In turn, they select 3 Bloggers that have been a source of inspiration to them<\/div>\n
and that they would like to showcase and feature.<\/div>\n

What Am I Working On At The Moment?<\/b><\/div>\n
I just finished working on 2 ATCs for my friend Lisa (YT: Maggie2005cupcake). Unless I am working on a specific challenges to support good causes or crafty friends, I am usually thinking about my next GDT project for Diemond Dies\u00a0or what I will draw for my next free digi (released every week on Thursday or Friday).<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
How Does My Work Differ From Others In My Genre?\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n
I think my work differs in that I don’t limit myself to one style. I love everything from CAS to Steampunk and everything in between. This way I never get bored and I can always stretch myself to try new things. \u00a0Also\u00a0I like to add whimsy or humor to my projects when I can; see\u00a0one of my favorite cartoons from a T-Shirt I saw in Duck, NC at the top, my “Butterfly Dreams” ATC (which is in the following post), and my recent card share for K-9 Dog Robot<\/a>.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n
Why Do I Write\/Craft What I Do?\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n
I craft what I do because I love it. It keeps me mentally engaged and lowers my stress at the same time. Plus I get a hit of endorphin (I am an endorphin junky) every time I finish a project. It’s the same rush that I get every time I scratch off something on my “to do” list. Sometimes I even write something on my “to do” list after I’ve done something just so I can scratch it off! LOL<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n
How Does My Creative Process Work?\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n
Usually I have a general idea that I want to try to create. \u00a0I am sometimes inspired by other folks’ creations, but usually I am motivated by just the challenge theme or the person for whom I am creating something. Ideas will come to me just before I fall asleep, while I’m preparing my dogs’ meals, or even when I’m driving somewhere. Then I usually try to start creating that thing that has popped into my mind, and it morphs as I go. The final result is rarely what I think it will be when I start, but usually it is better. \ud83d\ude42<\/div>\n

Do you have questions of your own for me? If you leave them in the comments, I’ll try to answer each one.<\/div>\n
Thanks for stopping by! WOOF<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
