OPTIONAL CHALLENGE: FONT MIX-UP CHALLENGE.....I challenge you to mix up your fonts, doodle and color and have a blast with your journaling!!! Try making the keywords of your journaling in different fonts or make a title using different fonts!!! Just have fun and remember, this part of the challenge is optional!!! :)

[Leslie]

Whew! That one looks tricky, but I like to learn one stop at a time so will have a go. I can't do fonts yet, am hoping the typing from PSE6 and an Alpha will do it. I looked at a fonts tutorial today and broke out in a sweat, so will approach it slowly and gently. Will gradually creep up to it, over time.

Bought Spring Bling last week so will start on that soon. :) LOVE the posting bonus. :)

Love the kit I was so hoping you would do a challenge with it.

[Leslie]

Here we go - Spring brings crimson rosellas (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=247594).

Pyewacket (all my cats live indoors) asks if I want fries with that.

Honestly! Rude! And very wishful thinking on her part.

P.S. And I wrote a review and did the optional font challenge.

[javamama]

I love, love, love this kit and was hoping you would do a challenge with it! Woot! :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:

Here is my LO with my favorite model. She was very tired this day and just chilling out while her friend Ashley was opening her birthday presents. I was snapping shots and she didn't know. Then she looked over at me and gave that beautiful smile of hers and it's always like the sun comes out...
