Meet N Greet Tuesday with Tina Hale

Hello PMS'ers! :) It's tuesday so it's time for another Meet N Greet! This week we're "meeting" design team member, Tina Hale! I've met Tina in person, and she's just the sweetest thing since sliced bread! And she either thinks i'm pretty funny, or she just knows ow to make a gal feel good. hahaha.

Here's the same 6...

I reckon!

When did you start stamping?
I started stamping about two years ago. Like many of you it was a Stampin' Up! party and I immediately became addicted. I have always been crafty however, dabbling in several hobbies before finding my passion fro stamping.


What first drew you to Paper Makeup Stamps?
Oh my gosh, the fairies! I will never forget when I saw them; I went straight to the store and ordered every single one. I love them all and they seem to get better and better each month. I'm so excited when we get to see the first peeks of them. And of course, Katie. She's so sweet. I had long been a fan of hers and knew I'd help support her in any way I could.


What is your favorite color combo?
I am really drawn to vibrant colors with a pop of black. I'm not sure I have a favorite combo, but I am loving the pinks these days.


What Else do you like to do?
I am a shopper, love everything about it. Of course, I am a bargain shopper and am thrilled when I don't have to pay full price for something I want. I also like to read although I don't find much time to enjoy as much as I'd like. And, then there's my family. I try to spend as much time as possible with them.


Where do you get your inspiration?
There are so many sources of inspriation- blogs, Splitcoast Stampers. I am a fan of sketches, so I will often participate in those types of challenges. I also browse home & garden magazines for color and/ or pattern combinations. It's all around me too, I live in the mountains and sometimes just walking outside inspires.


What's on your ipod?
I don't have an Ipod, can you believe it?! I do love music, but find it distracting. I mostly listen to Top40 on the way to and from work. But I like, Motown, hip hop, top 40, disco, 80's, as well as some classical music. I will listen to most music except for country music, don't care for it even a little biit.

And i have to include this... because it's just keys you in on how sweet this gal is... When she sent me her answers, this is what she told me!
If you knew how badly I hated to talk about myself...you wouldn't have asked me to do this!!

hahahaha.

Onto some FABBY creations by Miss. Tina!









Now go to Tina's blog and leave her some love!
