Guest Designer Marit Mittag-Chwalczyk

Today we have a special German Guest Designer Marit Mittag-Chwalczyk!

Here are some pictures of her project using Fabrications!  I love the simplicity of the mini album.

We asked Marit a couple of questions to get to know her a bit better... this is what she had to say:

What is your scrapbooking style?

 I love minis and layouts with a clean, modern style but with an elegant, whimsy twist.

How did you start scrapbooking/card making?

I started in 2007 with an album as gift for my mom's 50th Birthday.  I have been on a design team since january 2009.

What influences your designs?

I love browsing through magazines and pinterest and have a crush for typography, so this is the biggest influence in my work.

How long do you spend working on a layout or card?

A layout doesn't take longer than an hour, but i prefer to make an album from start to end in one sitting so this can take a really long time, sometimes until the early morning hours:)

What does your work area look like when you are working on a project?

It looks like some of my supply baskets have exploded :). But I like to organize and clean so after the project is completed it will be nice and tidy.

What is your favorite color combination?

I love the basics, so white, kraft, black, brown or red will be in most of my layouts. From there I add more colors but nothing to loud or busy. Instead of to much colour I love to play with textures and different materials. I love brads, embossing, tags and die cuts to add accents to my pages and albums.

Do you have any other hobbies?

I love to cook, quilt and sew and blog about scrapbooking, quilting and some of may recipes on my blog www.tagfuertag.typepad.com. By the way: 'tag für tag' means 'day by day' in german.
