    I am enjoying getting to know all of the designers. I had to laugh when I read Leah’s coloring/ethnicity comment. I remember the first time I realized that someone blond was Spanish. I love all of the pocket cards in the Domesticated collection since I’m a Project Lifer.

    I pretty much love everything about Mommyish’s designs. Love her Real Life in Pockets collaborations with Just Jaimee. Gobbled up all of her summer designs this year. My wishlist is still a mile long!!

    I love so many of Leah’s kits…but her actions/styles are what I really love. As for kits, ones I’ve been eyeing would be Always Crisp or Just Pickin’.

    I was designing websites back in the days of AOL dial-up, too! I was a little older than you, but not by much…17. 🙂 I have to say that Leah is, hands-down, my favorite designer. Her styles are the BEST! Her Real Life Candid kit has been on my wish list. I love the sassy, fun happiness in this collection.

    I wish I could play the piano like that! Nice. I love Mommyish’s styles and my favorite Mommyish kit is Hipster Holiday. It’s fun and I love the color scheme. Btw, I followed Mommyish over here!

    I love Mommyish’s styles too, so easy to use and transform anything, but I especially love creating alphas from fonts with them.
