Chibiwakki -

Do you mind me asking what medium the image on the front of your shrine is made of?
Its stunning!

Thanks
Amy

Actually, I just drew it on regular paper and then went over it with a black liner pen and markers. The hard part was cutting it out. I'm really happy the way the design turned out, too.

[viciouskittie]

is that a foil paper?

i got my package from mellyp!

it's very very fun. i'd asked for a shrine to an actual person, clara bow, and she did a wonderful job!

it has a pretty red velvet curtain on the front (as well as a cute flapper button, and gold glitter),

and when you pull the curtain aside, this is what you see!

there are little battery operated spotlights! how fabulous is that? she even sent batteries!

the sides are decorated with gold stars and film strip stickers

and the top says moxie and sass in gold print.

and the back has one of my favourite pictures of clara, with pearls and the word It! (clara was the original it girl).


and she sent lovely other goodies too!

loteria cards and milagros and a really neat little mary shrine, and she wrote a little note on a mary card. i was very excited about everything!

I just don't even know what to say anymore - everything is so wonderful...and unique! Great job everyone!!!

i was waiting for everyone to recieve before i did it, but there's just one person left, so i've gone ahead and did everyone elses.

unfortunately, i screwed up and created duplicates. I'M SO SORRY EVERYONE!

the following people all have duplicates. argh! i'm so sorry. i'll PM Leah to find out about fixing them.
