HOLIDAY TEXT HELP

Dec 07 2008 08:50 pm   #1nmcil
I am hoping that someone can help me with these Holiday Season graphics - looking for a story or small piece to go with these Victorian style images.  One is for William Pratt - notes at Christmas time and one is Spike telling Buffy about his past Christmas times.  Text can be changed to reflect any changes needed.

HOPE that one of the wonderful BSV writers can help me out - especially as I would like to post these at my gallery site for Holiday Season and also post with my Noel_Spike entry. 

Images are open for use - totally Spuffy

I'm giving deep consideration here to the William story.  I like the little metal bird.  Looks like something William would give his lady love.  Or his mom.
If we want her to be exactly she'll never be exactly I know the only really real Buffy is really Buffy and she's gone' who?

That is an original Victorian ornament - it is really lovely, have images of several others - ends up that I had an original Victorian era art glass ornament in my collection - a white reindeer, I saw a similar Victorian original from the site that matches the same glass, color and style of my reindeer.  Unfortunately, one year someone broke one of the antlers and tried to hide the piece with the inside of the tree - I saw it right away. 

Hope that you can be moved to do something - even just a little drabble would be appreciated.  I just hate to offer the images without some text to go with them.  I know that Buffyverse FF has Spike with a sister in some stories.

Here is a variation on the William Christmas Image I need some text for - added a Christmas Helleborus (sp?) Rose to fill in some of background.  Here is link to the larger image:   http://www.flickr.com/photos/nmcil/3096919594/sizes/o/

Wonderful - I've cooked up a story and I'll see if I can put it together by Sunday.  It's fun working with an image this way, sort of like a visual challenge.  William looks so silly  :)

Thank you so very much - I can't wait to see what your story will be - really appreciate your efforts - feel free to use the image if you post your story at any of your groups or sites - I will post it at the Whedon World Gallery and post a link at the Noel of Spike back here or at any link you want - just let me know.
