MG: Your style is very magical and whimsical? Where do you find your inspiration?

Tainted Sweets: Most of my inspiration comes from media. I’m a really big kid at heart so I love watching cartoons. playing video games, and reading comics. Music also inspires me a lot; sometimes when you hear a song it can give you an idea or even help set the mood. I am also a fan of Japanese influenced art. I’m sure you can see it in some of my sets.

MG: What is your favorite set for sale here at MyGrafico by Tainted Sweets?

Tainted Sweets: My favorite set would have to be A Dogs Day. I’m a huge animal person, so I really enjoyed making the set and all the cute little accessories for the puppy. I am definitely looking forward to making more animal sets.

MG: What are your favorite things to do?

Tainted Sweets: I love to make all sorts of art. Painting, drawing, sculpture; I mean you name it.  If I am not hooked on a video game I am usually sewing some plushies or making little ceramic sculptures. Oh, I love dressing up!  I go to conventions and always try to dress up as my favorite characters. It doesn’t need to be Halloween to dress up and have fun!

MG: What is next for you?

Tainted Sweets: I’m not to sure where life will take me. My goal is definitely to inspire people. I have planned to focus on illustrating cute sets (so I will definitely  be here on MyGrafico for a while.  I love this place) and creating cute stuffed toys. It is definitely a change of pace from the art I normally do. Whatever I end up doing, it will sure be an adventure. I have started a blog, so if anyone wants to follow along and share, learn, and teach they are more than welcome.http://taintedsweets.wordpress.com /

Thank you so much to Stephanie for her time and all of the great sets available HERE.  Check out some adorable cards she made below with two of her sets.

There’s something about the sweet and candy themed designs that I just LOOOOVE!! I always seem to be drawn to them.  A friend of mine is having a birthday next weekend, so I wanted to create a girly, sweet card for her!  You can’t go wrong with pink and brown too, its a great color combo!

The cupcake for the card I used this SUGAR BUZZ SET I wanted to use a clipart image instead of a stamp for this card, just to give it a more chic, clean modern look.   

For the paper I used The Sweet Stack paper from JoAnns.  At MyGrafico we have quite a few sweet treat themed clipart that would coordinate with this paper VERY WELL!!

I also used a scallop punch with the card example from JoAnns as well.  Border punches make your cards look great to give it that extra accent!
