Ralph gets teased

Ralph Walnut doesn't feel like playing football with his friends today! He just found a relaxing spot under a tree in the woods to enjoy his book undisturbed! But..

-I hope they won't find me here!




-There he is...too lazy to play with us today!
-Shh...can i borrow your rubber spider?




-What are you doing?
-Just giving him an adrenaline rush!




...WHAAT!!!...




...YIKES!!!...

- Haha, now he is back in shape!

In the woods

I couldn't wait to use my DIY trees in my photos! So here are some pictures with sylvanian kids playing in the woods! :) Which one is your favourite?


- I will find you!




.. Make a circle, round and round...




-Come on, you can do it!





-I will catch that ball even if you throw it so high, up in the sky!




'Wind, wind, spin my little pinwheel!'



- Look! I made this acorn pendant especially for you!




********************************



Thank you all so much! :love:
Bloem, I had the idea with the little windmills for a long time but only now I managed to make some decent ones! I used toothpicks and double sided paper. I like that critters can hold them!

Three naughty piggies!

Yipee!
-Guys, stop jumping on the bed, you're making too much noise and I can't concentrate on my homework!





-But it's so much fun playing in the bedroom! Look we're doing the slide!
-Could you at least go and play outside for the next hour?






-Well...ok, but after you give us a nice piggyback ride, yay!
-Oh man...!

Halloween night (the genie of the teapot)

Hey look! Can you recognize who is under the costumes? Yes, it's Kane Bamboo and Antonia Beagle dressed up and ready to go to a Halloween party! They are waiting for their friend to arrive soon...




Ike Mulberry arrived a bit late in his Aladdin costume!
-Sorry guys, I was looking for an oil lamp but I only found this old teapot in my grandma’s attic! Yikes, this place is creepy!
-Cool outfit Ike! That rusty teapot is alright, maybe a genie can live in there too, haha!
-Maybe if I rub it, it pops out, haha!





-Hey look! Some kind of blue smoke is coming out!! It can’t be…!




-….!!!!
-Hello master! I am the genie of the teapot!
-Wow, a real genie!!!





-Yes master, and I can grant you three wishes! What would they be?
-Wow! Cool! Could we each one have a wish?
-Certainly but they will last only until the day light!
-Ok guys! Let’s make our wishes…





Yay! My wish came true! I can actually fly on my broom!!




I can't believe I'm on a real magic carpet! Thank you genie!




Wow! I am a real ghost now! I will scare everyone at the party! Booooooo...!




The best Halloween night ever!!

The house is real but...small! it is actually a small 3d paper miniature of the house in the Pixar movie 'Up', ( u know the house with the balloons!). I made this some years ago (found it in a crafting site) and I thought why not use it in the photo ( I used the back side of it). The bright windows are photoshoped!
I made the pavement from foam board ( if you mean this) or else the path is a piece of a brown paper bag with some foliage on the sides. The autumn leaves are real yellow leaves which I broke into very small pieces! The trees are real little branches that I glued together with glue gun!
Here are two photos of the original set. As you can see most of the job with the lights ,colors and the sky in the final product was made with photoshop!
