MariJ Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 This week, we want to celebrate our designers, so we’ve asked each of them five short questions to help you get to know them a little better. But wait! What’s a celebration without prizes? After you “meet” our designer below, head on over and browse through her store and pick your favorite collection or item. Then come back to this thread and post a link to the item or the product preview (while on the product page, right-click and choose "copy image" to save the image). Tell us what you would scrap with the item or what you love about it. On Wednesday 6/28 ET we will come back to this thread and choose one lucky person who will win the item of their choice from DRB Design's store! But, first - get to know Darryl, otherwise known as DRB Designs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MariJ Posted June 27, 2017 Author Share Posted June 27, 2017 DRB Designs How long have you been designing?I learned how to use Photoshop when I returned to school seeking a career in graphic design in 1998. Back then, I worked full time for our city’s newspaper and started digi-scrapping on the side. Today, I just digi-scrap and design T-shirts. (Lucky me!) What is your favorite item to design?Word art! I've always loved combining photos and words, but often struggle to journal on my own layouts. I wonder if others have the same problem. I hope by creating word art, it helps to get some words on the page. Where do you get your inspiration?Color is what really ties my collections together, but just about anything can inspire me. Often, I think about what kinds of photos people might want to make a layout about and go from there. If you could visit one place, where would it be?I would love to go to London during Victorian times and see what it was really like. But then I'd want to come back home to my air conditioning and WiFi. If you could be a superhero, what would your superpower be? If I were a superhero, my superpower would have to be flying. I dream about flying all the time. I bet it would be awesome! Nice to meet you, Darryl! Now, head on over to DRB Design's Store to find your favorite product. Don't forget to come back to this thread and follow the directions in the first post above! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-M Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 This was very difficult decision as there are way way too many nice products in DRB Designs store. But this one caught my eye to use for my bird photos that I am always taking: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheri T Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Too many favorite designs to choose from, but this is a recent fav of mine for the text paper rose and the gorgeous alpha. I'm also thinking of printing the large floral print and framing it as-is in a room in my house! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRS Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 So interesting to hear that you like to create Word Art, Darryl...I struggle with it when I try to make my own. So much easier to use your creations, lol! I love paper templates, so I would chose these: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florida granny Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 It was so much fun to go through DRB's store! I could pick lots of favorites but settled on the Distressed Floral Overlays because they would be perfect for so many pages. Now I look forward to Set Two.

It started with the blue anenome flowers and grew from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
