WELCOME to the NEW designs by Amber Shaw

My team and I have been baiting you for a few weeks about big news for Ruby Lane.  Well today is the day to reveal that news to you!  But first, let me give you a little history... a little over a month ago I was contacted by the legal team of an online store that felt my design name was in infringement upon their trademark.  After much research, and a few consultations - it was determined that though this company really did not have the grounds to make such a demand, and furthermore they are missing an incredible opportunity for cross promotion - never the less Ruby Lane will be going away!  Starting today, Ruby Lane Designs is now just little ol me - designs by Amber Shaw.  All of the previous content from the Ruby Lane blog has been imported to this blog as well so you will not have missed anything!

To celebrate I have created a mini kit available in both of my stores AND I have created an add on that I am giving away for a limited time on my NEW Facebook Fan page!  Additionally I have released the 1st of many pieces to the Project 1440 Collection.  Be sure to grab them while thye are on sale!  I'm not done yet!!!  I am having a Giveaway!  Please leave a comment and be entered win all 12 of the Project 1440 monthly mini kits for 2012!





Just to recap --

*  Out with the old (Ruby Lane Designs) and in with the NEW Amber Shaw!
*  THIS NEW blog, Facebook Fanpage and Twitter
*  New Releases:  Memoirs of Ruby Lane mini kit & Project January mini kit
*  Limited Time Facebook Fanpage Freebie HERE
*  AND a chance to win 12 Project 1440 mini kits by leaving a comment at the end of this post - make sure to bookmark this new blog to keep up with future posts because soon this blog will be no more!

I thank each and everyone of my fans and followers for your support I wholeheartedly look forward to this "new" me and bringing you designs to make all of your memories sweeter!

Love and Blessings -- Amber

  4. Amber, it was so kind of you to change your design title even though you may not have had to do it. As a published decorative artist and designer, I've had a few friends who also came across this issue and things did not go well. Life is too short for issues like this and I admire you for changing--besides, we all know your real name, now!! Thank you for the FB freebie and for the opportunity to win your new goodies. Hope that 2012 will be your best yet (it's bound to be with that great new name!!) Hugs--

  19. I agree with everyone who has left a comment. I too hope that the new year and your new name will bring you loads of new customers and lots of good fortune. It always makes me sad when one person (or business) picks on another and causes pain and inconvenience, but at the same time I am uplifted when the person being harassed responds in a gracious, graceful manner, as you have done. You have definitely emerged as the wiser person, and you are the winner in my eyes as a result of this engagement of legal wills. May God bless you in all that you do!
