This will be a monthly event happening on the last day of every month. You may have just come from Kathryn Lowe's blog, but if you are starting here, don't worry ....you can make the complete journey just by following the links at the end of each post. There are 11 other stops along the way and we hope you will visit each one to see the wonderful creations we have to show you! If you leave a comment on each and every blog and then email Nikki at nikki@inkyart.com.au your name withh be put into the hat to win some beautiful blog candy. The deadline to leave some comments is by 6am February 3rd and only non SU demonstrators are eligible to win the candy - although we'd love all visitors to leave some comments please.
So for our first tour we decided upon the theme of Valentines. At the end of each post there will be a link to take you to the next stop on the tour. It would be fantastic if you could leave a comment on each blog. So grab a cuppa, and set off on what we are hoping will be an inspirational journey!
