I don't think there are five things that bother me. I prefer not to get bothered about things. It makes life so much easier. Oh. It bothers me when I tell the kids to clean up their messes, and they say they do, but then they don't. Oh man, does that ever bother me. Oh, and I have Lyme Disease. That bothers me too, but hopefully it will go away, and then I'll just be left with kids not listening to me.

What is your Misty's favorite product?
Tweet! Tweet! for sure. It's 5 O'Clock Somewhere used to be my absolute favourite kit, but then Tweet! Tweet! came along... Oh, but I forgot about FortWilderness. Hmm. I have two favourites. :D Maybe three. ;)

Take a look at Jane's favorite pages.

Camping Girl, kit is Fort Wilderness by Misty.

Let Me Help, kit is Fort Wilderness by Misty.

Some Things Never Change, kit is Tweet! Tweet! by Misty.

Waiting, superficiality, people that think to be better than you just cause they look better in a fancy dress, people that judge you without knowing you and rain.

Here is her favorite layout she made with Fort Wilderness by Misty O'Brien. She loves this layout because it was the first time she blended a photo. She really did a great job with that blending, don't you think?
