I am very excited to welcome Sylvie of sausan Designs here with us this month!  I first got to work Sylvie a few years ago when we worked on a couple of projects together.  I have always thought she was a very sweet person AND a fantastic designer!  Sylvie has a very unique, fun, whimsical style that easily recognized!  Here is a closer look at her contribution to THE DIGI FILES:

Here’s what she said: I covered the Ritz Camera print box (the one you get when you develop 4×6 prints) to create a diorama. The girl stamp on the right is from the Cornish Heritage Farms.

Try to haunt for great elements and papers from “old” kits in your stash at least once a month. I am sure you will find treasures!

I have never been a paper scrapper or scrapbooker at all. In Germany Scrapbooking is almost unknown. What brought me to designing was this creative streak in me, although I didn’t see myself as a designer, especially not a digital scrapbook designer. I’ve always been a creative person and comfortable with my PC. I love to draw, enjoy making music, and I was once a singer in a band and was studying fine arts before changing my direction to languages.  I can say that I simply “stumbled” over digital scrapbooking and was hooked right away! Shortly after I was offered a home to sell my own designs and this is how it all started!

Inspiration lies in everything for me. It can be websites, colors and patterns of all kind, my kid’s clothes, flowers or just a song !

Pens, Brushes, Watercolors, acrylics and … Photoshop. I am working with a Windows PC and 4 gigs of RAM. I use Photoshop CS, sometimes PS Elements. My camera is a Nikon D 50 DSLR. I am using  a Wacom Tablet for doodling and drawing.

    Okay, you all make this very difficult for me…I am a total grunge lover, so I would have to pick some to go with kits of hers I already own, LOL!!!!
    I would need Ghoolie Juice to go with Ooglie Googlie, and maybe Love Bird and Valentino Valentini…..it is just to difficult!!!! Thank you so much for the chance, and always love my Digi files kits each month!
