Our wonderful sponsor for today's challenge is
We would like to say "THANKS" to Andrea from Sheep Ski Designs
for kindly supplying all the digital stamps used on the DT cards.
Here's a bit about me and my shop...
Andrea Norris, unknown artist - Living in Leeds, Yorkshire
in the UK, working full time as a Management Accountant and currently working
on 4 design teams. I'm a dancer (Argentine Tango and Ceroc) and a
competitive badminton player. It's amazing that I've managed to squeeze
drawing into my schedule as well as being an obsessive crafter and creator of
cards. I have no actual style as yet but do love the unusual and quirky.
I may be known for producing cards in soft pastel colours. I love anything arty. I've always drawn stuff, for
as long as I can remember. In my younger days I sold a few watercolour
paintings. I recently found mixed media which is a joy and love creating
canvases with flowers. I've had a battle with digital drawing for about a year
and finally found some software I can gel with in January 2016. Recently
one of the challenge teams I worked on was short of a designer's images to
create with so I drew some. Then people kept asking me for my drawings.
So I thought what the heck let's open a shop and give something back to
the crafting world, to the lovely ladies who have supported me on my journey. Welcome to my world, we're only at the beginning and I
have so much more to offer. Andrea x
