FOBTY 10/24

OK, So I'm a bit behind on the FOBTY at SSD, so I just did all of them in one day. :)

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

FOBTY 10/9

Here's my "ice cream test." I don't think I agree that I have a "wild reputation." :)

Your Ice Cream Personality:

You are an incredibly modest person. You don't feel comfortable bragging about yourself... or even receiving complements. You have a wild reputation, but you're not as wild as you seem. You take risks, but only measured risks. You are a fairly open minded person with a wide range of tastes. You are quite accepting of unusual ideas and people. You are a natural multitasker. You feel alive when you're doing more than one thing at a time. You are a serious and contemplative person. You definitely do your own thing in life.

FOBTY 10/2

For the FOBTY this time, we're supposed to say our favorite fast food place. In Germany, there's only McDonald's & Burger King with drive-ins, but there's also Turkish restaurants with Kebaps and Pizza or Chinese restaurants that you can get take-out. Everything else is sit-down restaurants. So, my choices here are limited. :) But, in Arizona, my fav fast food is Subway. Yum!

Fun new favs

I found a couple new kits that I'm really loving, so I wanted to share. First is a Thanksgiving kit from Libby, Shawna, and Melissa. It's really cute, but the layout I did with it actually isn't even about actual Thanksgiving. I love the colors in it and the elements are really cute. It's a great fall-ish kit. Here's my layout with it:

Next up is a kit by Zoe Pearn. I love her designs, but she mostly does really girly kits. So, when does a boy (or neutral) kit, I always snag it! :) Her newest kit is a winter one, but I did a baby boy layout with it. I just love this kit! It's very soft and has lots of fun things in it. Here's the kit:

And here's the layout I did with it:

This Saturday is "Digital Scrapbooking Day" (Devin laughs about that, a total made up holiday, but I love any excuse for a sale!) and there are rumors about a sale at SSD, which is really rare! It'll be a great time to pick up these kits! ;)

Want a guest CT spot with Libby?

Libby's having a fun contest to give away 2 guest spots for 1 month. You'll get all her product that month! You can read more about it here. I hope to see some familiar pics in there! ;)

Cori Gammon kits on Sale (today only)

Scrap Artist's Fab Friday sale is today, and two of Cori Gammon's kits are only $1 each! You have to click on the Fab Friday link to get those prices. There's also some cute string! I love Cori's style. That "High Fidelity" kit is screaming Kevin's name. :)

Scrapbook Pictures

Scrapbook Pictures (an online printing service) is having a sale, so I wanted to tell you about it! Their 8x8s are $1.49 instead of $1.99 until Oct. 15. On the SSD forum, lots of people have had great things to say about this company (I've actually not heard of anyone who didn't like them!), so I decided to try them out when they're having a sale.

You really can't beat My Pictales on prices, but a few of my pages weren't great quality. Most were good, but on a few, the photos were really grainy or blurry. So I choose a few of them that I wanted to compare and ordered a few with Scrapbook Pictures. They have a flat rate $2 shipping, and you also don't have to resize your layouts, so that's really easy. I was able to upload and order my prints fairly quickly.

If you log into their website through "two peas in a bucket", you can get a credit of about $3.50. You have to be logged into the 2peas webpage, then you go to their digital page, then scroll all the way down to the bottom where it talks about printing services. That will ensure that you get the credit. You can also just go straight to their website without the credit.

My dad will bring out my order when he comes in 2 weeks, so I'll have to let you know what I think about the quality!
