For the screen-picture I used STO-colors. I only have the fundamental colors, white & black & mixed all other colors by myself. :]

For the Venipede I used papier mâché & an universal glue. [only meal & water]
I used STO-colors for the faceup, too ;]

Here's my Poke-Beach~
Dratini and Slowpoke decided to go to the beach with little Poliwag. Lucky for them, there are no others at the beach but this is because the water is swarming with vicious man-eating -magikarps. So little Poliwag has to settle with just playing in the sand instead of swimming while his older friends are having a meal.

1 cotton stick as part of the warning-sign

and so you can see it is actually a cotton stick

Here is my Holyday-Ludo. I wanted to create a game for summer and here we go:
Spoiler:
Image
This is the Game. It works like "ludo" but only with one figure. The fluffy fields are the fields, where you go. You can see a dark and a light side. The light side stands for vacation and there is the goal, too. You will start at the dark side with all your sorrows you have 'till summer comes and make all this sorrows to good feelings. x3
Spoiler:
Image
You can Play this game with three Persons (Spinda, Hoppip and Teddiursa). I made them by myself with Fimo und painted them x3. The Teddyursa holds a dandelion seed head made from a cottonstick and the Spinda is surfing (on buttons).
Spoiler:
Image
Here you can see what I used. I connected the two straws to make a bigger one and folded it to make a raft. I sew the buttons together to get a surfboard und for the dandelion sed head I used the cottonstick. I plucked one of the to cotton sides and stick it softly on the other side.
this is it x3 I hope you like it!

✿ Mareep Summer Plush ✿

I decided to make a plushie of my favourite Pokémon, Mareep. She is made out of felt and totally hand stitched by myself. Of course it wouldn't be summer without her detachable cocktail drink, which is held on by two magnets sewn into her wooly belly and drink. Ofc the cocktail won't get lost because it is sewn to the side of her body with ribbon.
Image

Image

Materials and Steps:
Spoiler:
• Felt
• Liberty Bell
• 100% Premium Polyester Fiber Fill
• Ceramic Magnets
• Sequins
• Needle
• Scissors
• Ribbon
• Coloured Embroidery Floss
• Thread
*2 Drinking Straws, 3 Buttons and 1 Cotton Stick*

Long story short:
First I made a sketch of the Mareep plush and then made a pattern on paper for the felt. I used the patterns to cut out the shapes on the felt and sewed the pieces together with embroidery floss. After that I sewed in the magnets (which I had to break apart with a hammer because they were too big), sewed the outside edges with thread and stuffed/stitched up the rest. Later I made her cocktail drink out of sparkly felt and stuffed it with cotton, then attached it to her body with some thread and ribbon. Later I wrapped the cotton stick with ribbon, used pliers to put on the bell, tied a bow around the tail and added drinking straws to the cocktail. The total dimensions are about 12" x 12".


Required Materials Pics
Spoiler:
One Cotton Stick
Wrapped in ribbon

Two Drinking Straws

Three Buttons

Yup, so that's it. Sorry for the lengthy explanation, but I worked hard and I wanted to make sure the pictures captured everything! It was a lot of fun, and I would love to make more.

Of course a good husband takes the laundry of the clothesline even in the hot summertime.

Little Stunfisk seems to be hot, its wearing a little sunshade.
