June Designer Spotlight: Tinci Designs

Omigosh, it just occurred to me that I haven’t posted the Designer Spotlight get-to-know-you post for this month and it’s almost over! Better late than never, am I right? So let’s get to know the lovely Krisztina, the creative mind behind Tinci Designs. I asked her the following questions…

J: How long have you been designing?

K: I made my first template pack during the spring of 2011. There was a short period, while I was making kits too, but then I realised, that my true passion is the creation of templates.

J: What is your design process?

K: I draw inspiration from different galleries and from Pinterest. Sometimes I spend days thinking about what kind of template to make. When I got a bright idea, I finish my work quickly. I have a fantastic team, they make amazing inspirational pages.

J: What motivates and inspires you as a designer?

K: I really enjoy making digital scrapbook pages. Since a few years I’ve been making photo albums from pictures of our family, vacations and important events. I often favor myself with making such templates, that will fit into my next photo album. Then I look forward to how others use my templates with their personal style.

 

J: What do you use to create your designs? (software, add-ons etc)

K: I am working with Photoshop CS6.

J: Describe your design workspace.

K: I have a PC desk, just a simple place in our dining room.

J: Do you craft outside of the digital world?

K: Not

J: What kit currently available in your GingerScraps store is your favourite, and why?

K: My favorite product at this moment is Favorite Minutes 1. template pack. I like this pack, because this well illustrates my style.

J: What’s your favourite thing about GingerScraps?

K: Since I started designing, I’ve sold my products in several stores. More than one year ago I came accross Gingerscraps store, and I found a home here. I really like working here as a designer and as a member of the store own creative team. Everybody is very kind, the place has a homely atmosphere. As soon as anyone needs help, someone will come and help. It is the best place!

J: Tea or coffee?

K: Tea

J: What was the last book you read?

K: I’m reading one of the newest novel of a Hungarian author, Búzavirág from Janka Fábián. It is a fictional story about the life of a Hungarian actress starting from the 1900s, who made it to Hollywood and became a famous actress.

J: Do you have a guilty pleasure?

K: My addiction is Nutella and salted peanut. Maybe I was a squirell in my previous life?

J: If time travel were possible, where would you go and why?

K: If I had a time machine, I would travel to a paralel universe, where fairies, kobolds, mages and other magical creatures live. Or to a future where there is peace, and robots makes our life a lot easier. I’m always a dreamer.

J: If you could have any super power, what would it be?

K: If I could have a super power, I’d choose to be able to get to anywhere in an instant. I want to visit a lot of places in the world.

Thank you for giving us a peek into your life, Krisztina!
