Caardvarks "Lovefest - Anniversary"

Caardvarks are continuing their Lovefest this week with the theme of Anniversary, http://caardvarks.blogspot.com/ and as QKD http://katstamps.com/shop/ is sponsoring I though I use my lastest QKD stamps these gorgeous Doodled birds. Ive embossed with Heat it up Enchanted gold and used a strip of Cuttlebug Embossing "script" highlighted with Pearl ex pigment powder in pale gold. There's some odd things going on out there, from what your hair say's about you to this daft one!!!!!!
You Are a Colon
You are very orderly and fact driven. You aren't concerned much with theories or dreams... only what's true or untrue. You are brilliant and incredibly learned. Anything you know is well researched. You like to make lists and sort through things step by step. You aren't subject to whim or emotions. Your friends see you as a constant source of knowledge and advice. (But they are a little sick of you being right all of the time!) You excel in: Leadership positions You get along best with: The Semi-Colon
What Punctuation Mark Are You?
