I just don&#8217;t know where the time goes! Our first <strong>Designer Spotlight<\/strong> of 2023 is a relative newcomer to <span style=\"color: #ff6600\"><strong>GingerScraps<\/strong><\/span>, <span style=\"color: #0000ff\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff\" href=\"https:\/\/store.gingerscraps.net\/Lisa-Rosa-Designs\/\"><strong>Lisa Rosa Designs<\/strong><\/a><\/span>. Let&#8217;s see how our conversation went&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>J: Hmm. You don&#8217;t want to talk about the mundane stuff, I guess, so let&#8217;s not. What is your favorite kit currently in your <span style=\"color: #ff6600\"><strong>GS<\/strong><\/span> store and why?<\/p>\n<p>L: Oh, Gosh&#8230; there are so many I really love and that I&#8217;m really proud of. But if I have to pick only one, I would say it is <span style=\"color: #0000ff\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff\" href=\"https:\/\/store.gingerscraps.net\/Never-Give-Up-Bundle-by-Lisa-Rosa-Designs.html\"><strong>Never Give Up<\/strong><\/a><\/span>. I love its neutral colors&#8230; and I put a lot of me and the way I like to live in it.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/store.gingerscraps.net\/images\/P\/lisarosadesigns_nevergiveup_bundle.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p>J: It really has a shabby chic feel to it, don&#8217;t you think? What are your most favorite and least favorite colors?<\/p>\n<p>L: Green and blue are my favorites&#8230; but I&#8217;m not really the biggest fan of yellow and purple.<\/p>\n<p>J: Yeah, I don&#8217;t love yellow or orange, but do love purple! Are you more likely to dance or sing in the shower?<\/p>\n<p>L: Sing, for sure. I&#8217;m not really a dancer. But I love to sing and every shower is like a live concert!<\/p>\n<p>J: I thought that&#8217;s what you say. I seem to be the only one who dances in the shower. Maybe if more people had Bluetooth speakers in their bathrooms&#8230; If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?<\/p>\n<p>L: My self criticism. I&#8217;m usually very kind to others&#8230; but when it comes to myself, I tend to be too harsh. I&#8217;m rarely satisfied with what I do, how I do&#8230; and my own results.<\/p>\n<p>J: We really are our own worst enemies, aren&#8217;t we? Who would you want to play you in a movie of your life?<\/p>\n<p>L: Diane Lane, hahaha<\/p>\n<p>J: Oh, she&#8217;s gorgeous! You do kinda favour her. Good choice!! Do you have a green thumb? What do you grow?<\/p>\n<p>L: Well&#8230; my thumb is not really green, but I try my best. Many plants have died in my watch, but most of them have thrived. I LOVE to grow new succulents, coleus and zamioculcas and give them as gifts to people around. I&#8217;ve tried to grow herbs gardens many times without success though.<\/p>\n<p>J: I can grow lavender but kill parley EVERY time! What did you want to be when you were small?<\/p>\n<p>L: A teacher or a seamstress. I LOVED sewing little clothes for my sister&#8217;s dolls when I was small. And I LOVED playing school with them on the weekends&#8230; my sister and her dolls were the students and I would teach them everything I learned at school during the week. Her dolls were always very well dressed for classes, hahaha.<\/p>\n<p>J: I loved to create things out of nothing when I was a kid &#8211; we had pretty much nothing. I made several houses, complete with furniture, out of cardboard and fabric scraps. I learned how to sew when I was 11 and then started designing Barbie clothes. I think we would have been friends. If you had a warning label, what would yours say?<\/p>\n<p>L: Don&#8217;t touch! I hate being touched by strangers or people I don&#8217;t have a close relationship with.<\/p>\n<p>J: On, me too!!! I&#8217;m a hugger with people I know, but everybody else can just keep their mitts to themselves. If you could only eat one meal for the rest of your life, what would it be?<\/p>\n<p>L: Some salad. I love salads.<\/p>\n<p>J: I enjoy a good salad, but don&#8217;t usually take the time to make them. If time travel was possible, would you go back in time or ahead? Why?<\/p>\n<p>L: Ahead! I would love to have a peek on what didn&#8217;t happen yet and on what I probably won&#8217;t be able to see&#8230; like how a place will look like in a hundred years&#8230; or if some music I love is still played on the radio, if people still know it.<\/p>\n<p>J; Oh, I&#8217;m not sure I&#8217;d like to know what&#8217;s going to happen in the future. What if it&#8217;s something really horrible? Like another pandemic, or some extreme natural disaster&#8230; Aside from necessities, what one thing could you not go a day without?<\/p>\n<p>L: Coffee, of course!<\/p>\n<p>J: Hahahaha! I&#8217;ll refill your mug, just hold on a sec.
