Wrapped in a Bow

Wynn was not a happy scorceress today. Not only had she been called *cute* by a friend, but her magical orbs kept shooting fluffy kittens at her enemies rather than linghtning strikes! Wynn scowled and adjusted the bow on her outfit. Christmas may be on the horizon but she was in no mood to celebrate.

Naughty Santa!

So, Mrs Claus had promised to be a good girl but sometimes…well. The only way to be really good was to be really bad. It’s all about your sense of perspective *wink*

Cast Your Eyes Forward

Look forward, to the horizon. That’s where your future lies. Embrace it. Don’t let your fears be the bars on a self imposed cage that holds you back.

Today I’m stepping out of my comfort zone a little and I have a person and a group to thank for this. I recently participated in the Blogger Vlogger Network (BVN) group’s Secret Santa and I was drawn Jarla Capalini. “So, how do I blog about a blogger as a gift?” you ask. Well, it’s a very good question and one I’ve thought about this week carefully. You start by profile perving, flickr perving and blog perving. Generally, you perv and I learned a few things:

1. Jarla takes amazing photographs. Her use of lighting and shadows just makes me think “Wow!” every time I see them.
2. Jarla has a couple of quotes in her profile that really resonate with me. The window bars in this picture are inspired by one of them.
3. Jarla loves motorbikes!! This makes my heart sing because I have a trike in real life and I admit, I drooled at her rl profile picture (sorry Jarla, still profile perving).

So, what does a little blogger like me do with this information? Well, we take risks. We play with lighting and projectors. We edit windlights, play with shadows and then a moment of brilliance emerges. Obviously, this moment of brilliant includes a motorbike and an excuse to wear leather. So Jarla, this is my gift to you and it comes with thanks, for inspiring me to develop my skills further.

Nothing wrong with warming yourself by an open fire…even if it’s your butt that gets the warming first! Who knows what else the fire may warm up, if I’m lucky enough 😉

Two fingers are better than one?

This week I had the honour of working with Ms Zexy Queen herself on this picture. I’d posted on facebook this week regarding some of the things I’ve learned being a blogger over the last 8 months and one of them was about collaborating with other bloggers. I’ve done it once in the past and always love the opportunity to work with people and learn from them. What have I learned? I take too long getting ready! The Boss would agree, I’m sure lol.

If you want the credits for Zexy’s look, check out her blog HERE. In fact, why don’t you follow it? Lots of gorgeousness to drool over! Needless to say I had a lot of fun putting this picture together and I look forward to future collabs with Ms Queen!

Holly

What could Wynn Say? When the Big Man calls, she runs to his arms. Was it the beard? The bold fashion taste? His booming voice? In all honesty, she didn’t know, but when He ho ho ho’d, she knew she couldn’t say no.

Because it’s not gonna lick itself *obviously*

Ahhhh Christmas (yes, I’m saying it out loud now), here we are. Again. Another year nearly done, another opportunity to overeat and resurrect old family politics in RL and in SL…another opportunity to pick up pixel goodies! I dragged my friend on the Peace on Earth hunt this weekend and am loving some of the items you can see photographed. There are nearly 300 stops on the hunt though, so make sure you check out the hint list for many more prizes. Also, one of my fave stores, Pink Cream Pie, has a month long stocking hunt and this skirt has to be my new favourite item from it. There are 20 stockings to find in total, so get your hunting shoes on!
