Our Mask It Challenge sponsor was Nathy from Cinnamon Designs.
Her short bio: I’m Nathy and I am a 36 year old nurse. I love in Mons, Belgium with my boyfriend and my furbabies. I am addicted to digital scrapbooking and have been scraping for two years before I started designing. I love to swim. I love movies and I’m totally addicted. I love to cook and dress a beautiful table for the people I love.
Is Nathy short for something?
Yes, Nathy is short for Nathalie, my grandmother and family always called me like this, so I always keep it.
What is your favorite meal to make?
Salad!!!!!I love love to experiment with salads, my favorite one is with goat cheese and a honey dressing yummy!!!
Belgium is a mix French, Dutch and German. What is your primary language and culture?
My native language is French and I am Catholic.
Your bio states you are a nurse. Do you have a specialty?
I was formed as a nurse, worked in hospital but stopped for a while due health problems; I'm planning on going back to work, but more to individual’s home helping, or nursery.
Going back? How will you fit it all in?
I will start again real soon, I guess I need to get more organized and find the time to do both.
Congratulations on your big move. How did this come about? How do you feel being among the A5D team?
This is a wonderful opportunity for me as I love this store and many of the designers who are selling there, I’m a big fan! Amy Hutchinson is a fantastic designer, a wonderfully sweet person and made me feel so welcome!
How did you get started in designing?
While browsing the scrap stores, I really wanted to do this, designing; I started offering little freebies on my blog from time to time.
Do you remember who the first designer was you bought from? What designer inspired(s) you to design?
Nathalie Braxton, I am a big fan!!!
I guess Nathalie Braxton inspired me to design as well!!
Were you a paper scrapper before you started digi? Do you work any hybrid projects?
No, I never paper scrapped, but I’m planning to start really soon, I’m really getting inspired by all the gorgeous projects I see.
When you scrap what are your top 3 must haves?
mmmh let's see...I love a good crafty or grungy plain background,
flourish, scattered embellishments and brushes.
Now for my choices!
Being a coffee lover I really like this kit Sweet and Warm. I also think the neutral tones with the pops of red are really great.
And a few of her layouts that caught my eye...I think a few of them have actually been in our FP!
