Illio friday topic – rain. Having just seen Kamikaze girls – I think I have the girly lolita style of dress on the mind. I decided to go more gothic lolita but I am not much for white. Kamikaze girls was a fun movie – at least it gets an A for effort. It is a story about the unlikely friendship between a country girl obsessed with the Rococo period – hence the parasols and frilly dresses – and a member of an all female biker gang. There are animated sequences and it is very pop culture – colorful and cute. I love the name of her favorite clothing store "Baby, the Stars Shine Bright". ::

Wishing I could have gone to the opening last night of the  Little White Pony Show. But my parents just happen to be on vacation and will be going through Calgary during the show! So at least they will get to scope it out! Off to enjoy the weekend and of course scope out more illios.

Maybe just a little bit of a learning curve. . .not the most intuitive program. Drawing free hand with a mouse. . . yikes! All in all it has been fun to mess around with – it certainly had its way with me. I do wish I could have gotten some of the lines and miscellaneous bits to submit. But I am excited to start trying to figure this program out. .this illio is weirding me out. Have to hide if from myself . . . More
