It's a whole new OLD me!

I decided to get a new cut which in reality is an old cut. After wearing long hair past my shoulders for my childhood and teens, I did the grand chop at 21, rocking short hair a la Halle Berry or Toni Braxton.

Been a busy bee

Here at Collective Elements, I'm always working behind the scenes even if I don't post. Trying to line up some events for the fall holiday season. So far I've applied to Charm City Mafia's Holiday Heap and the Bust Craftacular along with some smaller local events.

And working on a big SECRET project that should be available October 1st. **cross your fingers, kiddies**

For now be sure to check us out on the Spreetail Shopping Guide.

That's one hungry frog!!!!

In this photo released by the Utah Dept. of Wildlife Resources on Thursday, Sept. 20, 2007, an American bullfrog is held near Roosevelt, Utah, on June 29, 2007. The bullfrogs are known as voracious eaters. They will eat snakes, worms, insects, fish, frogs and salamanders. Small birds and mammals could be at risk, too.
