CUTE BLOG AWARD!!

I've been tagged in a Cute Blog Award! Thanks to the lovely Heidi for loving  my cuteness :3

For this award you:

1. Link back to the person who awarded you.

2. Answer the award questions.

3. Tell something about yourself that you haven't told anyone on your blog yet.

4. Award as many blogs as you think are worthy of this award.

5. Make sure to let those you gave this award to know that you awarded them.

The Award Questions:

1. What is your go to makeup product?

Mascara and gold eyeshadow.  The gold, shimmery eyeshadow goes well with any outfit and I have somewhat light lashes, so mascara is definitely my friend :)  

2. What was your favorite fashion trend of 2011?

FEATHERS! I love feathers and I love seeing them EVERYWHERE.

3. What is your favorite dessert?

Tiramisu, but only if it's made really well.

4. Favourite color?

That's a hard one. I love so many colors I don't think I have a favorite... But I do really love grey, mustard yellow and turquoise. 

5. What is your middle name?

LeAnne

6. What was the last song that you listened to?

LMFAO "Sexy And I Know It".  And the video makes me laugh every single time I see it.

7. Cats or dogs?

Both. But I think my dog is definitely more fun than the two cats...

Something about myself that you don't know:

I rearranged and changed my whole lifestyle in about two weeks, and I feel AWESOME.  None of you know what that means but I'll tell you if you ask nicely ;)

patterns

New stuff! OK, so when presented as a set (which was my original intention), these aren't very well balanced color-wise or in composition, but I really enjoy them as separate pieces. Printed them on 150lb cold press watercolor paper and mounted them on wood.  But they really should be laser printed instead of my crappy little inkjet, since it's not as crisp, but I ran out of time.  I'll just be giving these to my nephew for his room :)

necklace love

A large, Scandinavian-inspired statement necklace I'm embroidering. This is taking for-ev-er.

elsie sketch

She was sitting on my bed, watching a bug fly around the lamp. Super quick 1 minute sketch.

rubber bandit

A bit of an inside joke. Names have been changed to protect the innocent...

conceptual ramblings

Friend needs creature designs for a graphic novel. warm up sketches.

swell

Haven't done IF in a crazy long time. And I guess the drawing could be considered a stretch to fit the word, but I care not.

ugh

After a busy week and an exhausting weekend, I'm not fit for doing anything today. Except maybe melting into a puddle on the floor...  I need. Something.

vinyl fantastisch

Lovesick Robot made my design into a sweet vinyl sticker that now resides on my laptop. Awesome sauce.

hurray for horseback riding!

By the way, a lot of trotting = very sore legs.

freja and things

The Norse goddess Freja, and some other random ideas for a show I'm doing in November. I'm focusing on Scandinavian myths and legends :D Yay!

delineation

poor little elsie

Poor little Elsie dislocated a toe after a crazy night of being chased by Miss Button, so they had to do surgery to remove it. Her pupils were entirely dilated for two days after and she was quite sad and more than a little freaked out...

paper scraps and feathers

Some feathers I cut out of card stock - I had an idea in mind when I started to make them, but now I don't really know what to do with them...  So I salvaged any usable scraps of paper and created this weird peacock.. bird... thing.
