Lots to mention today including a Spotlight over at the Paper Crafter's Library, 2 Give Aways, the June Customer Creation Challenge Winner and July Sales... Here goes!
Paper Crafter's Library Spotlight
The wonderful people over at the Paper Crafter's Library have put together a lovely Spotlight for me. So thankful and proud to be up there!
If you haven't come across them online yet I highly suggest visiting. Lots of beautiful projects, new companies, video tutorials and inspiration of all kinds.
Here's a link: http://blog.papercrafterslibrary.com
A Photo Tutorial
To celebrate today's spotlight I wanted to do something special. I sat down at my art table and ended up with two cards and a photo tutorial. Outside it was a sunny summer day which definitely influenced the theme. I combined my Hibiscus and Raindrop stamps and this is the result... Summer rain...
The full photo tutorial and material list for these cards is on the Paper Crafter's Library blog HERE.
Give Away
I'm also offering a Give Away both on the Paper Crafter's Library blog and on mine. Please feel free to participate in both! I am offering my Hibiscus unmounted stamp sheet on their blog (see below). Please visit them to qualify for this prize. Details on their blog HERE.

Love the stencil. Have been following you for a while. Nice to have a talented Canadian nearby. Loved the story on PCL.
ReplyDeleteHi Ryn...besides loving your name...I especially love your designs! I fell in love with those 'oh so real' looking waterdrops. Can't recall where or what art work someone was using them in, but they mentioned your name and I searched for you and your designs! I love the drops! So glad I found you and signed up for your blog. Very nice art pieces! :)
