Teeeheeheee! Thank goodness toys don't feel the ouchies. Whew! I think Miss Betty's sweet on her tall cowboy, too. Love is great, any way you can get it!

Have a faboooo weekend, dahling!

Absolutely adorable and funny! Love the detail of her standing on the stool.

I question that cowboy doll's sanity. Limb-loss seems a bit on the extreme side. Although, love has a way of making fools of us all.

Very nice.

Okay Vanessa....you can tell where my mind is because I swear to you honey, I read the title of the post "Love Toy"...... ;-D
(yeah, it's been one of THOSE days...)
And this proves that male behavior, even in the realm of toys, differs not one whit from the realm of MAN. Bet he enjoys getting that LEG reattached!
Ahem.
*wink!*

XXOO~~♥

Sorry, I've been away darling Buttercup, too much on my plate to play in blog land so I missed your last post, well, I missed commenting on it anyway. This is really fun, I love that he's just patiently waiting to have his leg sewn back on. XOXOXO

I love your interpretation of the subject.
My old toys look a bit like the little cowboy. I guess because of to much love hihi.

Hehehe! He’s lucky to have Miss Betty :o) At least he’s still got a leg to stand on when it comes to romance :o) This is great Vanessa.... I was contemplating “toy love” myself. God bless you and your family.

I love how you managed to quietly insert a very adult, and cheeky, sense of humor into some of your work. As always the colors are fabulous and I love this take on the TOY theme. You are forever inspiring and a source of a smile for me.
