Personality Series: Strengths and Weaknesses.

Last week I mentioned that I was going to start up a little personality series based on my ISTJ Jung personality test results. As you can see below, this weeks topic is 'Strengths and Weaknesses'. I collated this information from a tonne of different websites and forgot to reference them so I've just reworded a few things.. anyway, enjoy!

My strengths:

I honor my commitments,

Take my role in a relationship very seriously,

Am an excellent communicator,

Can be extremely good with money,

Handle constructive criticism well,

Am not afraid to dole out punishment or criticism when necessary.

My weaknesses:

I tend to believe that I am always right,

Have a habit of getting involved in "win-lose" conversations,

Am not always in-tune with what others are feeling,

My need for structure may seem rigid to others,

Have an excessive love of food and drink,

Lack an interest in other people or in relating to them,

Show occasional inappropriate emotional displays,

Have a tendency to be selfish,

Tend to dismiss other's opinions and perspectives before really understanding them,

Have an "it's my way or the highway" sort of attitude.

So what are your strengths and weaknesses?

It's my Birthday! + Thankful Tuesdays.

Yep, that's right.. today is my 23rd Birthday! Another year older, another year wiser, another year closer to making babies! :P Haha.. In all seriousness though, it really doesn't bother me that I am getting older. It will probably bother me once I turn 30, but for now I'm just happy to be one year closer to achieving all of the dreams I have for my future. :)

More Custom Blog Designs!

Hey guys,

I finished up another custom blog design this past week and thought that I would share it with all of you. I created this design for Katie from Katers Potaters and boy was this a fun task to complete. :)

When Katie first contacted me she told me that she was hoping for chevron stripes, owls and lots and lots of yellow and navy blue. Katie wasn't too fussed with how these elements would be positioned, so I was free to get creative. I instantly decided that I would be using an owl in the header, and that the owl would be sitting on a wide branch with the words 'Katers Potaters' sitting along beside it. As I still haven't saved up enough for the Bamboo Pen and Touch tablet that I have aiming for (I'm not too far off now though, I just need a few more design jobs) I decided to the draw the owl and the branch by hand and scan the drawing into the computer so that I could enhance the image with Photoshop. I must say that I was impressed with the end result. The way in which I coloured the owl in just seems to resemble water colours.. or at least I think it does. :)
