A Blog Hop with a Difference...

Hi everyone!

I was very happy and so humbled to be asked by Catie Kennedy to join her on this blog hop with a difference....I adore Catie's work....we got to know each other when we were both on the D-lish Scraps design team together last year :)

Be sure to go and check out Catie's beautiful work on her blog here :)

Getting to Know Me:

1. What am I working on right now?

Right now I am working on some upcoming DT projects that I can't share just yet!

I can share a couple of sneaks with you though...

2. How long does it take to complete a project?

Well this varies quite a lot with me, sometimes I can throw a layout together in an hour but other times it will take a week depending on my family and whats happening in our household really! Most often though, it will be 2 or 3 hours if I haven't done too much paper shuffling lol!

3. What are my favourite things to create with at the moment?

Most definitely patterned paper, it always has been and I think always will be my most favourite item! I also love to use bags/pockets, frames, mini wooden pegs and flair as well 

4.  How does my creative process work?

Well, sometimes the mojo just flows and out comes a layout that I love but other times I paper shuffle for too long and end up having to walk away and come back later lol! I usually will have a photo chosen and then I will pick papers and embellishments etc that I think will go with my photo...I lay it all down and move things around 100 times until I am happy...I then usually take a sneak peak photo and a full shot so I can follow that before I stick it all down so I know where everything was lol! 

5. How do I become inspired and stay inspired? 

I am inspired by so much all of the time!! I adore fellow scrapbookers work, Pinterest (my other addiction), magazines, billboards, clothes, colour, you name it, I will look at in an arty type way lol! I stay inspired by creating, creating and doing more creating...I find if I have an extended break any time that I really struggle with inspiration so I find I have to stick at it to keep myself inspired....oh what a shame lol!!

So there you have it, now you know a little about my creative side, its time to get to know some more very talented and gorgeous ladies who I am ever so pleased they are joining me on this blog hop and they are...
