Where do you call home?
I live in a small mountain town in British Columbia, Canada.
When did you join Sweet Shoppe Designs & what’s your favorite thing about being a member of the team?
I joined the sweet shoppe as a designer at the end of 2007 but was a member from the start! I love everything about being on the team but I think most of all I love the friendships that have been made.
How long have you been designing?
I found digital scrapbooking when oldest was a baby and when stores started opening up I started designing in 2004.
What inspires you?
Everything inspires me! Colors, quotes, a theme.. once I find something I want to work with I usually am fairly inspired! Sometimes the inspiration and putting together my inspiration is my favourite part of doing the kit.
Tell us a little bit about your design process…
My design process unfortunately lacks focus. If I could get a handle on that everything would be so much better! I almost always start with an idea of what I want the kit to be about/theme. I then start with colors. I always design my papers first and then the elements. I also do my preview as I design. Every time I do a kit it seems as though I have a bit of a mental design block when I’m at the elements stage.
