What other hobbies do you have besides designing and scrapping? I like to read, cook and knit.
How did you get started designing and scrapping? I got sick of the mess of paper crafting. It felt like it would take a week to make a page and then a week to fully clean up. I love that I can take my hobby any where with absolutely no clean up!
How long have you been designing? about 8 months
Which programs do you use to design? PS CS4 and Illustrator (kinda, still learning the ropes)

How did you pick your design name? Not really sure, hubs helped me out though!
Who are your favorite three designers? Gingerscraps(really I adored the organic feel of her kits before I made the CT), Piggyscraps (she is very unique and I love it), Vicki A Work in Progress

What is your favorite kit that you have designed? Probably Garage Band King, although it’s a tough choice!

How do you get started on a kit? Palette first? Rough idea on what you want your papers or elements to look like? Rough Idea first. I have the HARDEST time picking colors!
How long does it typically take you to make a kit? A week or two. Mainly because I don’t work non stop. And I usually do more than one at a time.
If you could change one thing about yourself what would it be? I wish I was taller. I am a mere 5’2. I’d love to be about 5’6. Or be buff 🙂
What is the one word that best describes you? well, it depends on my mood. Nice or Sassy

What do you like doing with your family? We love being out side. We go hiking on the weekends.Where is your favorite place to be? Snuggled up on the couch in PJ’s with either my hubby, baby or lap top!
Edward or Jacob? Please. Edward! Would Jen have let me write other wise!!! (I totally would have, but I also would have mocked your decision. 😉 )
CU or do it your self? 75% ish is me. I try not to use too much CU freebies because everyone has them, but some CU stuff is just too cute!
