Here is what Kristy had to say...

Some Odd Girl is the place to find fun and quirky digis that I know you will love! Some Odd Girl was inspired by two great friends who are such dolls! They took one of my pencil drawings and made it into red rubber and that act of generosity spiraled into what you see today.

I am a married FTWM of 2 who has a hubby who not only loves me but supports my crafting and my site as my IT guy. What more could a girl want? I am an artist born who started out with pencils then acrylics and now scrapbook and am a cardmaker. I design things that I love and hope you have as much fun with our stamps as we do! 

 Join us on September 21 for the release of our new Tinies line and don't forget about our monthly freebies and SOG Points program. Our Challenge Blog has bi-weekly fun that hopefully will help inspire you to use your digis!

The prize up for grabs this week is...

FOUR images of the winners choice.

As always the winner will be chosen using Random.org
