Most of you are aware that TLP and the scrap community as a whole lost a talented designer and special friend in Dawn Inskip last month. I did not know Dawn well, but what I did know, and what I have learned since her passing, is that she was a beautiful person inside and out, and loved by many. She was a gifted artist with a passion for art journaling and mixed media, and her ability to use color and texture made her designs brilliantly unique. She loved nature and animals, and it was clear in her designs and scrapbook pages how much she truly celebrated life. Above all else, she was a wife, mother, friend, who understood how truly important family was. As a tribute to Dawn, our August challenges are dedicated to her. Each of the challenges (except for BYOC) has some sort of connection to Dawn, either to her designs, to her scrap style, or to her outlook on life. We hope that however you approach your scrapping, you will place a little piece of Dawn in your challenge pages this month, and remember her fondly, as we all do. We all feel the loss of Dawn in some way, but we are all better people to have known her and interacted with her. Fly free, sweet Dawn.
I already often use something by Dawn in most of my pages. I may never remove her products from my TLP folder.
