Just a quick post to tide you over....

Media By MAC

This is a really lovely lipstick, it has the typical MAC vanilla cupcake smell, its a really beautiful wine colour, and definitely one of my favourite lipstick colours EVER.

You can wear it lightly for a 

berry stain

or build it up for a 

beautiful deep wine colour

A beautiful colour that's a perfect introduction to darker lip colours

fonts, every little helps

In my opinion the font that you use with images makes a big difference. I've curently become obsessed with using fonts over images; whether I'm labelling swatches, or just adding a few words or a title over a photo. I am obsessed. 

So i thought i would share with you some fonts i have been liking and where you can get them

1) Anome Ibul (here)  2) Antrokas (here)  3)Brain flower (here)  4)Signerica Thin (here)

My go-to site for free fonts with thousands to choose from is dafont.com. It's a great website with hundreds of new fonts each day and has resulted in me having thousands of fonts in my font book on my mac!

I think I'm going to put together a font folder that i can flip through when I'm looking for a certain type of font. 

The perfect rainy day project!

Just a quick DIY

Some DIY inspiration for our lovely readers, i have been making some cards and envelopes for friends for christmas. i used an envelope template which i altered slightly on illustrator and photoshop and then added the galaxy photos from here (some incredible photos on that site!), added font, printed it out, cut it, folded it and VOILA! there you have some unique envelopes, sure they aren't very festive but they're so sparkly i think i can get away with it ;)
