Crafty Carnival

Cute custom face. FRECKLES!

I listed this doll in my etsy shop as available for custom orders:

 

And then I got an order for a girl with light brown hair and FRECKLES!  She likes teal/blue, so that would be great for her skirt :)  And I happen to know this little girl like Country Music, so I made that skirt out of a handkerchief ;)  And this is the result:

 

I LOVE her freckles!!  You can have your own custom dolly too!  There's tiny ones and big ones available in my shop!!

 

 

I'm listing this post on Tip Me Tuesday :)  I LOVE LOVE LOVE Tip Junkie sooo much.  I actually LOVE their facebook page the most of everything b/c I don't always have time to get to my reader. And they seem to find the cutest stuff first, and I see it on my facebook before I get to my reader.  I LOVE IT!  xoxo

e-pattern and PICTURE TUTORIAL now available for Rainbow Pocket Dolly :)

I just listed the e-pattern for Rainbow Pocket Dolly in my shop here :) 

 

This pattern is 9 pages long because it includes SIXTEEN pictures to help you along the way!  So if you are new to making dolls, or you just like pictures, you will love this pattern. 

 

I recently announced that you can now sell the items you make from Crafty Carnival patterns.  This recession (depression) has hit us all hard and we can all use a few extra bucks!  So I've kept my prices low, (only $5 per pattern) and I'm hoping that in return, all of you will send me lots of link love and help me out that way!  Thanks a million!  Every post/tweet/mention... anything helps.  It helps me keep creating, so I can post new things to hopefully inpire YOU to keep creating.  The circle of craft (lol!)

Sending lots of crafty love out into the universe tonight,

Missy ;)

You can now SELL the items that you create from CC patterns!

Hi my crafty friends!!  I have GREAT NEWS!  You can now SELL the items that you create from Crafty Carnival Patterns!  For the past several years, my patterns have been for personal use only.  But I've recently decided that times are tough, and we could all use a few extra dollars to help fund our crafty habits :)  So therefore, I've decided to change my usage policy.  

The long story short is that you can sell anything you make from my patterns (both free patterns and paid patterns) online or in a craft booth as long as you personally made the item :)  I have asked that you please link back to my blog here if you do decide to sell, but other than that there are very few limitations!  You can read the full pattern usage here.  There is a permanent link as well over on the right hand side under patterns.

There is also an opportunity for you to have your blog, website or shop listed on my sidebar as a Crafty Carnival Creator.  My hope is that this will help to drive traffic towards your shops that you can sell your finished products more easily.  The information on that is also listed on the usage page.  

As always, feedback is welcome, and PLEASE, keep your eyes peeled for NEW Crafty Carnival Patterns coming soon!!

xoxo
