Q&A Responses:
How long have you been a Silhouette user?
I’ve been a Silhouette user for 8 months.
How would you describe yourself as an artist? What’s your creative style?
My style is relatable and girly—fun, modern, and full of personality! I love creating designs that feel fresh, playful, and perfect for personalizing everyday moments.
Tell us about your artistic career. How did you get your start?
I’ve always been drawn to creativity, but my journey really began when I started selling personalized items made with my cutting machine. That’s when I discovered my love for designing cut files—not just for myself, but for others who love crafting as much as I do! It quickly grew into something bigger, and now I get to share my designs with the creative community.
When did you start designing files for the Silhouette Design Store?
I started designing for the Silhouette Design Store in April 2024.
What is the design you’re proudest of?
My “You Are a Cherry on Top” design! I originally created it for myself, but when I shared it on social media, the response was incredible. It gave me so much confidence as an artist and showed me that my designs could really resonate with others.
Where do you find creative inspiration?
Pinterest, trends, and talking with my friends! I love seeing what’s popular, bouncing ideas off people, and turning everyday conversations into creative designs.
How do you overcome creative blocks?
Brain dumps are my go-to! I write down every idea, no matter how small, and revisit old sketches or concepts. It’s a great reminder that inspiration doesn’t always have to come from something new—sometimes, your best ideas are already there, waiting to be rediscovered.
What’s your favorite thing about what you do?
Creating for my friends and family! I love helping them bring their ideas to life with personalized designs. Seeing their excitement when they use my files makes it all so rewarding.
What advice do you have for artists just starting out?
Share everything—you never know what’s going to resonate with someone! Some of my most popular designs are ones that took me two seconds to make and almost didn’t share. Don’t overthink it, just put your work out there and let people connect with it in their own way.
