Go win yourselves some really cool stuff!

I received this photo from a friend who purchased a banner/wallhanging a few months ago. It shows how it was used as a backdrop for a ritual ceremony ... doesn't it look wonderful here?!

Yippie Yi Yay! Announcing the winners!
The winners of the last contest, who first posted that the nasty wreckage shown was the car responsible for the death of James Dean ...
were Ann Shaver and Jorge de Rojas! Why two winners? They posted within seconds of each other, so I declared they were both winners. I'm getting their prizes out to them just as soon as it's not pouring rain. Thanks everybody for entering!


Now, I have only one statement to make in reference to the following wedding photos. And that is ...

... don't you wish your wedding looked like a Rent-the-Bride-by-the-Hour event?! My only suggestion would be to rent one that had shampooed her hair this week.
her grandmother is beaming with pride...

"No, honey, you don't have to do anything special for the wedding, like showering or..."

...because the bride's toast should always include the entire party

..."I paid for those suckers, and you're damn well going to show 'em!"

I don't think anything speaks of romance and love like two kissin' mallards.

..."you think a simple thing like death is going to part us?!"

A bride in formal dress (albeit with her titled airbrushed on her ass), the groom and best man in tee-shirts, the matron of honor (as she's pregnant, I'm giving her the benefit of the doubt) in a jean skirt, and the flower girl trying to get away from the scene. I want to see photos of the reception!
I know, I know, I know. It's all about love and commitment. But, come on! Really?!


It's no secret that I love crowns. So how cool is this one - it's made of paper! You can get one of your very own - as well as a host of other fab paper goodies at A Plus R Global Design. There are also a lot of other categories besides paper, but I haven't even begun to browse through it all!


hmmm. Might be a slim Easter basket this year ...


Alright. I guess I've been playing around here long enough. I need to start getting serious and get into the studio and do a lot of work. You...?
Go make something beautiful!
