I’m so excited to tell you about Kristi W, SUN’s newest designer! You may have have already seen her fabulous designs going up in the shop and if not, you can take a closer look by clicking here to visit her store. Aren’t they super?!?!?!

Kristi was kind enough to answer a few questions I had so that we could all get to know a little more about her:

1. Tell me a little bit about yourself.

I am 34 years old. I am married to a wonderful man. Our Anniversary is the 25th of April. We will be married for 7 years. I have a daughter Haylie Lorraine, She is 13 years old. I also have 2 grown step children and 2 step grandchildren.

2. How long have you been designing?

I have been designing for a year and a half.

3. Where do you get your inspiration?

I get my inspiration from looking in Scrap book Magazines, My Family and sometimes when I am out shopping something will catch my eye.

4. Do you have a favorite color combination or item that you love to work with?

I tend to work with more pastel colors and colors that are girly girl. I am trying to design with darker colors as well as we know that there are tons of people out there that have boys too. I have recently fell in love with Miss Tiina’s Vectors I just love those!

5. What is your favorite thing about designing?

My favorite thing about designing is meeting new people, Friendships and letting my creativity flow.

6. Do you have a blog?

I created one which I am still working on but it is www.kristiwdesigns.blogspot.com.

7. What was the most interesting trip you have ever taken?

My most interesting trip I have ever taken was to San Antonio Texas. It is such a beautiful City, they have so much to do and see.

8. What is something that not a lot of people know about you but you wish more people could know?

I am very shy until I get to know you. Once I get to know you and we become friends you cannot shut me up. I would do anything for anyone.

9. If a movie was made about your life, who would you want to play your part?

If there was a movie made about me I would want Alicia Silverstone to play me as I am always told how much I resemble her

10. What would I find in your refrigerator right now?

Not a whole lot, I am a clean freak so if it is in there longer then a few days it ends up in the trash. Also its time to go grocery shopping again.

And speaking of new, check out the latest batch of  goodies to hit the shop!
