18th Birthday!

 It was my18th Birthday on Wednesday! I had an awesome day and went to dinner with some friends from training and my family. I got some amazing gifts, So I had to blog about how beautiful some were. I can't wait to take some ideas from the gifts and include them in my artwork...

ZENIT-E Vintage Camera

My Mom found me this in a Vintage shop for real cheap. Its so beautiful. I've had some vintage cameras before, Including an Chinon and Nikon, but sold them a while back. Hopefully I can get some film this week and make some awesome pictures. 

Bracelets

My friends know me so well. I got 4 bracelets for my birthday.  The top silver one is an Elements love heart from my Friends at training. Its lovely. The next one down is from my Best Friend Amy, Its a Nalu Surf Bead & Bracelet and Its so me! This girl knows me so well. The bead is beautiful. The next one down is home-made by my friends daughter, Gracie. She's 5 and this bracelet rocks! The next one down is from my moms friend and my boss (!), from Pandora. Its so me, I love all of them and will treasure them dearly!

Kat Von D's "Tattoo Chronicles"

Even though I prefer the Miami and NY Ink shows, I do really love Kat. This book is so inspiring, the artwork is amazing and the photographs are beautiful. Its definitely a special book to keep. The pictures above are ones I particularly love. I think Kat looks so beautiful in the top one, I plan on sketching that out...
