Because i love it ..i like making crafts always want to try different things which i don't have any idea of ..i have started my blog in 2013 April and learnt so many things here ..am not a card making person but after looking at many challenges around i have started making cards and am lovin it :D.. after blogging am so happy and satisfied when people like it and comment on it and also when people feel happy when  i gift a card or handmade gift ..  :)

3.How do I Become inspired or stay inspired ?
I am inspired by many things ..mostly am inspired by my blogger friends works and new techniques they share .. and stay always inspired by the challenges they come up with great sketches and themes..they inspire me so much :) and color inspiration is from color palettes when am confused with colors i will refer color palettes by Divya  she has lovely color palettes..:)

4.How does your writing /creating process work ? 
Its not always same because i try different things As am inspired by the challenges themes  when i see the challenge  many  idea strike my mind and  start gathering the supplies n  implement on one of it .. sometimes i will alter some tiny things and finish the project :) sometimes i finish the project with out any idea i will just go on adding things untill i like it :)

 I mostly make crafts at night time ..For CAS cards it take 20  mins and some take  30 mins
 for the recycling projects,altered projects it takes 1-2 days depending on my mood some times i finish them in 1 day ..
for jewelry it takes 1-2 days ,for art journals it take 2-3 hrs with breaks in middle :) and am slow at quilling it takes much time  to quill a 3d Doll it takes 3 hrs.. :)

 i mess up every time i make crafts and additional time to clean it up when i finish the project ;) i always think next time i will not mess up things but it happens always :) its become a habit :D (bad habit)..

i don't know actually ..i like to try new things and experiment on it..from any medium  i want to try and get better out of it something unique.. but mostly i like to work with m-seal (epoxy clay) and now a days am concentrating on stamping and techniques..:)
