#31DC2013 Inspired By A Book - The Rachel Morgan Series


With LO around, I haven't been able to read as much as I use to.  The most recent book I read was the last installment of the Rachel Morgan series by Kim Harrison.  It was recommended to me by a friend who enjoyed reading the Sookie Stackhouse series, so I thought it would be a good read.  After getting past the first hump of a book, I was hooked to the rest of the series.  It's been a gradual build up across the eleven books, but I'm impressed because the series continues to get better and better, rather than deflating like other series I've read(I'm looking at you Charlaine Harris!). I can barely wait for the next book to be released.



To start, I know I need to have a base of black to represent the black leather that Rachel wears throughout the series.  I then added her trusty handcuffs and splat gun.  I used the cover of the Ever After to draw Rachel on my ring finger.  For some reason, while I was doing the cover from memory, I thought she was facing away with her back on the cover.  I painted Jenks, her trusty sidekick fairy on my ring finger.  To finish, I used Essie Matte About You on the pinky, middle, and thumb to give it a leather appearance and some Savina holo glitter on Rachel and Jenks to represent their magic.
