I'm an Amber Ink Torchbearer!

I'm so excited to tell you the news, For the month of October I will be the purple torchbearer for AmberInk!!!

I have been an admirer of Lucianna at Dilsaver Designs for some time now. She is a super talented lady who makes the most creative cards, so I was really honored when she passed the AmberInk torch to me! She's a hard act to follow, but I will give it my best.

AmberInk has lots of fun digital stamps and ipaper for your crafting pleasure! You really should hop on over and check out all their wonderful stuff!


I will be joined by four other talented ladies who have also been passed an AmberInk torch:
Sara Gough of Thinking Stamps
Susanna Sirviö of Susan Korttiapaja
Kristin Robbins of Happy Everything
Michelle Single of Caffeine & Stamps
Check out AmberInks blog for more info on all of us (including some baby pics)

And on Monday pop back here and at the other gals blogs for our first torchbearer projects showcasing AmberInks wonderful digital line!!!
