I was tagged by Amanda so if you care to read a bit more about me...
Stamping style - simple. Always!
Inspiration - my stamps. When I make a card, I pick the stamp that I want to work with and then just start grabbing supplies as the inspiration comes to me. My inspiration for color comes when I'm standing in front of all my A Muse papers and then I just seem to *know* which colors I'm going to use. This probably sounds pretty hoaky but its the way I work.
color - blue - the color of the sweaters we recently wore at CHA is pretty close to my perfect shade of blue.
work space - messy!
perfect day - hanging out at the cottage with my family on a sunny day... swimming, picnic on the dock, canoeing, sailing, cocktails, a bbq dinner, and a bonfire with roasted marshmallows...
first job - piano teacher
wildest dream - I like to live in the here and now. It's a pretty wild ride *every* day so I don't have an immediate answer on this.
ink - VersaFine Onyx black. I love it because this pad is always ready (no re-inking in over 3 years!), it's a fabulous BLACK, dries quickly and I have no problems using it with my COPIC markers. Have you noticed that I tend to mostly stamp in black and then color?
For color, I *love* Clearsnap Fluid Chalk cateyes. Fun, fun colors - especially
- lime pastel
- tangerine
- yellow citrus
- chestnut roan
- creamy brown
- orchid pastel
- ice blue
family - 3 delightful girls and an amazing husband
beverage - diet coke. I would love to stop drinking diet coke, but water just doesn't taste as good! No really, I am trying hard to limit my intake because I'm pretty sure it's not a health drink. <wink!>
biggest challenge - balance. No need to expand on this one... I'm sure you all feel it too!
I believe I'm supposed to tag some other folks now. If you haven't been tagged yet, please consider yourself tagged! And, I am "officially" tagging all the lovely ladies that are A-MUSE-A-PALOOZA Ambassador alumnis. This group of gals worked really hard to earn the tile of AP 2007 Ambassador...
Thanks for the tag Linda!! This was one I actually got done in time LOL!! :o)

I'm so glad you played along! I really enjoyed reading all of your answers & now I'm going to have to try my VersaFine with my Copics. I think I've used just about all of my other black inks besides that one...thanks for the tip!
