About Kimberly Morgan

I am a full-time wife and mother of 5 who feels lost without a book to read and a creative project to work on. I love color and appreciate clean design with plenty of white space.

I did read through it, I didn't see anything about the photos. So, what types of photos should I use in the samples? I can't use stock or personal, the photos used are from shoots I have done with others. Thanks for all the help!

Hi Kim, I'm a little confused by the comment you left me. If you could clarify what you mean that would be great. All of the photos in my samples are from my personal collection. THANKS!

Kim, thank you so much for your help on my "Wreath and Ribbon" design. It means a lot to me that a designer I admire would take the time to comment. I just read that you are a mother of five- WOW! And I thought I had no time- now I know better. :)

Hi Kimberly... I do hope you don't mind me asking you this question, but you were so kind to help me before, and I need someone to ask. What actually counts as a vote - people liking your design or people rating your design?

Hi Kimberly, thanks so much for the helpful comment you left for me. As a newbie it's good to know there are nice folks out there willing to help :) What do you advise? Should I just leave the clanger mistake up there and note that I've seen it or change it and loose my comments and likes? What would you do?

Thanks for your vote of confidence in my design, Kim! There were lots of great designs so I guess we'll have to what until the end of summer to see which ones were actually selected. I guess I can't be too upset if my design wasn't selected since I can use it for my own shop (if it's not selected for the minibook challenge either). :o)

Thanks for your sweet note, Kim! I wasn't contacted by Minted for my "Peace Pieces" design for the holiday card challenge so based on some information in the forum (that Minted would be making all their design requests by the end of this week), I assumed that it wasn't picked and free to reuse for the current challenge. But I'm glad to hear that you liked the design. Hopefully, it gets picked up for the minibook challenge. :o)

Thanks for the tip, Kim- sadly I didn't catch it until it was too late to fix :( Hopefully lots of other people have been singing it wrong for years as well- ha! You have some great entries this challenge- your 'Trimmed Wreath' is just gorgeous- best of luck :)

Hey again! Thank YOU for the great compliments! I hope you can go to a mintie meet up some time, because it was encouraging to talk to the other designers and hear how much they have grown since participating in Minted challenges. Trust me, my first few designs are stinkers!! You have a great style and it is showing that you are hitting your stride : ) Just keep trusting your design instincts!

Hi Kim, no problem! I think you expressed yourself really well - probably much better than I could! My guess is that people are hesitant to say anything unless they are from one of those cultures. I know what you are saying though, I sometimes wonder what people think of my forum posts too! I'm trying to design a Diwali card and am having the same fears as you! I'm guessing that in most cultures, there will be some who prefer a traditional theme, and others who are open to a more modern interpretation. So for a Lunar New Year card, some may prefer Chinese characters, but others may be fine with the English phrase, particularly if they live in the US. Oh boy, sorry for this long post! I hope this makes sense. All the best to you! Jessica

I think you're going to be happy with the outcome of this challenge. Your designs have really come a long way!!! I'd be really surprised if they aren't chosen. Early congrats!
