Feature Artist - Beth

~Happy Tuesday all,

~Welcome to another feature artist, Miss Beth, she is super talented and makes the most gorgeous jewellery:

My name is Beth and I live in St. Louis, MO. I live with my boyfriend and two furbaby dogs.
I have been creating for 5 years now. I am currently on the ScrapJack and Bluemoon Design Teams.

Who is your biggest inspiration???
Kerry Lynn Yeary and Why did you start creating? I started because my mom practically has a scrap store in her house. I thought it would be something that I would enjoy. Once I started, however, the reasoning totally became deeper and therapeutic. Art has healed me in so many ways.What is your favourite thing to create? Mini albums.
What are your favourite manufacturers? Maya Road, Tim Holtz and Margie Romney-Aslett
What inspired you to start your shop, Dirty Laundry? I opened a shop when I started having more and more people requesting premade albums and accessories.
Do you create with music? If so what is your favourite creative song?
Yes! I love to listen to Jack Johnson pandora while creating. i also love watching Buffy reruns, too.
What are your 3 must-have creative items? Glimmer Mist, pretty patterned paper and Tim Holtz Distress Ink.
Have you ever created anything you've hated? no. I might not "care" for something. but, usually if a project starts turning into something that I do not like, I do it over.
You've recently started scrapping digitally, do you still enjoy getting your hands dirty??? Most definitely! I don't think I could ever give up my paper and glue! but, I do like playing with the digital elements from time to time. It is also fun to digi-scrap in the car {with my bf driving, of course} when we go on our roadtrips!

~And now on to Miss Beth's FANATASTIC giveaway: An adorable handmade headband, perfect for summer!
