April 2024 Designer Spotlight - Amber Kemp-Gerstel

Q & A with Amber Kemp-Gerstel

Last, I once read an article that says creative people need to take more naps! LOL! So yeah, treat yourself to more siestas. Even if it doesn’t result in your next genius idea...at least you’ll be well-rested! 8. If you can only do one card making technique for the rest of your life, what would it be and why? Stamping! It’s easy and you don’t need a ton of supplies to get it done. You just need paper, stamps, and ink. I also prefer cards that are slim rather than bulky, so a few stamps can go a long way to achieving that. 9. How do you deal with “crafter’s block” or being stuck in a rut? I’ve learned that “crafter’s block” is always temporary. You just have to wait it out. The next idea will come. Forcing it can just make you more frustrated! Often I’ll take a trip down memory lane and look at old projects I made. Sometimes, I’ll remake the old project and eventually find myself coming up with a new idea or technique that I didn’t use the first time around. 10.What is your Altenew story? How did you first learn about Altenew, your first Altenew product, blog hop, etc? I’ve been in the crafting world for a loooong time! I remember when Altenew first popped up on the scene and I’ve been keeping an eye on them ever since!
