21st Century Pillow Book

Hello! It's time for a brand new challenge with Wicked Wednesday . This week, we are sponsored by the amazing Vera Lane Studio . I looooove these digis. They're so fun and funky. The challenge theme is "Something in the Sky." I used the Whimsical Sailor plus a sun and sentiment from that collection. I colored the images up with my Memento Markers from Imagine Crafts. The clouds were all created using the Picasso Shield/Stencil from Dreamweaver Stencils. I found a pretty blue cardstock that has some little bits of glitter, and I thought it was perfect for the sky. Thank you so much to Vera Lane Studio for sponsoring Wicked Wednesday again. Hopefully, I will get another ATC made for this challenge before next week. Please be sure to visit the Wicked Wednesday Blog to see more fabulous ATC's. Thanks for stopping by. Have an inspiring day!

Anyway, it's about the Chinese Zodiac and how all the main characters in this one family (the Somas) represent each of the animals n the zodiac. But the most important character is Tohru. She is a girl that discovers the secret of the Soma family. Basically, she doesn't have an animal that she becomes but the Somas think of her as a Riceball. There's a lot more to it than that but... I...
