My Three Favorite Book Characters

Ok, so I have finished my layouts and I love it. This was easy for me since these books just rocked my world!! Needless to say the Southern Vampire Series has just swept me off my feet, especially since HBO has made True Blood from it! I had so much fun with this. Eric already is cast so finding a pic of him was easy, but the other characters were fun cause I have thought about and have spoken with others and what they pictured them to look like. Bones from the Night Huntress series I picture like Chris Evans from the Fantastic Four, and Vishous from the Black Dagger Brotherhood is a model named David Gandy who I tweaked with photoshop to resemble what author JR Ward has described him as.

I can't recommend these books enough. I love love love them, and these 3 just top the list for me. I do want to say that Dr. Kay Scarpetta came in very close, I even had Diane Lane's picture already to go, but then just stuck with my boys. I think Patricia Cornwell is off the charts with her character, and the books I've read are wonderful.

Eric Northman from Southern Vamp Series and Bones from Night Huntress I put a little butterfly on the corner there -





Vishous from Black Dagger Brotherhood, yes that is how the author spells it and he has a butterfly too -



JR Ward describes his eyes as the pupils like diamonds, quite haunting




Love the quote



Well I hope you like them. I loved this and can't wait to start on the other cj's!

My sign in page is not done yet, I'll get that going and have it posted by Monday.

I'm adding an addendum here. After posting I thought, "Well gee I should list some of the products I used." So here we go. The paper is from DCWV stack, I glimmer misted the papers. I used Tim Holtz's grunge board wings and heart on my tag, along with my brad and his key on the simply page. There is stickles around several of the elements, I also stickled the photo corner on Vishous' pic. I used my cricut with the home accents cart for the butterfly. The quote and journal papers were cut on my Big Shot using my nestibilty die. I love those things!! I can't remember the name of the stack but when I go upstairs I'll check on it
