     Jazzi M: Ahh, I knew that was bound to happen! I even reminded myself this morning to get the year right…and then screwed up. At least I managed to get the day correct. Haha.

   HA! I love that Gordon Black in the Top Fonts of 2011, its so inspirational, I may print out the PDF for my inspiration wall! I also like Ethical under the People’s choice but not as much as Gordon Black!!!

   Thanks for the inspiration again!!

   One of my New Year’s resolution is to do a 30 day Photography Challenge, and just take photos for the first month of the year! Along with crafting…I need to do more crafting .
