay.

I highly recommend looking at classes offered through joggles.com, especially with this artist!  The instructions were great and easy to follow!
