Our Stunning Sponsor This week is:

 BUGABOO  STAMPS

Everything That You Ever Wanted to Know About Bugaboo Stamps: A Short Essay As if raising five children in the frozen land of the North was not enough of a challenge, Jodie Mackrell decided to dip her cold little Canadian toes into the world of papercrafting by opening an online store full of her illustrations. That was two years ago. Today Bugaboo Stamps is one of the leading companies in digital images, and we're still growing! From seriously snarky to sugary sweet to sublimely soulful all the way over to the other side of the super sexy spectrum, you're bound to find all that you need and more to create your paper projects. Jodie works very hard to provide New Releases and Freebies every week! If your taste runs to rubber (and you know who you are), you can find Bugaboo Stamps stamps at Totally Stampalicious. And finally, join the Bugaboo Stamps DT for weekly challenges at Catch the Bug.

We are super excited to Introduce our Guest Designer

 ANNA  

 My name is Anna, I'm Polish. I've started making cards 9 months ago and this is my next real passion. In the meantime, I'm a primary school teacher, as well as the dance teacher and a fitness instructor. Well, that's a broad spectrum! LOL. I just love watching other crafter's blog, where I can learn a lot and I think I have some interesting ideas, too. My new best friend is a Sizzix Big Shot machine, I'm still experimenting with it. It is a real pleasure to be a GDT for the Love to Create Challenges Blog!

Now for some fabulous inspiration from our design team!

We have Two Fabulous Sponsors this week!

A warm welcome to the Wonderful
Floppy Latte

Hi. I'm Jessica (or FLOPPY) of FLOPPY LATTE DESIGNS. I design digital stamps and papers, and also rework old woodcuts and drawings and put them into digital stamp form.. and i'm Stef (or GLITTERBABE) as i'm known in blogland. I also design digital stamps but not quite as intricately as FLOPPY does. Together we're the LATTE LADIES, or better known as FLOPPY LATTE DESIGNS. Jess is the more serious one and Stef is the clown – always trying to make people laugh. ok. So she likes the limelight. Keeps me (Jess) in the background creating. Together we offer a variety of stamping and scrapbooking images and items reaching out to everyone's tastes (so we think). Do drop by FLOPPY LATTE DESIGNS ( www.floppylattedesigns.com/catalog ) and have a look around. We are sure you'll see something you like and we guarantee it'll put a smile on your face!

Wedgie (Rachel)

I started crafting almost by accident about 8 years ago. I was never artisitc or creative as a child, but there is no stopping me now! I love papercrafts and making cards that that make other people smile. My speciality is girly...a lot of my cards are pink or purple and sparkle a lot! I am also a keen baker, my latest cakes can often be seen on my blog, and this passion often influences my crafting too, as you'll often find a cupcake or two featured on my cards! I am so excited to be picked to join the Love to Create DT this week.

Please take a minute and stop over to leave Wedgie some sweet hugs!!!

I am excited to introduce our Guest Designer this Week

 

Karen

 

 

 I became interested in paper arts at the age of 11 and thus started my decoupage journey. I would decoupage anything that didn’t move. I started making cards on the computer about twelve years ago and I did that for years and years. I drifted into making cards “by hand” about seven years ago. My love affair with stamps began in earnest about six years ago when my best friend moved out of state. I really missed her and felt a connection to her by making cards for her. So, from that point, things just snowballed. I really enjoy the creative outlet of making little works of art. Every day is an adventure in the stamping world.

 

Here is Karen's fabulous card she is sharing
