Contest and tutorial

So my blogs birthday was on the 7th of this month and It passed right by me. I'm sad cuz I wanted to do something really special. But thats ok. I'll do something special anyway. But since I couldn't figure out a way for people to not cheat by commenting here. I'll do a twitter challenge.

The game:

Just RT(retweet) this tweet http://twitter.com/zambicandy/status/25372615987 and I'll put all the twitter names in a raffle drawing. The only rule is that your twitter account has to be more than 3 days old. You can't make a new account just to win this. But I will have contests like this in the future so if you want to make a twitter account for future contests go right ahead :) You just can't play this one!

The prizes:
1. A free necklace from my shop
2. A colored drawing that looks similar to this: http://zamora.zamomo.com/blog/cuppysSMALL.jpg of you or your character.
3. A unicorn sticker set: http://www.etsy.com/transaction/33922269
4. And a 8.5x11 print signed by me (or not signed if thats what you prefer)
I have a lot to chose from and I'll give you all the details once the contest is over and the winner is chosen!

So this contest ends Sunday. :) Goodluck!

Now on to a tutorial! I've been meaning to make tutorials for my blog since I made it but never got around it it... SO here we go :)

Just click on the image to make it bigger!



And I'm sorry if anything is confusing. I tried to explain it as best as I could and also have pictures so you could see what I mean but I couldn't get everything to fit. Anyways. Hopefully it helped!

DokiDoki

I wanted to go to San fran and say hi to Amy and eat delicious food and explore Japantown SO I DID.

We got there around 9 and stopped at Dynamo donuts. We shared the Caramel de sel and the maple bacon! The maple bacon one has apple in it and its GREAT and the caramel one has orange *_*



The display at the counter is really cute!


And I snapped a photo of them making a batch of maple bacon!


on the way back I spotted a bakery with little alligator bread! xD


And these cool and nifty paper cut outs!




And San Francisco has the prettiest buildings!


Then we stopped over by the Metreon and they had a Halloween store :D DID YOU KNOW THAT I LOVE HALLOWEEN? It is amaze. TM Msh

There was a fashion walk with the Doki Doki shop girls and other cute ladies. I took some pics of these cute ladies.

Vani

I didn't get anybody else because I forgetttttt.

But anyways! Then we walked around and looked at stuff and I was conned into buying a hair bow by Vani because shes so adorable I couldn't resist! D: She came up to me and was so friendly and cute and in my mind we bonded over cuteness. *fantasy* ouhh its so cute AND it doubles as a pin so I can put it on my clothes too :D SPARKLERURURU


Then we did some wandering around and I was naughty and bought a bag u__u I saw it and was like good mother of god. But you know the bag wanted me too. I could tell. We looked deep into each others eye and fell madly in love! All my stuff fits so perfectly in it too!


haha yea saw this. WHY IS HELLO KITTY YELLING AT ME???? hahahaha!


And these were in a display window *O* so cute! They remind me of that little toy where you fish and theres a magnet on the fishing pole?


Then for dinner we had sushi :D



I had fun! twas a good day.

And recently I ordered some new sugarpill colors *3* Birthday girl, Paperdoll, and Stella!


I always try to take pics of the make up on me but my camera only wants to pick up yellow :\ and its sooo annoying!



I found these recently too!!! *c* they are iridescent but you can't see in the pic! I'm going to deco these babies up!


And I saw this and was like MUST HAVE AND MAKE INTO HAIR ACCESSORY but it already had a hair clip TuT now I have to find a way to add something to it so I'm not just reselling it. But god isn't it adorable?

Sweet streets

So I forgot my camera and there were tears for miles and miles. My phone also died as soon as I got there....But as I expected I knew people were going to take pictures and upload videos so here are some things!

I didn't get to see this at all because everyone was so tall and I am not so tall. And that makes me sad because look at how adorable everyone is. If I had a fashion show I would love for it to be like this! Everyone is dancing and having fun! Soooooo sooooo cute!



I totally see my friend Jackie in this vid :D

Speaking of which she was so lovely and made me a bow ;o; SO SWEET. LOOK AT HOW CUTE IT IS! And its great because its a pin so I can attach it to my clothes ;O;!


And here is another Vid!

This poster is so old and falling apart. It came in a magazine I bought ages ago. Its one of my favorite pictures. And the 2 things beside them are from my friends Liz and Mary. They are so talented!


I love this Sailor moon picture. I love any picture where the girls are wearing matching outfits. So cute!


These are so so old. I blew them up into poster size images at Kinkos from playing cards I own a million years ago and have had them ever since.


This is another one of my favorite posters. I love how everyone looks all dolled up.


These images are from miss Emily Warren :) Shes so talented and amazing!


Frames I bought from Plasticland. I love them so much. I couldn't find anything to put in them so I just used my own images.

Lovely fanart from the lovely Joodles :D And a picture my friend Gustav drew me. Hes one of my favorite artists in the world. I really miss his art.

My little Rambi is hanging on the keychain! You can see a bigger version here: http://msh.deviantart.com/gallery/#/dp57md and then Spazzy gave this to me at Fanime a couple years ago :) Its a Rambi!

Alien nine figurines! I love this show to death. I love the voices and music and its just a well made show. its only a couple of episodes tho. And it kind of ends on a cliff hanger. But I love it. Its cute but also creepy! So of course I had to get these.


A cute little Lion king polly pocket thing? I used to be super obsessed with The Lion King when I was younger. I still have all the crap I bought too. Like View finder, color forms, coloring books, toys, stuffed animals, stickers, and so on and so on.


A piggy and Sheep my friend bought for me :D (I'm a ram and my bf is a piggy)

And scattered throughout are littlest pet shop toys. Little bunnies and kitties and puppies! So cute :)
