Pacman & Megaman






so i've tried to keep busy with some projects lately & here's a couple i've completed..megaman & pacman! i actually thought of the frames first before i even started but then after i'd finished the megaman one, i could NOT find the frame i had envisioned! i went to target...nothing. walmart..nothing. hobby lobby...nothing! so i was in the dollar general one day getting some things for my work & decided to take a look at the frames...lo & behold...the perfect frames! yay!

i like the pacman one best. notice that they're all looking at each other :)

i wanted them both to look like an action sequence type deal. megaman goes from standing, to running, to shooting, & to jumping. the one mistake i made on megaman though is that i cut away too much of the canvas..:( that sucks. so i'm going to sell that one for pretty cheap on etsy.

all in all, i'm happy with them! i have another embroidery project i'm working on right now & several ideas for other cross stitches. i think next will be a hail satan one! haha. then a prochoice one and then..i don't know. something! i had to scratch my hello kitty idea because someone else has done it & i don't want anyone thinking i'm stealing their ideas or trying to copy them. i may do a little simple knitting project as well. continue working on my crocheting skills. woo! i love some days off! i get to devote more time to crafting :)

on a side not, is anyone else having problems with craftster? it's being so fucking slow with me & it's so irritating! it's been like that for about a week now.

in other news, i hope everyone is doing well with the hurricane. we haven't gotten much over here, just quite a bit of rain & wind. i know we're lucky.

These are so friggin' cool! I love the little PacMac ghost guys! Great frames for them both...it was worth the mission you went on, methinks. :)
