FOB2Y 10/9

Today's quiz was an ice cream personality quiz. I think mine was right on!




Your Ice Cream Personality:



You are an incredibly modest person. You don't feel comfortable bragging about yourself... or even receiving complements.



You are incredibly cautious. You rather miss out on something than make a mistake. No one would ever call you wild... but they would call you responsible.



You are a somewhat open minded person, but deep down you're fairly conservative. You don't like trying new things very much. And if you do find something new you like, you stick with it.



You tend to have a one track mind. You prefer not to multitask.



You can be a big dramatic and over the top sometimes. You are bold in every way

FOB2Y 10/2

So the topic this week is fast food...yum. I like it way too much. lol. I'd have to say my favorite fast food place is Raising Cane's. It's a fast food place that started right off the LSU campus and has since become a Louisiana hot spot. Now they're all over the state and rapidly spreading to other states. Their munu? Chicken fingers. Yep, that's it. And they are sooo yummy! We eat there at least once every two weeks or so. Mmmm, I might have some tonight! lol

SSD FOB2Y 9/11

ha. Seems like the only posts I have are for SW points lately! lol. I'll try to do better. In the meantime,




You Are 70% Real



You know who you are, and you're pretty darn comfortable with yourself.

Like everyone, you struggle with the parts of yourself that aren't so great...

But you're good at accepting who you are and not dwelling on your faults.

As a result, you're confident, optimistic, and very real.

SSD FOB2Y 8/28

Today was a spelling test. :) I usually do pretty well on these:




Your Common Spelling Mistake Score: 95% Correct



Your spelling is excellent.

You don't fall for common spelling pitfalls, and you spell almost everything correctly.

SSD FOB2Y 8/21

Who were you in High School? I took this quiz today. I don't think it's all that accurate, but oh well. What do you expect with 5 questions? lol




You Were the Arty Kid



Whether you were a drama freak or an emo poet, you definitely were expressive and unique.



You're probably a little less weird these days - but even more talented!

New Products!

Today I want to highlight some fab new digital designs!

First of all, Sweet Shoppe Designs has a new designer...drumroll please...Kay Miller! Woohoo! Kay's designs were the very first digital scrapbooking kits I bought when I first got started, and her products are fantastic, so I'm so glad to see her at the Shoppe! Here's one of her new releases for SSD:

Another fabulous new release at SSD this week: Hey Hey Baby by Libby Weifenbach and Amanda Heimann. Isn't this precious! It's so great for all those baby lo's, boy or girl!


Another awesome new release this week: Party On by Heather Roselli. This is going to the very TOP of my Kaboodle list! Aren't the colors and elements gorgeous? I can't wait to scrap those birthday pics with this kit!

Another of my fav's this week from SSD: Atomic Bounce from Melissa Bennett. I just love the colors and the fun, quirky elements in this kit! I can't wait to play with it and get some super-cute girly lo's done!


Another great new kit, from Franziska Altmann, is Dusk Dew, available at Sunshine Studio Scraps. Isn't it gorgeous? I can't wait to get my hands on it and play!

Stop by and pick up one (or all!) of these great kits!

And finally, if you made it this far (lol), I have a little treat for you: a 12 x 12 quickpage I made with Libby's awesome You're So Tween kit. I also pulled in some elements from several of her other kits. You can download it here. Enjoy, and I'd love to see the lo's you make with it!
