I have some great kit finds today. The Gotta Pixel - Gotta Grab It series of kits are fantastic! Although they are no longer available as Gotta Grab It, they are still available in the store. Check out these fantastic colors!
Painted Alpha by She’s Full Of Scrap!, Glitter Swirls Elements Pack by Sarah Meyer, Jill’s Bag #1 by Jill D-Zines, Fibers, Frames & More! by Sarah Meyer, Borderline - Floralie by Cherie Shields, i : love to : Swirl - Paper by Cherie Shields, and Neon Retro - Paper by Cherie Shields. There are many more that go with these kits but these are just the ones that caught my eye.
Border seem to be a popular element, especially clustered, or layered borders. Here are a few I really like…
It’s All Jeans: Layered Corners by Kim De Smet look like jean pockets, crammed full of scrapbooking goodies 
I can see them being used for teen girl pages.
I also found several borders by Misty Cato. I really like the Fabric Curls - Neutral and they are also available in Rainbow. They are great for adding grunge and texture to layouts. The Neutral colors would be great for all my boy pages!
What I like most about Crunch Time Templates 3, by Micheline Martin, is that you can make them any color and that they have layers so you can customize them. It is in both PSP and PSD format so more people will be able to use these great crumpled edges!

Is it bad when your 2 year old son is smarter than you? Liam was laying out his alphabet tiles in order (from right to left). He had them done up to “P”. I then told him he needed “R” next. He told me “No, Q!” I then realize he was right. Later I was trying to get him to spell his name. Which he did and while I was exclaiming over it he then said “B-R-E-A-D Bread!” I taught him that a week ago and he still remembers it! He can just be “too” smart sometimes.
So my 2 year old son can say his alphabet and can count up to 19 but he still doesn’t call me “mama”, instead he calls me “baba”. I guess he thinks I am a sheep since that is also what he calls sheep.
