March 2021 Calendar Picture

Hello everyone!

It's March already, so, as usual, I bring you the Calendar picture for the month (featuring the lovely calendar my friend Cutata sent to me as a present!).

This month we have a beautiful scene on the streets of her village, Sweet Berry Valley, featuring the adorable Marshmallow Mouse Family. Isn't the shape of the inner part of their ears lovely? I love the colour scheme for this family, as well as their clothes. The combination of pink and green is very reminiscent of Spring for me (also of Japanese Sakura trees), so this is an ideal picture for the month. :) The whole family, impossibly cute newborn triplets and older sister included, seem to have gone out for a stroll to take advantage of the warmer Spring weather. 

I love how detailed Cutata's scenes always are. The beautiful greenery everywhere, the lovely background, the little potted plants, the wreaths on the doors, the neighbours at the background, going about their lives... It all just makes the whole scene come together and seem both very real and idyllic, as a Sylvanian world should be. Just perfect! 

I know this family is special to Cutata, as it was a gift from her pupils and their parents. You can read more about it on her blog, on the entry she wrote to celebrate her absolutely deserved appointment as a SF Ambassador for the 35th Anniversary. Huge congratulations once again, Cutata! So happy for you! :)

I hope you're all having a great year so far, and that you're staying safe and healthy. I know I promised you all a story on my last post, last month; I'm still working on it, sorry for the delay. Pictures are taken, only the text is left. Hopefully soon...!

Have a wonderful rest of the month!

    Greetings Ayrell!

    For a moment I thought this was an official calendar photo! The quality is amazing and the whole family is looking lovely. The colors definitely match everything and I love the shops in the back!

    I am really excited about the story and I will definitely check EVERYDAY for it!

    Wishing you well,

    Hello Ayrell,


    I love the pastel colours of this month's photo very much.
    They make me look forward to Easter.

    I agree with you - Cutata's scene is wonderfully detailed, as always. :)


    Kind regards,
    Nina

      I completely agree with you, and you're right, the colours are also reminiscent of the Easter holidays. Looking forward to eating some chocolate eggs, hehe!

    What a lovely family picture, with emphasis on the word family. Cutata can certainly set up a scene, and it's always nice to see background activities to help the realism and tell a story.

    Thank you for sharing it and for reminding me of the family's significance.

    Take care!

    It is a great honour for me to see my calendar pictures on your blog.
    You know I admire the way you write and your ability to describe scenes.
    It makes me very happy to know you like my calendar and I really hope each month of the year brings you happy moments.
    My motto is " Not everyday is good but there is something good everyday" So I hope you can find something good every single day of the year.
