Ok well this is what I sent. My partner may have flaked and at this point that's what we're calling it.
Onto the photos! They're kind of not-too-great because I was hoping she would take pics too. I just did quickie camera phone pics.
Crime Scene card I sent to her explaining what was in her package.
A bamboo tile bracelet with a bunch of Deb quotes. They took forever. I ended up writing the quotes with a pin and black paint. It took about 3 hours from start to finish. I listened to the Curious Case of Benjamin Button all the way through on mp3 while I made this bracelet.
"My psychokiller fiance? Please, I've had worse. At least he paid for my meals!"
"A motherf-in', roly-poly, chubby-cheeked, sh--machine?"
"Got laid. Big time."
"Watching ice melt. This is fun."
"Metric f-- ton"
"A gross, English, titty vampire."
"Cause serial killers are so practical."
"I don't f-- and tell."
A blood spatter bamboo tile necklace. It just has a simple J in the corner.
I made a set of 8 early Valentine's day cards, complete with gore a la Dex.
The cards have awesomely creepy lines like, "I want your DNA" or "You're my favorite slice of life." Some are cheesy biology pickup lines. There is also one blank.
Also included:
* "hey, wanna play?"
* I would bleed for you.
* one blank
* I keep bleeding love.
* My DNA wants to party with yours.
And finally, I made a little sewing kit out of a PURE mint container. I liked that it had the mirror and then a little secret compartment underneath. I used too much mod-podge and it wouldn't go back together perfectly but I think it was still usable and fun.
I used the pics of her least favorite people. Quinn is a needle holder, Maria is dismembered. I freehanded the bottom Dexter logo. Maria is the deep, tin part where you can store buttons, little thread wraps or whatnot.
This is the underside of the two Dexter logos. It says, "When you want something sharp" (like a needle).
So that's what I sent.
