Today's interview is going to be a little bit different than the one's I've done in the past. Emily from Lynde Avenue contacted me a few weeks ago, asking for an interview - and I happily agreed. Read on to learn more about her. :)

What are the best types of design clients?
Ones who return emails quickly and are very flexible. My turnaround time for designs is pretty fast, so it's awesome to get feedback as soon as possible! I also like clients who are flexible, because sometimes there are just certain elements that I can't create or don't know how to, and I love bloggers who are super understanding about that sort of thing.What's your designing pet peeve?
Hm...I'm not too fond of designing with the color blue, but I suppose that's more personal preference than pet peeve :P I'm going to have to say, when my graphics don't download properly *shudders*Where do you draw inspiration?
Inspiration is everywhere! Some of the questions I ask on my design form is for a color theme and a mood, possibly even a link to a photo. Based on the vibe I get from those it's pretty easy to move forward from there!Have you ever had a design where you just don't know what to create for someone?
It's happened to me a couple of times...my advice for that is to create the header first. Once your header is on point, the entire design is basically done ;)What are some of your must-have resources when creating a design?
I love PicMonkey for creating graphics, Pinterest for inspiration, and Photobucket for hosting images! I'd like to add Photoshop to that list in the near future, but since my designs are free and I haven't got a job I'm broke at the moment :P// Visit her blog.
