Opinions Wanted

OK, I did my first set of papers and I also did one element this weekend. I'd been playing around with doing papers for quite some time and have done a few just for the fun of it. But this one I went for broke - I created matching solids and patterns. I really like them, well except for the paper with the multicolor flourishes - I'm not too fond of that one. I also created a little car element to go with it; maybe I'll create more elements, I don't know.
I did use for the papers commercial-use overlays by Amanda Rockwell to give them more texture, but the patterns are all me. I also used the gel effect from Atomic Cupcake on the car element.




At any rate, I would love anyone's opinion on these - what can I do to improve? Which papers aren't so great in your opinion and which are good? Would you buy these (not that I'm selling these). I'm of course looking for constructive criticism. Thanks!

Fridge Test

We are now doing a quiz at the Sweet Shoppe to see what our fridge says about us...



What Your Fridge Says About You



You like to be surrounded by things you love. You aren't exactly greedy, but you can be materialistic at times.



You are a very thrifty person. You don't like to waste money... or food.



You don't tend to be a very adventurous person, but you do surprise everyone now and then. You have a bit of a wild side.



You try to be responsible, but you don't always succeed. Your heart is in the right place though.



You are likely to be married - and very busy.



It's pretty accurate, I'd say...

Nerd Alert!!! I am Uber Cool Nerd Queen!

OMG! OK, so the FOBTY this week is Nerdiness score. I'd like to think of myself as somewhat of a nerd, not a complete and an utter nerd. Boy was I wrong! Per the test, I am a SUPREME NERD! Was it because I knew the scientists pictured or my periodic table or the fact that I took upper level college mathematics? Or is it because I know my IP address or think that "researcher" sounds like a neat job? Who knows. But, wow, I'm REALLY a nerd. Good thing they don't have a spazz test - I'd totally rock that one, lol.

I guess that's why I love watching "Revenge of the Nerds" over and over again. I get it, totally. And Gilbert was cute! Maybe I should get a life... nah, I like the one I've got. A lot of people went to school with must have been nerds too. My Dad certainly was - I know he would have known those scientists and his periodic table; he always got great grades (much better than mine), and he was Mensa material (I've tested well on those Mensa tests too).

Oh so I go back to the test and take the level 2 test to find out what kind of nerd I am. Here goes....
