Happy Friday scrappers!\u00a0 There’s a ton going on this weekend for Digital Scrapbooking Day, and I’m so excited to bring you our newest Featured Designer, Amanda Yi<\/strong><\/a>.\u00a0 If you look through her store you’ll see it is so much fun.\u00a0 Her doodles add so much versatility to her kits, and the color palettes and themes are perfect for scrapping any occasion.\u00a0 I also love all of her feltboards – I can relate to so many of the sayings, funny or otherwise.\u00a0 Not only does she design all of this, but she has super fun fonts and Commercial Use items too.\u00a0 Make sure to check out her store and see all she has to offer!<\/p>\n

Before we get to know more about Amanda you have to check out her Featured Designer kit, Find Me in Fall.<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0 This kit is perfect timing as Fall has definitely arrived here in Alberta and I’m all about the falling leaves and autumn colors.\u00a0 This kit is yours FREE with any $10 purchase until October 20th.\u00a0 Click on the preview to be taken to the Shoppe to check it out!<\/p>\n

Amanda also created an Extras pack that is so packed full with awesome doodled wordart, paint, extra papers and cards – you’re not going to be able to resist this to complete the full collection!<\/p>\n

Before I show you the amazing things the SugarBabes have done with this kit, let’s find out more about Amanda.<\/p>\n

Tell us about your journey with digital scrapbooking\u2026 How did you find out about it? Did you start with paper first? How did you get started designing? Where was your first shop? How and when did you end up at Sweet Shoppe Designs?<\/strong><\/p>\n

It all started off with a pregnancy lol. That pregnancy turned into a need-to-capture-all-the-moments kind of thing which ultimately resulted in me finding my love for scrapbooking. However, when I discovered digital scrapbooking I discovered a whole new creative outlet. I began with joining creative teams and getting such amazing mentoring advice from some of the greatest digi scrapbook designers that I now to this day call them my friends! This year is 10 years designing and I still see the changes and how much I\u2019ve grown since I started designing and I believe being at Sweet Shoppe made that possible!<\/p>\n

 <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

How do you stay motivated or deal with the loss of mojo? <\/strong><\/p>\n

Music is a big help! But when I am in a funk and need inspiration to get the juices flowing again I of course take to Pinterest to see what catches my eye and what’s trending.<\/p>\n

 <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

How long does it take you to put a collection together from start to finish?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I used to knock a whole kit out in a day typically but now It does take more time since my products and bundles have gotten a little bigger. It\u2019s okay because the more time put in means more goodies for you guys to enjoy!<\/p>\n

 <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Do you use your own art in your kits? Show us some of your favorite original illustrations. <\/strong><\/p>\n

I do illustrate a lot of my own designs for my products. Here are some recent ones that stole my heart\u2026<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What\u2019s the last really great book you read or tv show you watched?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I am now a diehard Supernatural fan LOL<\/p>\n

 <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

When you were a child, what did you want to be when you grew up?<\/strong><\/p>\n

A teacher and a Veterinarian. I always wanted to help animals, and I just loved structure and organization and routines (hence wanting to be a teacher too)!<\/p>\n

 <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And now for some inspiration from the SugarBabes using Amanda’s Featured Designer kit Find Me In Fall<\/strong>.\u00a0 Seriously they have done amazing things with this kit and show how versatile it is.<\/p>\n
