Surprise! I'm sorry I've been away for so long. I've sort of gotten away from making icons and graphics, especially with the craziness of university life. However, ABC's new show "Once Upon a Time" has me completely head over heels. It is an AMAZING show — like a Gail Carson Levine novel, and Disney, with some other darker elements and something like "Doctor Who." I hope you enjoy these (whoever is still interested).

These have definitely been distracting me from my schoolwork... but they're tons more fun so I don't mind. ;) Many of you have been asking I was going to make more, and considering how many there are for the second episode alone, that may be a dangerous question. Hope you enjoy, and more are on the way.

Wow, that took much longer than I anticipated — and this was only about 20 minutes of the series. I think I've watched this part about four times now, at least, and reading the end of the novel makes it that much sweeter. Whatever reservations I may have had about Romola Garai and Jonny Lee Miller have vanished and I ship Emma and Knightley hard! I think it's how beautifully this series (and the ending specifically) shows the special friendship Emma and Knightley have that is the foundation of their romantic relationship — something unique to most of Austen's couples (save for Fanny and Edmund, perhaps? Hey, Jonny Lee Miller has something there.)

I hope you all enjoyed this picspam! And the series. What are your thoughts? Yay or nay?


Oh, and I couldn't help sneaking in some Jane and Frank picspamming love, too. They are just too adorable!

No surprise that the first thing I icon in awhile is the newest Jane Austen adaptation, yes? It's all very pretty, too! I'm not 100% sure what I think of it all, though I truly enjoy Romola Garai as Emma — and Jonny Lee Miller as Mr. Knightley. I have to admit, the script can be a little disappointing, especially since it's Sandy Welch, for whom I had high expectations. Still, I can't wait to see part two!

I apologize for my lack of posting here. My summer kept me very busy at camp and I've been away from my computer for awhile. That being said, I was struck with inspiration when I saw the promo pictures of the new Emma miniseries that the BBC is doing this fall, starring Jonny Lee Miller and Romola Garai. I rather like the overall look they've got happening. I hope you enjoy!

First of all I'd like to apologize for the lack of updates this poor journal has seen. I haven't had much of a "muse" it seems — at least not one that sticks around to see a set completed. It's also due to my busier schedule with school.

The upside is, there a lot more icons here than I originally thought! The first half is quite new, and the last few are older — some that haven't been posted and I wanted to share them with you. :)

You can see there's a lot of different colourings. I've been playing around with techniques and styles, some influenced by favourite icon makers. I hope you like everything! I would definitely appreciate any feedback you have, too.

I've finally got my "muse" back. ;) I haven't been very creative at school, but I suppose that now it's almost done, I needed to make a wallpaper last night. It's of the new miniseries "Tess of the D'Urbervilles" that aired on BBC in the fall.

I'm sorry I haven't updated recently. I've been busy with camp in the summer, and now I've started university! So that's been a big change. I haven't had much in the way of topics to icon, either. Then I came across a set I made awhile and figured it's about time I shared them!

They're just silly, but I've made a "Mrs" set, so you can be "married" to your favourite literary male! (I threw in some actors, too.) This was actually inspired by a conversation and inside joke with three_nails.
