I totally forgot to mention that I'm working on a new blog, as this one is driving me bananas. It's almost done, just a few tweaks to sort out. Will post the link here soon.

Who? Me?

You Are An INFP
The Idealist

You are creative with a great imagination, living in your own inner world.
Open minded and accepting, you strive for harmony in your important relationships.
It takes a long time for people to get to know you. You are hesitant to let people get close.
But once you care for someone, you do everything you can to help them grow and develop.

In love, you tend to have high (and often unrealistic) standards.
You are very sensitive. You tend to have intense feelings.

At work, you need to do something that expresses your personal values.
You would make an excellent writer, psychologist, or artist.

How you see yourself: Unselfish, empathetic, and spiritual

When other people don't get you, they see you as: Unrealistic, naive, and weak

Time for FIESTA!

It's party time!! ScrapArtist is having a Fiesta this weekend - should be lots of fun:

Hodge Podge

Ok, it's official, I'm a bad blogger. But who cares when I have awesome news to tell?!

Firstly, I've been so fortunate as to become a member of the amazingly talented CT at ScrapArtist. Actually, I'm still not quite believing this, but they tell me it is all true.

Secondly, I was asked by Emily Powers of Two Sisters Designs to be a guest for this week's Hodge Podge challenge. Do check out all the amazing layouts HERE! And here's the layout I did:
