Creative Bloggers Hop

Good Morning. Hope you are all ok and had a lovely weekend.

Nic over at Coops Cluttered Corner asked me to take part in the CREATIVE BLOGGERS HOP which is a continuous bloghop which takes part every Monday.

  Lots of different bloggers take part and all you need to do is answer 4 easy questions.
Thank you so much to Nic for asking me.
Here are the 4 questions and my answers:
 
 
Question 1.
What am i working on at the moment.
 
A Christmas card. I'm working on a DT card, so really enjoying playing with some festive bits & bobs. Oh! and lots of glitter. lol!
 
Question 2.
How does my work differ from others in my genre.
 
I don't think my work does differ that much really. I enjoying doing what most of us do. Colouring!
I do enjoy making different shaped cards and 3d projects on my Cameo though.
 
Question 3.
Why do i create what i do.
 
I am on a few DT's, so some of my work is created for them but I create what I do because I love to play with all things papery and especially enjoy the fact that hours can just pass by whilst I'm in My Happy Place colouring and what not. I can't think of a better way to relax.
 
Question 4.
How does you creative process work.
 
After deciding what image I want to use, I usually start with the cardbase, shape etc then choose the patterned papers. I colour in the image to match my papers and then lastly I add lots of embellies to match.
 

Now i am supposed to nominate 3 fellow bloggers to pass to carry on next Monday but I have chosen just 1 and that lovely lady is: 
 

Rebecca is a very talented cardmaker, her use of colour and her eye for design is amazing.
She uses Copics to colour with and her colouring is so wonderful.
She always gives a list of colours used & she is also  Copic Certified.

Rebecca is a lovely lady and a very talented crafter too.
Thank you Rebecca for saying yes.

Thank you for visiting my blog today, please pop over and see Rebecca & Nic and leave them some love.
