Stickermaking

• daily

After a long time of wanting to but forgetting to, Jumelle and I started trying to figure out the Silhouette Portrait machine to make stickers

It’s been a bit of a struggle, but I’ve tried to take a lot of thorough notes of troubleshooting and tips, so hopefully that will be helpful in the future… so far, I’ve almost got most of the process down, but I think the cutting can be inconsistent near the bottom edges and/or the later along the machine cuts

Also, I think it’s probably just my art style but the print looks a bit blurry When we printed one of my old Animal Crossing designs drawn in a sharp line style though that one looked okay. So I’m thinking it’s just my art style on these, or maybe it’ll be better on glossy paper?

Here were some of my mangled ones. LOL

I have so many “poor” copies of this sticker set now to use in my journal

Miumiu has been doing really well lately, after she was sick the last month, we’ve been so worried but thankfully she seems to be doing well again Her new favourite lounge spot seems to be this little couch now!

I finally swapped out my keyboard to use the Dreamscape keycaps I preordered in 2021 and received a few months ago. To match, I set a Kokomi wallpaper I still kind of miss when my desk is all white but it’s also nice to have variety to play around with decorating!

Recently, I finally cleaned up my shoe cabinet so it wasn’t so messy. The long boots are in the bottom boxes along with some off-season shoes. On top of the Billy bookcase, I put some huge platforms that I don’t wear much.

Overall, I’m really happy with my shoes collection I recall recently writing that I rarely buy shoes of the same design in different colours, but since I have more of a consistent style these days, I know which kinds of shoes I’ll wear more now so it’s less risky for me to buy the same designs.

Fun eats recently: we had Tender Greens for a date night, where I got the seasonal “Blue Zone” bowl. After watching the Netflix show on it, I was really intrigued, but…

I didn’t realise the sauce had dairy in it (it’s yoghurt-based) and the server forgot to exclude cheese after I asked for the modification, so I was a bit ill after it sadly, despite how tasty it was I really love the black lentils and purple potatoes, but I didn’t like the fruit (?) in the arugula salad because it tasted a bit like soap. I really wanted to try this with the roasted mushrooms but my stomach doesn’t think I should order it again

However, the Trader Joe’s Spicy Tempura Seaweed Snack is such a hit!!! My manz tried this on a whim and told me how addictive it is to eat, and got me this bag to try. It absolutely is true

I could have eaten the entire bag in one sitting

This is quite from a way back, but I really liked how I set up my ridiculous Neuvillette journal page when his banner released I don’t use my photo printer a lot but I’m happy when I do!! This motivates me to use it more…

Jumelle randomly made me a maple cinnamon milk tea for the season. Maple is one of my favourite flavours, it made me so happy

It’s so cute… I don’t think I can bear to use it
