Hi Tracy! I know you're also an incredible scrapper as well as a designer. Do you always have YOUR scrapping style in mind as you design? How has being a scrapper effected how you design?

 

[clarabear]

Do you scrap with your own designs?? What is your favorite page you've scrapped? Favorite kit you've created??

 

[geek_girl]

Kate..
aww ty! lol
I tend to start a kit with the bits I like and use the best, (usually flowers and paints... I cant get enough of them!!!) then when Im 100% think... now what would everyone else need lol.

 

[geek_girl]

Clara..
Oh yes I always make 5 pages with a kit before I think about selling it, I like to make sure it has all the bits it needs, and works cohesively. My fav page is always the last one I made lol, and as for fav kit thats a real hard one, at this stage Id say tho my Summer Collection. I love how it came out, and its a colour combo I drool over

 

[Cynthia]
