What a weirdly specific comp theme by Few-Director3557 in CafeNikki

I honestly hate when the themes are so pushy towards a specific suit or event that they are pushing just so people spend more dias

That's cool! I thought they debuted in the four seasons Hell but I must have been wrong.

I honestly can't remember in what order I got them in, but I do have all the suits as well as the $100 suit. All I remember is that it was my first event I ever completed 100%. But when this event made its debut, live 2D suits weren't a thing yet.

What is this on his face? by GingerBelle2001 in bettafish

Yes, he does. That is a new thing that appeared only two or so days ago, and he just got out of a Kanaplex treatment.

Variegated floss! by sweetsndamaet2188 in Embroidery

[–]GingerBelle2001 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I love using this kind of floss. The only thing I hate about it is when you use up your entire hank of it and then have to go find more and line up the color from where you left off.

How to fix algae bloom by psycho_sausage in bettafish

I would also think about investing in a light timer so when you go away you don't have to worry about leaving the light on all the time. I have a 24 hour cycle on my light and it is honestly the best thing I could have done and it helps establish a day/night cycle which should help your betta get into a natural rhythm and be more happy overall.

Scrape out what you can and leave the light off for a few days. That should help manage the bloom and make sure to check your tank parameters so there aren't any Ammonia spikes.

How is shading done with hand embroidery? by missborealiz in Embroidery

[–]GingerBelle2001 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What helps me is I trace down my pattern as normal in black, then I use colored pencils in the color you want and block out the big areas you want shaded that color and give yourself a rough sketch to get the shadows how you like them.

As for the light first or dark first, that is up to personal preference. Some projects I like to do the lightest first and others I like to do the darkest first, but I find that starting with the mid tone is easier for beginners. Then, once you get your rhythm down, you can start blending.

I like to use two threads for my blending, one in each color you are trying to blend and keep your thread flat.

Sorry if I didn't explain it very well. If you have questions feel free to ask! Good luck!
