Anything Goes Challenge No. 98

Hiya, blogging peeps! :) Thank you for coming back to join my DT and me for another week of anything goes! Our fantabulous sponsor is The Cutting Café!
I'd quickly like to touch base on our new rule we put into place last week about limiting entries to three per participant. My Dream Team and I batted this around a bit after receiving so many positive remarks about the change! We love that about our fellow crafting peeps! lol
We're going to try this for a couple of months and see how it works out. I cannot figure out an easy way to monitor participants and, well, we know there are people who don't read the rules or completely disregard them. So we've decided to leave it as unlimited entries; HOWEVER, my Dream Team and I will be unable to leave a comment on each and every entry. Instead, each DT member will make her own call about how many entries from the same participant they will be leaving comments. We WILL look at all of them because, after all, we do chose DT favorites and it would only be fair... and in my world... things are fair. :) So, we'll have another look at this before the end of the year and see if it's working or needs some tweaking. :) Please bear with us. xx
On a personal note, I want to thank everyone for their patience with ME. Last week was really rough for me. My family and I had been living for a long time with the knowledge we'd be losing a loved one but that did not make it easier to deal with. I was a bit out of whack from that and a bad knee injury so I was pretty much useless to EVERYONE in my inner circle. Thank you to those of you who've offered kind words. It means to world to me that there were so many of you who sent me private emails to comfort my family and me during our time of grieving. I made a concentrated effort to reply to each personal email but if I missed you, please know I was touched by your kindness. xx
So with all that said, let's get this linky party started! :)

Anything Goes Challenge No. 72

Welcome bloggers! My Team and I are so happy to have you join us once again for another fun, fun week of anything goes here at Inspiration Destination! This week, we have Inky Impressions offering 3 digis to one lucky winner and The Cutting Cafe with three sets for a second lucky winner!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
INKY IMPRESSIONS
We are a family owned art rubber stamp company that has been in business since June of 2009. We are located in the United States in Northeastern, Ohio. We are proud to say that all of our rubber stamps are made right here in the U.S.A. We are dedicated to providing crafters around the world with some of the cutest rubber and digital stamp designs.
When Inky Impressions originally opened our doors in 2009, we only offered rubber stamps. However, after a few years and many requests from our customers, we opted to offer some of our designs in digital format. All digital stamp images are sent out at 300 DPI. Opting for digital images allows you more freedom to play with image. You can resize it, flip it and print it in any color you choose.
As for our rubber stamps, each and every stamp made is “extra deep etched” on quality red rubber for a crisp impression every time! All Inky Impressions rubber stamps are sold with EZ mount cling and come to you on a laminated 4” by 6” color card. This color card allows the customer to have a coloring reference when using the image.
Inky Impressions offers many girl and boy characters, however, our main characters are LiLi, Angelica, Nicholas and Christopher. These characters are cartoon drawings of our children.
I would like to share with you the story of how Inky Impressions was born. When I first started crafting, I would typically use die cuts and stickers, but eventually started using rubber stamps to create some of my page layouts. I have always loved the cute style! And as you probably know, finding a cute little girl or little boy stamp back in 2002, consisted of a stick figure rubber stamp that was wood mounted. It worked for the time being, but after many years, I felt the need to bring exactly what I had envisioned to life….. This is when we decided to take that leap and go for it! With much excitement, we had the website built and Inky was born. I am very proud to say that Inky Impressions was the first rubber stamp company in the world to offer characters with realistic features.
Being a stay at home mommy and wife has allowed me the opportunity and the time to devote to Inky Impressions. Without the support of my family and friends, my dream of Inky Impressions would not have been possible. I can’t even begin to express how excited I am to share my dream with you. We are devoted to you, our customers, so please feel free to share your artwork that is made with our stamps, or to just drop us a line to say hello!
BIG HUGS!
Nicole

Welcome to my little corner of cyberspace. I'm Francesca and live in Rancho Cucamonga, California. I have four wonderful children, 2 granddaughters and a very understanding and godly hubby who I have been married to for almost 30 years now. 
I’m the Owner/Artist/Designer of Cute As A Button Stamps. I’ve been a crafty, artsy kind of girl since the age of 4, like forever! My dream has always been to have a career in the creative arts. I have worked both in the non-profit and in the legal corporate world for over 30 years before opening Cute As A Button Stamps, which is now my full time gig. I have been diagnosed with several debilitating sicknesses and was also laid off from work in 2013,. I needed to find something that had no start up costs and could help support my family, thus, Cute As A Button Stamps was opened in 2013. We have grown and now have over 300 Digi Stamps, and will be offering rubber stamps, card toppers and more items very soon.
I am also an ordained minister and have been in ministry for over 27yrs and have traveled the earth sharing the Gospel of Jesus. There is nothing I love more than going about My Father's business and showing others how much He loves them and has a purpose and plan for their lives.
I am excited to share my artwork with the community and love to draw images that come to mind throughout my day and share them with you. I am not only humbled but honored to see the beautiful works of art this community makes with my images. I am so blown away and in awe of the creativity of such wonderful people.
I have such a supportive family who has been behind me since the get go. My hubby, kiddos, grandchildren, and my travels are constant inspiration for my images.
I love a life where I can make others happy but support my family and keep them happy at the same time! I’m so thankful to God for all the blessings and that thru all the unnamed obstacles during this journey.
I invite you to become a follower of my blog. I plan for great things to share with everyone. I am sure you won't want to miss any of the fun challenges we have planned. You are welcome to hang around so we can get to know each other.
All of our designs are done by owner/artist Francesca Lopez. You can visit her Challenge blog at Cute As A Button Challenge.
