Est. Today

How has school been since you won the contest?
My friends were all really excited. A lot of them voted for me so they were happy that I won.

How does it feel to see you picture on websites and magazine editorials?
I thought it was cool because it could be anybody, but it was me! It made me feel really proud to win.

What were your inspiration(s) for the new design set?
My inspiration was from ruffles, ballerinas and peaceful old fashioned graphics. I wanted a flowy, girly look. It's also about following your dreams and sticking with it.

Did you get any input from your friends or family?
I showed my mom and she thought that the images were all really cool.

Did it take you very long to figure out what images you wanted to use for your design set?
No not really, it's just a matter of looking through pictures and finding things that caught your eye. It didn't take that long, I found an image and I knew what I wanted.

Has the contest win made you feel one step closer to your dreams of becoming a designer?
Yes, it has, I don't think that some people understand how much this will get me one step closer. If even one person sees anything about the contest or my designs then that could change my life.
