Micheline Martin was in one of the very first issues of The Digi Files over two and a half years ago and I’m so excited to welcome her back! My team LOVED Micheline’s contribution this month and had so much fun creating with it! Micheline’s fun, shabby, modern style is so fun to work with and the theming in “Geek Chic” resonated with each of us! Let’s take a closer look at “Geek Chic” that is included in The Digi Files this month:

My Name is Micheline Martin. I was born and raised in North Bay, Ontario, Canada where I am still living and raising my children alongside my amazing husband of 8 years, Mystaya who is 8 and Logan who is 6. I currently run a in-home daycare and have been for 6 years now. I also design in my free time. I am honored to have been asked to participate in the digi files.

It all started for me 6 weeks after my son was born, I was in a “mommy forum” online and we would make sig tags with pictures of our children in them. I found myself wanting to know how to make the items that were used in the tags and really haven’t looked back since 🙂 Actually what suprises most people is that I do not scrap, I haven’t scrapped in gosh I don’t even know how long, I’ve only made a total of like 10 layouts. I always found scrapping so much harder then designing.
Everything around me inspires me, magazines, my children’s clothes/books/toys, tv, pretty much anything and everything.
Computer: I use a dell inspiron 1545 and have 4GB of RAM.
Software: My Must have is PSP9 (I am self tought and have never upgraded lol) and PSE 8.
Camera: My iphone4 🙁 my camera is broken and I am saving up for a Canon.
Anything Else: I use a Wacom Tablet, but rarely ever use it.
Try not to design in the wee hours in the morning always use “fresh” eyes. When staying up until the wee hours in the morning to finish that kit, make sure to ALWAYS double check your work after a good nights sleep, I don’t know how many times I have been half asleep and accidentally saved a png as a jpg or forgot to save the paper that took me hours to do.
