3. My favorite Whimsie Doodles image is.... WHAT?  Just ONE??  Hmmmmm, well, ONE of my Favorite FAVORITE Whimsie Doodles image is the little Smokin' Hot Grillin' Guy that reminds me all too much of my hubby (and his grill - are you seein' the FOOD theme here at all??). 

I do love the gnomie collection too though! =)

4. My favorite papercrafting technique is... I LOVE LOVE LOVE Embossing and Distressing!

5. My favorite embellishment is....  BLING, BLING, BLINGAGE!!!  =D 
Oh, Buttons & Ribbon Too!
