 Take your cardboard and put it on your dolls face to measure the length and height that the mask should be.

 











Then sketch out the shape of your  mask and cut it out.

then make marks were the eyes are suppose to go ,I traced some little marbles to make the wholes bigger and cut it out.

AG Rumors + Samanthas return and posible new historical doll

Hi!
Have you heard the rumors that Cécile and Marie-Grace's might be  retiring? Alot of people have been saying they do not appear in the Spring AG catalog ,which might involve them being retired soon ! Nothing is confirmed yet but ...these clues might be the evidence they will be retiring !

I hope that doesn't happen because the idea of having two main Historical dolls is just really cool ! American Girl already retired Molly last year so if they retire these dolls that would be 3 dolls in a short period of time ! If you want to read more check out Living a Dolls life she has plenty of info on this topic.
While these dolls might retire an American girl doll Classic doll will come back this Fall!
It is Samantha Parkington!

  This is really exiting for all of the Samantha lovers or the ones who missed out on her !Though there is no info if her outfits and accessories will come back with her re-release!But there is no information on Nellie's return .

An Ebay  seller posted some pictures of the new Samantha but there was no defined "meet" outfit!
These pictures are NOT mine they are from the Ebay seller! 

 

This picture shows how Samantha will have feathered eyebrows rather than the lined eyebrows she had originaly .

So now untill further notice  Samantha will be back in Fall 2014.







There are also other rumors about a new historical ! Many pictures have been found on the web of this doll :

 She  looks like a girl from 1960! She looks really cute and her outfit looks very unique! It is not completely 100% sure that she is an actual doll coming out and if she is coming out  at the same time as Samantha in Fall .

Here are some rumors and facts about the Historical line from American Girl .
Facts from:

I do NOT  own these pictures I found them on another blog.
