I made this one for Deementia at the haven. The first cap I ever received in my folder was from Miss Dee. In her words she broke my cap cherry. I hope you all enjoy it.
Also I'd like to thank Dawn again for helping me out on my blog. Dawn, one day I hope I can repay you.
I've always wondered what wet hose would feel like on my legs. Lol! Am I the only one?
Before anyone beats me up over Pink's video having subtitles in another language. It also doesn't have any advertising. LOL! I actually love Pink. She has that 50 style Pin Up Rock-a-Billie look. I think that is so hot. I have been really trying to give you a couple of caps a week and it has been good for me too. I miss capping like I did last winter.
This cap was for a friend at the Haven as most of them are anymore. Chelsea Baker, who is a great capper herself. I owed her one now for quite sometime. I hope she likes it and I also hope all you like it as well.
I will tell you all something. I am very happy to say that taking it easy was a great decision. I feel like there has been a load taken off of my shoulders. Funny thing is, now I want to cap like crazy and I have a day or two to give in to my cravings. I hope you are not mad at me for my little time off. But believe me when I say if I didn't take it my caps would have begun to suffer from it. I hope you all like my little addition to Tranzmutes previous Sisters of Fate cap. I changed the editors name so I could make it into a personal one for her. And considering how he plowed Katie on the desk I felt Plowed by Sponge was appropriate for the cap. I love this band.
Anyway, I wanted to know exactly who is reading these anyway. And for those who already post comments, Thank You so much. Believe me when I say they mean everything to me. I wanted to ask a question and maybe see who answers it. Last week or so a new friend of mine, Dee, who needs no introduction. If you do not know who she is you better find out. You don't know what you are missing out on. Dee-lusions of Grandeur is her blog and you can see many of her caps at the Haven as well. Dee asked a question on her blog and it didn't get the response I think it deserved. I was really excited to hear some of the responses. The question was ,
What was your earliest TG memory? I've had quite a few as a
youngster, so perhaps if you share yours below, I will post some more
spread out over the next week or two. Were you jealous of slumber parties and makeovers? Curious to what was going on at the beauty parlor instead of the barber shop? Feel free to talk about it below.
I responded with one of my favorite memories. I know there must be more then Dee and myself out there that had some good ones. So if you would be so kind as to tell me your favorite one or one that stands out most. Just leave them in the comments. I will post my response here and then I hope to hear your memories.
First off I know this one isn't my earliest but it is one that stands out in my mind.
I
had a friend who lived up the street from me. She and I were always
together. She was such a tom boy. I actually remember being in a
Christmas concert when I was maybe 7 or 8 years old. She was right in
front of me during the performance. If anyone were to take notice of me
out of the other 100 plus children on stage they probably would have
seen me staring at her the whole show.
She always wore jeans and
sneakers. To me she was just one of my friends. But that night she was
wearing a dress and white tights. I remember actually being jealous of
her and what she was wearing. I remember feeling that I would give
anything to switch places with her..
And of course I had
countless cousins that were the same way you explained. But for some
reason that one particular moment stands out.
But to be perfectly honest Dee, I still have moment like this all the time. Somethings never change. ;)
This is yet another great cap by a good friend from the Haven. She goes by the name Tranzmute. I love this cap. It touched on a ton of buttons for me. Let her know what you think by giving her some love. The Sisters of Fate have become somewhat popular for my friends over at the Haven. And I do so love when they make their version of these characters. Thanks for a great cap Luna. I Loved it..
xoxoxo Katie
I felt like this song fit well with this cap. "When they come for me i'll be sitting at my desk with a gun in my hand wearing a bullet proof vest. Singing my, my ,my how the time does fly when you know your gonna die by the end of the night."
Well this is the last of my 2-4-1 offers. Raven who is another new friend I met at Rachel's Haven, made her amazing version of The Sisters of Fate. I think she did a great job. And told her story so well to the picture. This may be the longest time in the past 2 months that I had this blog where I didn't post a thing of my own. (Except when I got sick) I have actually taken some time and thought about this. I really think I want to make a few less caps throughout the week. I have a very demanding job and a family. I try my best to make quality caps as well. And for the people who come and visit my blog, I really appreciate all of your support. And let me tell you, comments will get you everywhere.
But on another note, I, aside from my blog, I am just like most of you. I like to read TG stories and captions. I like reading TG Comics as well. But having a blog really cuts into that time that I used to surf and read other blogs by artists that are probably much better then myself. And I really enjoyed reading their work. I still keep up on a few of my favorites but there are a ton of sites I would love to catch up on.
Now so everyone can breath easy, I am not stopping my site. I have no intention to ever stop captioning. I love it way too much. I believe my friend Dee's actual words were, "Katie is like a kid in a candy store." Pertaining to my recent membership to the greatest site ever, Rachel's Haven. But I am going to slow down a bit. I am going to enjoy this wonderful community that has always been here for me. I am going to read through other blogs and I am not going to get myself into a full blown anxiety attack if I haven't posted something in the last 4 hours. LOL!
And for those of you who read my blog everyday I believe that you probably do genuinely like my work and you will still stop by from time to time. Ha! I don't want to toot my own horn or anything but I have put out over 200 caps in just, just over 2 months. And I am proud of that. What I am most happy about is meeting all the new friends, I really want to just name them all but I wouldn't have enough time. This little blog started out a short two months ago with one loyal friend, Miss Hailey Pixley. And she still is a great friend. And if you haven't been over to "A Tights Spot" yet then what are you waiting for.
Again, above all else, thank you everyone for putting Sugar and Spice on the map. I really love doing the work. I also feel like I need to get back to my roots and start writing the stuff that pushed all my buttons. If you have anything to comment, please leave one. Even if its just a simple hello. And don't forget to leave Miss Raven some love for the wonderful cap.
Thanks everyone for reading my ramble. xoxoxo Katie Mills
I have been going through a bit of a pattern lately. I usually can make a few caps a day. But my life is getting a little more complicated at the moment. So I have been going through small breaks where I do not have the time I was used to. But it seems to work out that the girls from the Haven make me some wonderful caps like this one from AnneOniMousewho needs no introduction to the community. I have been following her work long before Katie Mills surfaced. If you haven't seen her work please check out one of her sites. You can get to her other sites from here as well.
I am so happy all the girls like the characters on our blog. And the write and define them so wonderfully. And when I seem to be stuck with no time. They make it possible that you still have great TG Caps to read. And in return I have caps that I owe them and then I produce more work.. Its a amazing cycle that seems to be working as of late. And with caps like these I wouldn't change it for the world..
I would like to present you all with another one of Miss Linda Mallone's caps from the Haven. She did an excellent job on yet another Sisters of Fate story. She seems to have become very smitten with the Sisters Characters and she does an wonderful job on how she explains just enough so that the Sisters do not lose their mysterious angle. I know everyone really enjoyed her first post because it got over 1200 hits in the end. So I know you will be squirming in your seats when you read her newest cap.. As always, give our dear Linda some love in the comments below. She deserves it. Great Cap Linda.
A new friend at the Haven, Linda Mallone, has made me a trade cap. But when she capped me she decided to make a cap with one of our universe characters in it. Now everyone here already knows how much I love when someone else takes a character of mine and puts their spin on it. Well when I read this one I might as well have jumped for joy. Linda had used the "Sisters of Fate" and she did an AWESOME job.. This is her first appearance on "Sugar and Spice". So leave her some love in the comment section. I have no doubt this will be a popular cap on the blog. Enjoy, I know I did.
This caption was done by a new friend of mine from The Haven, her name is Dani Colorado. She has done many other trading caps with me. But she decided to take a crack at my 2-4-1 offer and made a "Sisters of Fate" cap. I think she was brilliant with the story and words. I loved it, I hope you all do as well. And show Dani some love down in the comments, she will be happy to know what you think......
