“Two roads to Courage” | COLT + RANE Welcome to Pix-O-Sphere Magazine - Taste it. • Sabina Kelley Put up your dukes. International model sensation Sabina Kelley is ready to take you hostage with her switchblade stilettos. One part Bettie Page, another part centerfold, Sabina is outlasting trends that lay beaten and bludgeoned at her feet. You are a formally trained ballet dancer and a former Vegas showgirl. Hell ya! We think you would too. I discovered the world of burlesque with my love for pinups. As a modern pinup, you’ve really carved out a unique niche for yourself by being one of the first to really put a rockabilly tattooed twist on a Bettie Paige style. I think maybe in a way, but I was not intentionally doing that. There’s been some debate with photographers that we’ve talked to that the communities like SucideGirls and GodsGirls are a fading trend. I’m not part of SuicideGirls or GodsGirls, but I do agree that SuicideGirls and GodsGirls are fads. You and Anne Lindfjeld were recently featured in Playboy together. Switchblade Stilettos is the name of your site.

DIY Wrap Bracelet You should all know by now that we are all about stacking bracelets on our wrists. The more, the better. In fact . . . the most, the best! You’ll need (for a double wrapped bracelet) :* Lengths will vary depending on the size of your wrist (see comments for suggestions). Fold the length of leather cording in half to form a loop. Place the ball chain along the leather cording with the end of the chain meeting the end of the wrap. Continue wrapping while checking it for fit around the wrist. When you have reached the end of the ball chain wrap the linen cording around the leather strands 2-3 more times. Thread the hex nut through the strands and tie a second knot. Trim with scissors and your wrap bracelet is finished!! The materials are listed for a double wrap bracelet. It’s a party!

Honestly WTF Making a Print-Ready Business Card Using Only Photoshop In this tutorial, we are going to design up a simple business card in Photoshop and get it ready for print with crop marks and bleed. Normally you'd do some of this with a tool like InDesign, but it is in fact possible to get by with just our trusty old Photoshop. Calling Card Competition Over at our sister site FreelanceSwitch, there is a competition to make business cards using vectors from a special Arsenal sample pack. So if you'd like to Win $370 worth of vector gear, head over and put in your entry! I actually had to make an example card for the write-up, and while making it, decided to write a tutorial for what I was doing (which is what you are about to read :-) ) Step 1 Ok, so the very first thing we need to do is create a New Document. When sending things off to printers however, you need to add a sort of border around the image called a Bleed. Because of a quirk of Photoshop (which you'll see later) we're going to use a value of 3mm. Step 2 Step 3 Step 4 Step 5 Step 6 Step 7 Step 8
