Some layouts!

Being sick has had some advantages... My designing mojo has been missing for a month now but for some odd reason I did have inspiration to scrap. Might be because all the challenges are back at ES and SSD. I love doing challenges! Here's some layouts I made this week:

This one's for the template challenge at Elemental Scraps:

And lastly this one I made for this week's Digi Dare #114. It was actually featured on the Gallery Standouts blog!!! I was literally SHOCKED to see my layout amongst all those amazing layouts!

But designing-wise there's light at the end of the tunnel. I'm working on some collabs right now. Monday I will have one with Angie Kovacs, and I'm working on one with Jannylynn. So stayed tuned for those!

Another FOBTY!

Your Snow Test Says You're Agreeable

You feel like something good will happen to you in the next few weeks. You don't really like to work, unless work feels like play. You only are successful when you are doing what you love. You are a cooperative, agreeable person. You enjoy the company of others, and you enjoy compromising for the good of the group. Your biggest worry in your life is your own safety. You fear death and getting hurt. When it comes time to relax, you have no problem letting go. You are already pretty relaxed as is!

New Year's Resolutions

Wow, 2008 has gone by fast! Same goes for the holidays! Unfortunately I've been sick all through the holidays. And I still am. The worst part is that I don't know what's going on. I've had tons of tests so far but they haven't given me any answers. Well I try to remember that it's a good thing the doctor's haven't found anything so far. At least I know that it's not something too serious. But this not knowing drives me crazy! I feel like throwing up all day (I'm not pregnant LOL) and all I can do is sit on the couch with my laptop and wait for the day to go by. Right now I'm really grateful to have scrapping as a hobby, cause it keeps me busy.

With the new year, come new challenges at SSD. And since I'm a true challenge junkie, I'm so excited! Today a new FOBTY was posted and we're supposed to write about our new year's resolutions. To be honest, right now I want nothing more than to feel better again. For me the new year has to be all about health. I want to find out what has me feeling so bad, resolve it and take good care of my body. Good health is the most important thing in the world! Without it everything else is impossible... Besides that I want to enjoy every minute of my life. Grow as a scrapper and designer. And maybe lose some weight LOL

What My Jack-o-Lantern says...

Another FOBTY, did I tell that I LOVE these?! LOL

What Your Jack-o-Lantern Says

You are a naturally cheerful, happy go lucky person. You're the type of person to see Halloween through the eyes of a child. This Halloween, dress up as something cute - like a bunny. The candy you should give out: candy corn

The Jack-o-Lantern Quiz

Of course I chose the cutest looking pumpkin, 'cause I love all things cute :)
