Freebie Friday at Bugaboo

Meet Dottie

new member of the Bugaboo family

Isn't she sassy??

Personally I think she would make a

perfect redhead.

Unfortunately I don't have the right

copics for the job.  Some of the 

other DT members made her a blonde,

which also looks really good.  

Want to see?  Go to Catch the Bug

and see what the others did.

Sweet Sketch Wednesday with Bugaboo

Oldie but Goodie at Bugaboo

It's Thursday so it's 

Oldie but Goodie day over at Bugaboo.

I love this paper and thought this image was 

a perfect fit.

I'm entering this one in

Stamps r us challenge blog

where "anything goes" 

this week.

I'm so glad that Christmas is literally

around the corner.

All the shopping is done, house is cleaned

only a few gifts left to wrap and groceries

to buy.  Huge sigh of relief

come Sunday.

Naughty list

Countdown to Christmas continues....

Have you been naughty or nice??

One of my favorite sketch blogs is 

Fridaysketchers

I just love these Crabby Cathy

images from Bugaboo.

Sassy isn't she?

NEW RELEASE BUGABOO TUESDAY

How cute is this little guy??

More bobbleheads released at 

Bugaboo today.

Can't wait to use this on some

Easter cards too. 

I paper pieced the inside of the ears and the 

pads on the feet.  

It's been fun making 

Christmas cards but I'm looking

forward to making some red and pink

Valentine's Day cards.

Don't forget about Bugaboo's

challenge this week.

Sgrooge

Yeah, with shopping left to do, a menu to play and food to buy, plus a house to clean

and presents left to wrap......this is how I feel.  

Bugaboo is sponsoring a challenge over at Card Cupids.

The challenge is to use your favorite tool.  My FAVORITE tool 

is the irock.  Those little white "brad looking" things on my card.

Those are "rocks" put on with the irock.  It's a battery operated tool.  You place

the little rocks where you want them, then heat up the tool in a matter of seconds 

 and then place the tool on top of the rocks.  It in turn heats the 

glue on the backside of the rocks, melting them right to the paper.

They look like brads but without having to worry about prongs to hide.

It's genius and I use it ALL the time.

Bugaboo Challenge

Time for another Bugaboo Challenge!

This week the theme is

Christmas Cookies

So run over and submit your 

entry for a chance to win

Bugaboo characters.

RED AND GREEN

Did this for the challenge over at

Crafty Hos' Challenge Blog

The challenge is Red and Green.

Bugaboo (of course).

I have had so much fun making

Christmas cards this year

but I'm excited to start 

Valentine's Day cards.

Stella :)

Oh, how I love Stella

from Bugaboo.

This is kind of how I feel lately.

Sad to say I know but

my list just keeps getting longer 

while my time gets shorter.

Wanted to get some card making 

in  today but doesn't look like that's

going to happen.

Had to go shopping instead.

I think I can probably finish up 

the rest of it in a few hours if

I really put my mind to it.

Anyway, hope this brought a

smile to your face :)

New Release Tuesday at Bugaboo

Yeahhhhh more BRATS!

Bugaboo has a line of "Brats"

they are so sweet.

Can't wait to see  the other ones.

Difficult to see in the picture but

I cut the legs off and popped them out 

on pop dots for dimension.

I embossed the background with

my scor-pal.

One of these brats would make

a perfect card for the winter

wonderland challenge going on now

over at the

Catch the Bug challenge blog.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS

Countdown to Christmas continues...

I find myself running in place.

So much to do, so little time and all

I want to do is stamp.

The Christmas spirit is slowly setting in

but it never really feels Christmasy

to me until THAT day.

My son asked Santa for a go-kart.

Luckily the Santa at the mall 

talked logistics with him and I think

he's given up on the idea.

My parents got him an electric scooter

which will have to be close enough. 

Created this card for a challenge at

Aud Sentiments Challenge Blog

Oldie but Goodie at Bugaboo

When I look at at this image I think of 

my brother and I

snooping for Christmas presents in the

basement.

One year when my parents left for a bit 

my brother and I unwrapped some of our

presents very carefully

and no one would of been the wiser but....

when my parents returned my brother got in

trouble for something that had nothing to

do with Christmas.

In the heat of the moment he blurts out

"Well, Amy got blue boots!!"

The cat was out of the bag.

We got in trouble and Mom said all the 

presents were going back.

She never did return anything though.

The next year the gifts were kept at my 

Great Grandparents house

until they were wrapped and our lives

were threatened.

NEW RELEASE BUGABOO TUESDAY

It's New Release Tuesday at

Bugaboo.

One of my favorite days of the week,

the other being Freebie Friday.

I can't wait to see the rest of this set :)

Check out the punch.  It's a Martha Stewart punch.

The little stars scattered around the card 

are the scraps from using the punch.

Bugaboo's challenge this week

is Anything Goes

check it out HERE

so you can make a card with this image

(or any other) and enter for

a chance to win 

Bugaboo images.

Prickley Pear

Merry Christmas!

I made this card with an image from

Prickley Pear Rubber Stamps.

I just love this paper.

I used a nestability to cut out the image.

I love that ribbon too.

It's big but it has wire in the sides

so you can shape it which makes ribbon

making easier.

There are little pearls on the 

scalloped ends.

Paper: Miscellaneous

Stamps: Prickley Pear Rubber Stamps

die: nestabilities

miscellaneous wired ribbon

miscellaneous pearl accents
