    I got to learn a bit more about Elif and what makes her tick in a Q&A:
    1. Tell us a little about yourself.

    Hi, I am Elif. 28-year old self taught graphic designer. The simplicity of digital scrapooking and my passion for designing made me start a professional career in digital scrapbook industry. Aside from scrapbooking I love binge watching Japanese anime. When I’m not designing or scrapbooking, I love knitting, and flipping through a good book with hot black tea (with lemon) in my hand.

    2. How do you come up with your colour palette or theme for your kits?

    I have a Pinterest board that I pin color inspirations now and then. After I define my theme for the collection and come up with a few keywords for it, I go to this board and start collecting images that would represent the theme. Then I pick colors off of the moodboard that I design out of these images.

    As for coming up with a theme, I love collecting ideas from my followers and customers. Recently I've made a survey to get some future product theme ideas. That's my main source right now and you can still submit your theme requests here:)

    3. What are your go to snacks or music while designing?

    I love eating fruits while I design. Especially green apple. Although I love complete silence when I design, if I find some good music that complements the theme of the collection I'm working on I listen to it. Otherwise I get distracted easily.

    4. Show us a couple of your favourite kits.

    My favorite kits.. That's a little though to choose because each time I design a new kit it becomes my new favorite for a while :giggle But here are a few that almost always bring sunshine to my soul whenever I look at them or use them on my pages :)
