We love to see your beautiful cards each week and are so thrilled to have you back with us today.

Greetings everyone! This is Stephanie from Motivet Rubberstamps. I am native from Sweden but have been living in Canada for almost 4 years. I started the company a little over a year ago, providing American style stamps to my fellow stampers in Scandinavia. The more I got into the North American world of stamping, the more I realized how different it is over here. The company took a new direction, and we started manufacturing our own stamps, trying to introduce the European way of cardmaking here in North America.

We sell world wide through our Webshop , and we also have retailers in a lot of countries. On our inspiration blog you have the chance to win Motivet Rubberstamps every week.
-On Fridays we have a week long Sketch Challenge where you have the opportunity to win stamps, 3 stamps for the nicest card, and a randomly selected winner gets 2 stamps.
-For every comment you post on the blog you enter for a chance to win 5 rubber stamps, every week! So, come join us in the fun!

Below is a sample of the stamps we make. The winner of this week’s Friday Sketchers will get to pick 3 unmounted Rubberstamps in our store (sets are excluded).

*Wink *Wink Ink is a fairly new company that specializes in cute images of children, animals, and other fun creatures.

These are great for doing quick projects when you don't have time to color or for use as a guide for coloring your own. You get a colored jpg, a black and white jpg, and a transparent png file of each image for one low price. Many stamps now come in sets with sentiments included too!

Hi, welcome here at Friday Sketchers for a new sketch! I'm Tanja from Germany and your host this week. I'm so proud to tell you that Roberta from

is our sponsor this week! Thank you so much, Roberta!

Hello! I am Roberta from Prairie Fairy Designs. I am a digital stamp company featuring artwork not only created by me but also my two kids, ages 9 and 12. They are featured on the site as the Fairy Princess and the Prairie Prince. I have been an artist for as long as I can remember and have always loved to create. Two years ago my sister-in-law invited me to a rubber stamp party. I laughed and said "Maybe I will buy something if I can use it to stamp on canvases.". Needless to say, I was hooked! Two years later, a lot of learning about computers, and a few setbacks with web stuff (I am so not tech savvy!) I finally accomplished my goal. We have been around since the spring and still growing. If you have any questions about going digital, check out the site and the Prairie Fairy blog for more information, tips and tutorials. So head on over to Prairie Fairy Designs and check it out!

The wonderful prize will be any 6 single images, for example this cutie here ...
