BOC Doll Inspiration 60713 from McCall's 7757

this Beauty of Creating #BOC60713 doll inspiration 

comes courtesy of McCall's #7757

Our Doll Mod: Journey Girl Mandolyn aka "Mandy"

***

The top is originally from #BOC40210 Off-Shoulder Series

We liked the top but added an additional row of ruffles.

For the bottom, we went straight to the design table to graph

an entirely new pair of pants with pockets.  

Maintaining most of the original,we kept the flare leg, 

but raised the hem to form capri's to showcase shoes!

***

The struggle to complete this outfit with shoes, was real!  There are so many colors in the bouquets beset on the fabric that everything and nothing looked perfect!  Mandy has beautiful blushing sun-kissed tones to her skin so we focused on pinks and buff yellow!

This outfit and many more from our design table 

will arrive shortly at our eBay location!

Brown Sugar & Spice Baseball Tee #30424

On a whim, I thought about designing or re-purposing an existing free clip art.  This one I found online, totally free to use.  I added some curvy lettering and this was the result!

The design was inspired by the new pattern I designed #30424 JG Raglan Shirt (baseball tee).  Since this is the season for baseball, the decision was easy to converge these ideas into one rendering.

I absolutely love the results of this pattern/tee for its test run.  The screen print supports my natural hair movement. I may extend the hemline on the shirt as an option.  The sleeve length is perfect!

I will likely finish this look with a newly designed white sneaker; but the brown chunky sandals that dropped last summer, turned this spring's biggest heavy hitter, would mesh well as an alternate!
