Hi all, I'm very glad to be taking part in this 'Getting to Know me Blog hop'. I was tagged by my lovely friend and fellow blogger, Sarah George of
Blessing Art Ideas. Thank you so much Sarah. Here I go with the information.

First, a little bit about me. I am a software engineer by profession and was working in one of the big ones in Bangalore. I quit my job when we moved to the US early this year. So right now, I'm a SAHM for my 9 month old daughter :) I get to craft when she's sleeping :)
I enjoy making cards, crochet, making jewelry and making flowers. I started blogging when I discovered an Itsy Bitsy contest and wanted to take part in it. From then on, there was no turning back.

1. What am I working on?
I'm currently working on a Scrapbook/Baby book for my daughter. I've been planning on this for a long, but was just scared to do it. Finally I've picked up all I can and I'm trying to jump right into it. I hate to admit that I haven't even completed 1 page :) Hopefully I'll share it pretty soon and that would be my first attempt at scrapbooking. I'm also working on a congratulations card for a couple who had a baby last week. I will share the baby card soon.

2. How does my work differ from others of its genre?
I believe everyone's work is unique in it's own way. I try to reduce the use of store-bought embellishments and enjoy making embellishments like flowers. Of late, I love CAS more than any other style! I'm still an amateur in stamping. I am looking forward to buying a die cutting machine in the near future. So, as of now, my works are no where near the experienced, seasoned crafters. I'm still an amateur in most of the aspects.
3. Why do I write/create what I do?

It gives me a sense of satisfaction when I see what I have created is beautiful. And when I read the comments on my blog, I'm literally flying!! If I win sone contest, I'm on cloud nine :) It just makes me forget all my worries and tiredness.
4. How does your writing/creating process work?
I'm mostly inspired by some contest theme or a blog post from a fellow blogger. Sometimes I see something in Pinterest and want to do something like it. Sometimes I just get a wild idea while trying to sleep at night :) At times, when I try to create something that I had in mind, it just doesn't turn out as expected. When it does, nothing can make me more happy!! Below 2 pics are examples of that.
