I love cute picrews!! Spooky!!
A headshot of a woman with a jack-o-lantern for a head. Her eyes are carved in crescent shapes and she has a happy mouth. Her pumpkin head is a light blue. She wears a little witch’s hat, a gold star necklace and a black tanktop with crisscrossing straps with a green bustier over it. She also has little fairy wings, painted black nails, a gold bracelet and a gold engagement ring. In her one visible hand, she hold a basket with a little black cat that wears an orange bandana. The background is a blue and orange ombre with black constellations and light blue dragonflies. The style is hand-drawn and made with picrew. A watermark reads “Gabby Darlenzo”

I have finished Isles of the Emberdark and my new reading order is below.

I put Shadows before Secret History to take a first small step to broaden the cosmere and make sense of the shade comments but all the Threnody refs in Sunlit Man and Isles is making me want it lower for recency… idk…
White text on a black background that says: 1. Mistborn: The Final Empire 2. Mistborn: Well of Ascension 3. Mistborn: Hero of Ages 4. Shadows for Silence 5. The 11th Metal 6. Mistborn: A secret history 7. Elantris 8. Hope of Elantris 9. Emperor’s soul 10. Stormlight: Way of Kings 11. Stormlight: Words of Radiance 12. Warbreaker 13. Edgedancer 14. Stormlight: Oathbringer White text on a black background that reads: 15. Mistborn II: Alloy of the Law 16. Allomancer Jak 17. Tress of the Emerald Sea 18. Mistborn II: Shadows of Self 19.

I love the idea of a book stamp for our personal library, and as we’re getting married soon, my fiancé and I wanted to create an image that represented both of us. I doodled this little thumbnail, and now I’m just looking for an artist to commission it into a proper stamp image!

(See alt text)
A small pencil doodle of a book stamp design. It features a white birch tree on the right and morning glory vines on the left that come together to make a circle. The branch of the birch mingles with vines on the top, while the birch root mingles with vines on the bottom. In the center is a dragon, laying down comfortable and looking up at a large blooming morning glory flower. Its tail wraps around the base of the tree, framing where the tree would meet the earth. Above the image reads “EX LIBRIS” and below the image is a blacked out/ censored section where surnamed were once written. The birch tree represents Ben, the morning glories represent Kay, and the dragon represents them together :)

It’s #meowth! My latest entry in my #scrapbookpokedex. I had sooo many stickers to work with on this one, and I had a lot of fun with the glam vibes!

#pokemon #pokemonart #junkjournal
A scrapbook page dedicated to the pokemon meowth. The base of this page is a dark metalic purple, only visable in a diagonal stripe through the middle, providing contract to the light purple paper secured in the lower left and upper right corners. This paper has metallic gold speckles on it that resemble paint splatters. On top of this purple base layering are several stickers and cutouts of meowth. Gold and purple paper scraps and washi tape help frame them. One large feature of the page is a hexagonal outline in metallic gold paper framing a paper cutout of meowth. In a smaller overlapping hexagon is the icon for meowth’s typing: normal. There are also a few stickers of real cats and one that says “BEWARE OF CAT.” A few accenting scraps of gold paper are cut into ovals to resemble meowth’s forehead piece. There is one torn scrap of paper that is browned around the edges and secured in near middle, framed by a gold and purple paper scrap. It reads,”Meowth is mostly nocturnal, but its eyes will glitter brightly if it sees something shiny.” Another paper scrap in the top middle reads, “MEOWTH scratch cat Pokémon” in yellow text on a clean-cut purple background. Overlapping the right side of this title label is a Meowth pokemon card from the jungle set sleeved in a purple sleeve. The sleeve and the purple and gold elements of the card image compliment the page’s color scheme. The whole thing comes together in organized chaos to give a bit of a glam vibe with the purple and gold. This image is the same as the previous one but angled slightly so that the metallic shimmer can be appreciated.

As promised, #Squirtle! I’m having so much fun with my #scrapbookpokedex this week! This one especially was giving big summer vacation vibes to me. I will post Meowth soon!

#pokemon #pokemonart
A scrapbook page dedicated to squirtle. The page includes cut out images, stickers, and other scraps that include squirtle. Among the squirtles are stickers, washi tape, and paper of water splashes, sunsets, churning water, and the sun. All of this is arranged in organized chaos to evoke a “fun in the sun” theme where Squirtle is splashing around. There is a torn scrap of paper with brown edges amongst the scraps that reads, “Striking regularly with spouts of water, Squirtle can be tricky to see, since it hides within its shell a lot.” A scrap at the top reads, “SQUIRTLE” in large title case followed by “WATER POKEMON” as a subtitle beneath. Yet another scrap taken from a pokemon-a-day calendar reads, “SQUIRTLE WHEN IT RETRACTS its long neck into its shell, it squirts out water with vigorous force. Evolution chain: squirtle >> wartortle >> blastoise CATEGORY: Tiny Turtle HEIGHT: 1’04” / 0.5 m WEGHT: 19.8 lbs / 9.0 kg” Finally, squirtle’s type “water” is indicated with text in the top right. The page prominently features a pokemon tcg card of squirtle from the platinum set.

When I need to get lots of stuff done but lack motivation, I gamify it by assigning each task a damage value and creating a monster to defeat. Here’s my monster for my tasks today!

#executivefunction #d&d
A pencil drawing of a goo monster on lined notebook paper. The monster is essentially a pile of dripping goop with little eyes and a massive goopy dripping mouth. The mouth has telescoping darker shapes inside to give the effect of a very deep maw. The monster also has two big goopy hands reaching from its form. The title “GOO MONSTER” is written in a narrow font in the top left with a goo splash shape beside it for effect. Below the monster is a horizontal HP bar labeled “HP” on the left in red highlighter. The bar is divided in 1/10ths by solid lines and dashed lines in between. On the left end there is a small 0 and on the right there is a small 100 to indicate a total of 100 HP. The halfway point has a small 50. Part of one hand written to-do task can be been in the bottom left that says “5 tidy living room.”

I finally got around to completing my Chansey #scrapbookpokedex page!

I tried scanning the page this time, but the contrast was wonky so I’ve included the photo too

Moments later I realized I did the whole thing upside down 😅 luckily it’s all layered on one background sheet

#pokemon #junkjournal
A scrapbook page dedicated to the Pokémon Chansey. The page has a pale pink and turquoise color scheme with some yellow. There are many stickers and cutouts of Chansey overlapping with colored paper, floral paper, egg stickers, floral stickers, photos of flower fields, and washi tape of cotton flowers. In the top right, a cutout from a Pokemon book reads “Chansey Egg Pokemon” there is a cutout reading “normal” to indicate normal typing. One paper scrap is torn and browned around the edges, reading “This is a very compassionate Pokémon, delivering happiness and sharing its egg with injured people and Pokémon.” There is a faux sticky note in the bottom left that reads, “Pokédex Pick: Chansey make excellent nurses. You can find them in most Pokémon centers taking care of sick and injured Pokémon.” Finally, the page prominently features the Chansey tcg card from Fusion Strike. The vibes of the page overall are cute and springy, and Chansey’s likeness dominates most of the page across 9 stickers/ cutouts of various sizes and the trading card. This image is the same as the scrapbook photo beside it, but instead of being photographed, the page has been scanned digitally. The contrast is lower, the colors lighter, and all of the stickers lay totally flat.

When someone makes an off-color OCD joke I can actually feel my little sims relationship bar go red. Very quick way for me to never like someone

An armaldo-specific fan account followed me and 1) thats a w favorite pokemon, and 2) I now feel the need to prioritize getting a second armaldo card to fill the slot in my binder.

My heart says EX sandstorm (I LOVE the EX series) but my wallet says powerkeepers
A pokemon tcg card from the EX sandstorm set featuring armaldo. It is a cosmos holo and armaldo is in a cool, dynamic pose A pokemon tcg card from the powerkeepers set featuring armaldo. The card is a holo as well, but armaldo is not in a cool pose and does not have a particularly interesting art style

Normal elbows vs mine
A photo of the charles bridge on a foggy evening. The sunset turns the whole scene orange. There are a few silhouettes of people on the bridge and the lamps are lit A “deep fried” version of the same photo of the charles bridge. The sharpness is cranked all the way up and blurred so that the photo is lower resolution and crunchy.

Behold:
A black cat (Jett) with yellow eyes blepping at the camera. The photo is taken head-on as Jett lays on his side under the covers of a bed. At this angle, his eyes are huge. His head is laying on the pillow. Pulled back bedsheets reveal part of a black cat snuggled up. He lays on his side with a paw over his eyes. He is curled up such that his back foot is visible beside his head A sleeping black cat poking out from between light blue bedsheets and a person’s black t-shirt. He is very cute

Gen 1 and 4 are always a toss up for me between grass and water, but I have more memory of my play throughs with the water starters. Meganium is my absolute favorite starter though ♡ I’m so excited to pick chikorita again!!

The fishy boy is done! 🎣
Me using all of my goldfish stickers for the #magikarp page of my #scrapbookpokedex . I’m happy I finally made time to make another page!
#junkjournal #pokemonart
A scrapbook page dedicated to magikarp. The page is comprised over overlapping paper, tape, and stickers in organized chaos. The color palate is blue and orange/ yellow to symbolize the water and magikarp. There are several stickers of magikarp itself and the page prominently features the magikarp tcg card from the EX Dragon set. The tape and paper scraps feature water patterns that the magikarp stickers appear to swim in. One weathered paper scrap reads, “In a once glorious past, Magikarp was as strong and indestructible as it will be once it evolves into Gyarados. But it isn't now. With Splash and Tackle as its only techniques, Magikarp is one of the weaker Pokémon. You can fish for a Magikarp almost anywhere and start training it immediately for evolution.”

Existence is difficult but at least there are kittens
Two cats sleeping on a teal couch. Both cats have short, black fur, but one looks reddish-brown in the sunlight. They lay about 2 feet apart but face one another.

He also wears socks with sandals.

It’s #cubone, baby! I had so much fun with this #scrapbookpokedex page!!
A scrapbook page dedicated to the Pokémon cubone. Scraps of paper and stickers are overlapped in organized chaos. The color scheme is orange/ brown and dark bluey-purple.

Sometimes Cubone's dreams make it cry, but each tear Cubone sheds makes it stronger.”
