Arctic Stamper

I received this award from Sue. Thanks very much Sue!

To receive this award I must pass it on to 5 people whose blog inspires me.

The rules:
1. The winner may put the logo on their blog.
2. Put a link to the person who sent you the award.
3. Nominate 5 blogs.
4. Put links to their blogs.
5. Leave a message for your nominees.

Well, it’s always difficult to nominate inspiring blogs because there are just so many of them. But, here goes, in no particular order:
Dan, Billie, Jerseygirl, Sulie, and Lynn. 

I got this award from Billie. Thank you so much Billie - this is much appreciated.

These are the rules:
1) You have to pick 5 blogs that you consider deserve this award for, creativity, design, interesting material, and also contributing to the blogger community, no matter what language.
2) Each award has to have the name of the author and also a link to his or her blog to be visited by everyone.
3) Each award-winner, has to show the award and put the name and link to the blog that has given her or him the award itself.
4) Award-winners and the one who has given the prize should show the link to the Arte y pico blog, so everyone will know the origin of this award.
5) To show these rules.

I have been looking through loads of amazing blogs but they all already have this award so I’m going to be a wuss and not pass this on. If you are reading this and have not yet received this award, consider yourself awarded.

Just thought I start a blog as a place to store and show my crafts and the occasional pictures of my two dogs and the amazing landscape that surrounds me. My crafts, rubber stamping especially, is done, as the name suggests, far north above the Arctic Circle, in Finnish Lapland.

Having no light pollution round here we can admire the northern lights in their whole glory. It is the most amazing sight and I do not get tired of watching them. And the same goes for the night sky in general. Not anywhere have I seen stars so bright and in such numbers. So, I have added to my long shopping list of craft products and rubber stamps yet another item: a telescope.
