Don't mind me, still photographing weddings..
Sul Sul! First, thank you for getting me into that newsletter/highlights last.. year? I didn't even see it until logging on recently but I appreciate that.♥ But with us diving into mid-June, I find myself decorating, planning, and photographing more and more weddings.. Maybe it's because my own wedding was in June a few years ago? Maybe it's the warm weather and sunsets? Whatever it is, I love it, and want it to continue. Here's some of my recent weddings! Been playing with the Royalty and Legacy pack. :) Sloane & Cordin - Ondarion & Cordin Kaisa & Verman - Ondarion & Verman Happy wedding season! ♥ Dag Dag!49Views5likes4CommentsShare Your Newest The Sims 4 Creations Here!

Happy New Year and welcome to another Sims 3 community collaboration hosted by Hidehi2 , Sandraelle and soocoolsim ! Introducing Petite Alsace inspired by picturesque Strasbourg, Colmar and Ribeauville with a dual French and German blend of charming, flower-laden villages and half-timbered homes. We anticipate the completed world will be a lovely addition to your game. Experienced creators (Intermediate+) are invited to join us in creating builds to add to the base world. If you love decorating but building isn’t your forte, let us know and we'll try to build a shell for you. Everyone can experience Petite Alsace taking shape by downloading the base world and installing builds as they become available. Please keep an eye on the "News and Updates" post for milestones and links to new creations as they become available. Constructive comments throughout this event are also welcome, so don't be shy. Without further ado, onto the details below and come join in the fun! LOT LISTINGS Map A: Colmar (Medieval, half-timbered houses with flower-filled balconies) Map B: Ribeauville (Pastel, half-timbered 15th - 18th century houses) Map C: Ribeauville Outskirts (Farming area) Map D: Strasbourg (City area, mix of old and new buildings) Map E: Avenue du Rhin (Wine region) Map F: Route de Alsace (Rural area) CLAIMING OVERVIEW Download the empty Petite Alsace base world created by the talented Hidehi2. Take a look at the available lots using the Map posts as reference (see links above). Indicate you're on board and sign up for your first claim by replying on this thread with your chosen map lot reference # (eg A8). I will update the lists with claims and add download / media links when builds are completed. Every two weeks (around the 1st and 15th of the month) a new claiming period starting with a 'Claiming Day' post will begin. During this period, if you join the collaboration or have a build in progress on Claiming Day, you can claim 1 lot. For ongoing participants, if all previously claimed builds are completed and (no cc) download link(s) submitted by Claiming Day, you may claim up to 2 lots. BUILDING GUIDELINES Please stay within the theme of each map area and overall Alsace inspiration. You have creative freedom otherwise. Inspiration links at the top of this post may be helpful. All / any EA Expansion Packs, Stuff Packs and official Store Items can be used. Free EA Store Items are OK for use. Note: Some are no longer available for download so use at your discretion. NO third-party Custom Content is allowed. Please Custard Check your exported file before uploading to double check. We highly recommend play-testing your build before uploading to ensure no routing concerns and users can enjoy as intended. Do test placement of your final build. This helps identify any potential issues (e.g. windows / floor tiles out of place). To do this... export your build, save your game, delete the existing build, then replace with the exported version from your library. Take a careful look around and fix as needed. It will be useful for players if the Petite Alsace lot address is included in your build description on the Exchange, albeit optional. Do take the time to put your best foot forward to make your build(s) shine inside and out. Just be cautious about using a ton of clutter since that can add to lag when playing. Each build will be showcased with credit in video walkthroughs on YouTube once the world is completed. Once your build is available on the Sims 3 Exchange, please post a reply on this thread including: name of build / map reference and/or address / download link / cover picture / custard screenshot confirming no 3rd party custom content included. Optional! Link to additional picture site / thread. SIMS / HOUSEHOLDS This collaboration focuses on builds since the final world save file will be unpopulated, however we are happy to link to Sims / Households created for Petite Alsace. Petite Alsace builders can submit Sims / Households for their completed claims as well as Townie use. All / any EA Expansion Packs, Stuff Packs and official Store Items can be used. Free EA Store Items are OK for use. Note: Some are no longer available for download so use at your discretion. NO third-party Custom Content is allowed. Please Custard Check your exported file before uploading to double check. Once your Sim / Household is available on the Exchange, please post a reply on this thread including: name / map reference or address (or identify as Townie) / download link / 1 cover picture / custard screenshot confirming no 3rd party custom content included.

Welcome to the JCGSpark Community! Hey everyone, I'm JAY-CAMAROGIRL- (Jay or JCG is fine too!) and I'm so hyped to finally bring my challenge series to the EA Forums. When I'm not neck-deep in Build Mode or creating new stories, I'm a busy SAHM to 3 kiddos and a wife living in Maine. Life is usually a whirlwind of family chaos and cleaning gigs, but The Sims is where I go to relax. As a simmer, I'm all about those deep family dynasties, intricate builds, and finding new ways to tell stories with our pixels. It's been my creative outlet for years, and I love sharing that passion with others✨ What is JCGSpark? I created JCGSpark as a monthly tag to get our community together and just create something cool! I love seeing how everyone interprets a prompt differently. It's honestly one of the best parts of the game for me🖤 Build/CAS Challenges: I like to switch things up! Some months we're focused on floor plans and landscaping. Other months we're diving into CAS to create unique characters and stories. Some are a mix of both! You can choose to build, create a sim, or do both if you're feeling extra inspired! I want everyone to be able to jump in regardless of how they like to play. Stream Showcases: I love celebrating what you all make. I showcase entries live on stream for the JCG Crew so we can all hype each other up and see the talent in our wonderful community🖤 Giveaways: I like to keep things spicy, so I'll sprinkle in giveaways here and there when I'm able to as a thank you for hanging out and participating🖤✨ I'm so excited to see what you all bring to the table. Check the posts below for the current (and past) challenge theme, rules, and to share your entries! ✨🖤Happy Simming🖤✨ JCG Twitch JCG X/Twitter JCG BlueSky JCG Gallery Planet Sims Discord519Views5likes9Comments💜 Quick Creativity CAS Challenge 💜 GLovelysQCC

The main goal of this challenge is to design and upload original creations quickly and on weekends only.

However, I may choose to challenge you on rooms and builds too as the challenge continues. The rules and creative direction will be posted here each Friday. Create and upload your entry to the gallery beginning each Friday after the new direction/rules post through 11:00PM MST Monday using the hashtag #GLovelysQCC I love to make Maxis nominations so this challenge will help me find some fantastic things created by you much more easily to share in the nominations threads. It would be very helpful for you to review this link on how Maxis chooses creations to fave before you share your entries. https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/955438/how-do-we-choose-our-maxis-faves-curation-guide#latest Randomly I will invite a group of talented creators to judge all of the entries during prize rounds. Prizes will consist of The Sims 4 Expansions, Game or Stuff packs as I choose. I will let you know each Friday when I post the creative directions if that weekend will be a judging weekend prize round. In addition, please feel free to share your creations here in the form of screenshots (limit 3), description and gallery links weekend after weekend. I'd love to see this thread filled with your Sims creativity! Also, please share your creations on other platforms too like #Twitter or #Instagram.

I'm so excited to roll out these quick creativity challenges each weekend and I'm looking forward to seeing all the fabulous creations you share with me! FIRST WEEKEND KICK-OFF -- PRIZE ROUND! Creative Direction & Rules: We've all been quarantined at home for various amounts of time now. For this first QCC please create one original family household that resembles your own family household. You can make simselves but that is not a requirement. You may include pets if you have them in your home. In your description please briefly describe your family and share with us what your family is doing to pass the time as we stay home. Do you craft? Write? Game? Read? Bake? Have you reorganized your home? Please share tips and optimism in your description. Be sure to include the hashtag #GLovelysQCC in your description before you upload to the gallery. Design every outfit category for every sim in the household Give at least 1 family member the "family oriented" trait Write your creation description according to the above guide NoCC and no defaults (defaults replace the original Maxis skin/eyes but are not officially tagged as CC) Only Maxis poses Reuploaded/Copied creations will be disqualified Have a blast creating for us! This is a prize round so the winner will be chosen by a panel of active gallery sim creators. Winner will receive their choice of either the City Living EP OR the Get Together EP game code redeemable on Origin for PC. (If you have these EP's already and you win you may choose an alternate.) Stay safe at home and happy simming always lovelies! 💜57KViews5likes1761CommentsMoochellie Makes - 2nd Entry
Hello, Sim family!! I fiiiiiinally finished another Simspired sewing project. I'm not gonna lie, this projects had me beat. I started it around Jan/Feb, made good progress, then came the fitting. Only thing is, the fabric I used is prone to terrible fraying. So when I tried to take it apart to adjust the size, the fabric basically disintegrated. Then I spent some time trying to figure out how to work around it so that I still have an in tact garment. Day and night I obsessed over it until I finally decided to just scrap it completely and start over again. I've been sewing for almost 20 years and very seldom does a sewing project beat me into the ground, LOL. After moths of working on the perfect garment, I present to you the newest addition to my wardrobe. A dress from Seasons... At first glance I was confused by the structure. Considering the bodice crosses over from the left side, but the shirt's front left side hem looks like it overlaps onto the back, I was like how in the plumbob does this wrap dress work?????? Until closer inspection I "decided" that this isn't a wrap dress and just a plain dress with a basic waist seam 😆 After staring from scratch I opted for a scuba spandex just in case I had to adjust the fitting again, which I did, but it was easier with the stretch fabric because I didn't have to use a side zipper for it. I love stretch fabrics for this very reason. You can make dresses that you can just slip on 🎉 I love the similarities that came out in the finished product - the draping in the bodice just above the waist seam and the gathering around the waist of the skirt. The only thing I deviated away from the Sim dress was the length of the skirt hem. Because I want to wear this dress to work I didn't think the height of the left side skirt was work-appropriate. Still, I'm thrilled with how it came out. And just with the last Sim sewing project, I just HAD to get the matching shoes. A pair of sling sandals in orange 😍 Well, that's it for now. I already chose the next garment to make. Hint... It's a blue dress from Horse Ranch. I already have the pattern set aside, now I just need to get the fabric 🤩🤩🤩162Views13likes12CommentsRincón de Primavera-Verano: ¿cómo disfrutan tus Sims del buen tiempo?
