About Dreaming Inspirations

I have always been creative since I was little, helping my mom make crafts to sell to make money for our family. I've grown to love all aspects of working with my hands to create beautiful things.

Minted Feb 10, 2011

You're so sweet, Stephaine - thank you for your nice comment on my Love Light design. I have to thank Stacey for the suggestion of a pink "love" and Kerri for her critique of my heart shape. :) Best of luck to you!

Monica Schafer on Dec 05 2012

Minted Oct 25, 2010

Hey Stephaine, Totally know how you feel. As your portfolio grows its going to be so fun to see all your beautiful designs displayed together. You have a unique, very cute and fun style. LOVE the designs you have for sale. Thanks for the sweet compliment too :).

Hi Stephaine! Thank you so much for the beautiful holiday card! I love the pearl paper! It's been great getting to know you through MInted! Hope you're doing well! Have a great weekend! :)

Kim Dietrich Elam on Nov 23 2012

Minted Feb 10, 2011

Hey, Stephaine! Just wanted to say thank you for the lovely Christmas card I received in the mail today. Love that pearl paper!

Laura Condouris on Oct 09 2012

Minted Sep 20, 2009

This has nothing to do with designs, but I just wanted to say that your new profile pic is so pretty!

Heather Francisco on Sep 27 2012

Minted Sep 6, 2011

Hi Stephanie! thank you so much for you comments on my "and love" I have made a few more versions and would love some input if you get a chance :) thanks!

Kim Dietrich Elam on Sep 15 2012

Minted Feb 10, 2011

sorry, I butchered your name below, Stephaine! where is that edit button???

Kim Dietrich Elam on Sep 15 2012

Minted Feb 10, 2011

Hi, Staephaine - thanks for your sweet comment on my Tangram Heart. It made my day! :)

Kim Dietrich Elam on Jul 15 2012

Minted Feb 10, 2011

LOL - you don't even have to do it, Stephaine! It was my one big idea for teh day yesterday, and I thought I should pass it along to someone who knows how to draw popcorn well! ;) I just wanted to make sure I passed on all the ideas I had for you to consider. No disappointment here! :)

Kim Dietrich Elam on Jul 14 2012

Minted Feb 10, 2011

and, know that I have thought about it more...the "pop" wording may be a little over-the-top. Your design might be more classic without it...

Kim Dietrich Elam on Jul 14 2012

Minted Feb 10, 2011

Hope you can get one in - I think it would look cool to have a couple of those strands going across the invitation. Good luck! :)

Melissa Egan of Pistols on Jul 12 2012

Minted Nov 7, 2011

Hey! The company I work for was about to get really busy with a holiday order and I am the only designer, so my boss told me to be prepared with names of designers who might be able to help. So, currently we aren't very busy, but there will def. be future projects where I'll need to find some help :)

Nam Bourassa on Jun 13 2012

Minted Dec 9, 2008

Thanks Stephanie! I'm so glad you made the changes and I know keep trying everytime.

Lori James on Jun 07 2012

Congrats on all your recent wins, Stephanie!! I meant to leave a note when you got your first 2 - sooooo happy for you!!! :)

Hi Stephanie! Thanks so much for your feedback on my forest friends design. I made some changes... let me know what you think if you get minute please!! Thank you! :)

Jennifer Thomke on May 06 2012

Minted Sep 1, 2010

Ugh, so delayed (my computer was down for the last 3 weeks!!! ahhh) but I wanted to say give you a HUGE, CONGRATS!!!!! on your wins. It was the first thing I checked on once I was back online!! haha. You must be thrilled. I'm so happy for you!!

Stacey Meacham on Apr 29 2012

Minted Sep 3, 2011

Thanks Stephanie for your comments on my laurel wreath thank you. I made some changes, can you let me know what you think now if you get a change. Much appreciated and huge congrats on not 1 but 2 editor's pics.

Melanie Severin on Apr 26 2012

"hope" not "hop" (Easter on the brain?)

Kim Dietrich Elam on Mar 30 2012

Minted Feb 10, 2011

One more thing...I really hop you get a pick with the next announcements, but don't get too down if you don't get a win with the birthday invitations. I know how it is to have a well "liked" design and not get a pick - it's so much more disappointing because you are really thinking you've got it! You've got some nice designs entered in the baby shower challenge, too, so keep it up! :) Fingers still crossed for ya!

Kim Dietrich Elam on Mar 30 2012

Minted Feb 10, 2011

Thanks for your nice comment, Stephanie - I really appreciate it! Still waiting to hear on those birthday invitations - fingers crossed for you! :)

Kim Dietrich Elam on Mar 27 2012

Minted Feb 10, 2011

Hey, Stephanie - no problem! I really appreciate you letting me know! People are something, aren't they?

Kim Dietrich Elam on Mar 27 2012

Minted Feb 10, 2011

Hi, Stephanie! Thanks for your note - I appreciate the heads-up! I'll be honest, I did not search the web for ampersand designs before I submitted (because that would have been overwhelming!), and I'm rarely on Etsy, so I have no way of knowing (that I can tell from looking at the listing) when hers went for sale. I think they are different enough, though - I mean everyone uses ampersands in wedding-related designs, it's obvious they are the same font ampersand, but it's cropped/formatted differently and doesn't have the names in the middle. I'm not a copyright expert, but I'm thinking this one may be okay...I really appreciate you looking out for me and giving me notice! Thanks a bunch!

Jennifer Thomke on Feb 09 2012

Minted Sep 1, 2010

Lovin' The Cold, Buttermilk Blessings, Whistling Cardinal, Golden Treasure all have such BEAUTIFUL illustrations. I would re-purpose them to use in the stationary challenge. Oh, and Wishing Hearts....that is one of my favorites!! Congrats on the new job too! Very exciting.

Kerri Spath on Feb 05 2012

Minted Jul 28, 2010

You are so very welcome. Your designs have evolved so much, I admire your perseverance. Your diary of jane invite was very deserving of a 5 in my eyes and I am sure that I am not the only one! I am super anxious and hopeful for you to get your first win! Keep up the good work!

Jennifer Wick on Jan 28 2012

Minted Sep 2, 2010

Hey Stephanie, thank you so much for the wonderful compliments! I meant to write to you earlier when you wrote the sweet comment on my The big one design. That just made my day! I see so much growth in your designs, and I really, really hope one of them wins soon : ) Thanks for being such an encouraging Mintie! I really value your comments : )

Kim Dietrich Elam on Jan 24 2012

Minted Feb 10, 2011

"she" not "ahe"

Kim Dietrich Elam on Jan 24 2012

Minted Feb 10, 2011

I hope you get a win with that ballerina - she was made for this birthday challenge (ahe just didn't know it at the time!). Good luck!

2birdstone on Jan 18 2012

Minted Dec 28, 2008

Hey Stephanie! Can you send me an email so I can respond fully to your note? I don't really want to put it all on your profile. :) 2birdstone@gmail.com

Kim Dietrich Elam on Dec 20 2011

Minted Feb 10, 2011

Hey, Stephanie - thanks for your suggestions on "Save Me." I've seen designers submit photo and non-photo versions of a design before - I think the photo is a big enough difference. I think they just don't want two versions of the same design in different colors/fonts. Good luck!

Smeeta Sharma on Dec 09 2011

Minted Oct 28, 2010

Stephanie, regardless of scores (although you had a number of high rankings!!) I think you have some amazing work!

Kim Dietrich Elam on Dec 09 2011

Minted Feb 10, 2011

Stephanie - congrats on all your high scores in the wedding challenge! I don't know if you scrolled through all the entries in ranked order, but I did - and at least 3 or your entries ranked very high and were surrounded by other greatness, as well. Nothing to be discouraged about. Keep at it - your work is great!

Minted Jun 9, 2011

Big props to already voting thru wedding already Stephanie!! Making it along vote by vote, I find you an inspiration :) Also so happy to see there are other minties who find it worthwhile to check out as many of them as they can. Even though not everyone can vote on all 1600+, it's a bummer to think after everyone's hard work if any were edited out, so people don't get stressed out if they can't vote on every one. And in the time we debate and edit, we could be voting, ha ha! :) Thanks again!

Bleu Collar Paperie on Oct 15 2011

Minted Dec 10, 2010

Hi Stephanie! Thanks for your super kind comments! I especially loved that you likened my banners to canoes on my "In the Woods" Head Over Heels challenge design - I never even thought of that! You have a great eye and your submissions for this challenge are so good - keep up the great work! :)

Kim Dietrich Elam on Oct 15 2011

Minted Feb 10, 2011

I try! :-)

Snow and Ivy on Oct 05 2011

Minted Mar 7, 2010

Hey Stephanie!! I get excited whenever I see a designer from Michigan - I grew up in Auburn Hills and I miss MI a lot! So, go Michigan :) I love seeing your designs transform through the course of a challenge - looking forward to seeing many more of your designs!

Lori James on Oct 03 2011

Minted May 6, 2008

Thanks to you, too! You're so sweet! :)

Ana Gonzalez on Oct 03 2011

Hi! Thanks for your feedback. Do you know if the submission files can only be used in photoshop or can they be used in InDesign as well? Thanks!

Minted Sep 1, 2011

thanks so much for your feedback! I really appreciate it- I was contemplating the size of the bubble already and thinking of ways to edit...thanks again! I love your portfolio! Amazing work! :)
