Here we are in November already. 2020 has, in so many ways, definitely been an annus horribilus, to steal from the Queen. Hopefully there are better days ahead!
I’d like to introduce you all to Christina, the creative genius behind Wimpychompers. (I just wish I would have thought to ask her how she came up with that name… I’m sure there’s a story there!) She’s in the Designer Spotlight this month and has gifted all of us with a fabulous Daily Download. Make sure you’re picking up your pieces while they’re available.
J: How long have you been designing?
C: I want to say 10 or 11 years
J: What made you decide to design?
C: I got really interested in making signatures in forums actually. I started messing around with Paint Shop Pro (ha) and ended up writing tutorials for signature making. I swore I would never start digital scrapbooking as I did paper scrapping at the time but soon changed my mind. Once I started figuring out the program I switched to digital, then decided I loved designing.
J: What do you use to create your designs (program, additional tools, etc.)?
C: Mostly Photoshop but I have recently gotten my hands on Procreate so we will see if I add my own drawings to my items
J: Describe your design workplace.
C: My couch. (laughs). I sit on the couch with a lap desk, it’s the most comfortable and especially helpful now that my kids are doing school from home and have taken all of our desks.
J: What motivates and inspires you as a designer?
C: I love looking at colors on Pinterest but mostly I am theme driven. I especially love to do kits I know I could use.
J: What is your favorite kit currently in your GS store and why?
C: Can I say all of them? (ha). I would say the entire When I Grow Up series, it’s not technically one kit but that one took a lot of time and makes me smile, each kit being so different.
J: If you could only eat one meal for the rest of your life, what would it be?
C: Ooh, dangerous. Cinnamon rolls probably although my waistline may not appreciate that one
J: What is your favorite game or sport to watch and play?
C: I don’t watch sports but I love playing Lego video games with my kids, it can be therapeutic to smash everything in the game.
J: What did you want to be when you were small?
C: A children’s book author, a teacher, and a ballerina
J: Aside from necessities, what one thing could you not go a day without?
C: Hugs from my kids, they are teens so it’s not as often anymore and I take them when I can!
J: Who would you want to play you in a movie of your life?
C: I’ve never considered this one. Maybe someone like Kristin Bell
J: If you had a warning label, what would yours say?
C: Caution: Can go off on a tangent with no warning!
J: What celebrity would you like to meet at Starbucks for a cup of coffee?
C: Maybe Reese Witherspoon
Before we say thanks and see ya to Christina, I think I should tell you that she’s put everything in her store on sale at 30% off for the WHOLE MONTH of November!! That’s really generous, and I bet it boosts her sales pretty nicely, just in time for Black Friday and Christmas. I’m going to check it out right now!
Welcome to November. For those of us ending Daylight Savings Time, did you remember to reset your clocks? I remember a time when we actually had to manually set the clocks. Now it seems everything automatically resets for us.
