An outfit of purple flowers and black accents.
Hmm blur-tastic. This was taken before the good camera but I’m lazy, too lazy to crop new photos right now.
I had a great Easter/Chocolate day yesterday, we went to James’ parents house for lunch.
It’s been a loooong week, I feel like we’ve accomplished a lot though. Blue Crane Design is chugging along nicely.
I’ve been having a lot of fun finding little accessories which can be hime-ified in normal shops. With the terrible exchange rate at the moment I haven’t been able to order anything from Japan. There are a surprising amount of things which can be used in the main stream shops though.
Shops like Diva and Equip and Cosmetics Plus (the most awesome shop ever) have all kinds of things in at the moment like fake flowers and pearls.
The recession has a positive side for scrupulous shoppers like me! With all of these places going into receivership and closing down there are lots of bargains to be had 😀
Btw have any of the Australians reading this gotten their Rudd Money yet? Will you be being safe or getting new outfits?

Time for a comics themed ACEO Friday.
Ok I’ve been branching out and getting back to my artistic roots… traditional comics! God I love Gambit from X-men. He’s my favorite comic character of all time. When I was a teenager I spent all my money on comics with Gambit. Ah now that I’m a poor business owner I can’t afford my comics anymore! I’ll make my own!
As always click the picture to be taken to the etsy ACEO sale page 🙂

Hurray more konad nail art, that’s what you’ve been waiting for!
Hello everyone! I have some big news this post… I’m Nuffnang’s featured blogger of the month 😀

Now for the real purpose of this post… I GOT MY KONAD! Really this post is in homage to Brooke and her blog “Getcha Nails Did”. She is the one who convinced me to actually get it and I’m so happy! If you don’t know what a Konad is click here: http://www.konadusa.com/
Konad nail art pics ahoy!
This was my first try so it kind of sucks… but I practiced a whole lot!
Now here is my second try, much better don’t you think? I LOVE this lace tip. This plate didn’t actually come with the set I got but the lady was nice enough to just swap it for me! How cool was that?
They are a little smudgy but I’m still proud I did this well on my second go XD
Ignore how gross my toes are and just look at the cute stamps 😀
I’m having such an awesome day today! I’m so sorry I didn’t get to reply to everyone’s comments yesterday I was sooo sick. James isn’t feeling very well this morning and I’m praying he doesn’t have what I did *_*
