Free Weekly Kit and Featured Designer: FranB Designs

We would love to welcome FranB Designs as this week's Featured Designer! Layout out from House Blues Where do you call home? I currently live in central Indiana with my hubby and son.  I grew up on the north side of Chicago and lived there until I met my hubby in an online video game in the late 1990s.  We killed monsters together! How long have you been designing? I have been selling my designs since November 2011. Have you ever met a celebrity or famous person? In the early 1990s I attended a taping of the Oprah show.  I even got up to speak!  After the show we all got in a single file line and got to meet & speak with Oprah and shake hands.  It was all small talk but I remember thinking she was a lot shorter than I imagined.  I've also met some Cubs players.  Andre Dawson's aunt lived in the same condo my mom did, so I would see him in the elevator occasionally.  He was taller than I had imagined. ;) What is your favorite book? I love to read books!  I just got off a really long slump so I am excited that I have been reading a lot the last couple months!  I even finished a book I started 2 years ago!  But my favorite...I would probably have to say the Harry Potter series.  I just love the magic of the stories. Do you collect anything? I started collecting Disney figurines and snow globes in the 1990s (surprising how many times I've mentioned that decade).  I took a break when my son was born and now that he's grown up I have started collecting again.  I have no idea why I stopped when he was born, it just sort of happened...changed priorities I guess.  But now I hope to have many more figurines added to my collection.  I have also added Wizarding World Fantastic Beasts to my collection. To finish off we would love to share some of FranB Designs' favorite layouts:   Layout out from Mix & Match 4 Peace Layout out from Rhode Island Layout out from Road Trip Layout out from 100 Acre Honey Bear Layout out from Dino-Mite How do you get even more bang for your buck?
