MIM#171 Fairy Lights with Bugaboo

A new Linky Party has begun at Make It Monday. I'm still in the throes of last minute cards and housework and now that school is finished, babysitting as well. I have all three grandchildren today and I need to get petrol and go to the shops. While I'm sitting here in front of the computer they are happily watching Cars 2 in the family room.

How are your preparations going? All finished or like me still muddling along?

Well I want to congratulate Laura as our featured artist this week and also Billie Aas the winning commenter. Hope you enjoy your prize from Michelle.

I ended up going pretty simple again for my card. I just couldn't think as I wasn't feeling very well yesterday.

I have made a Z fold card but I've scanned it so you can't really see that. It was too dark for a decent photo last night and I think I missed getting it in for Michelle to include in today's Make It Monday post, so it might appear there later on.

Here is the picture of my card....

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   atTotally Stampalicious. And finally, join the Bugaboo Stamps DT   for weekly challenges at Catch the Bug. 

Bugaboo Stamps are offering a very generous prize of winner's choice of 7 single digis!

Drum roll please........POTW time so here are the two entries I've chosen to feature!

The first one is this gorgeous Christmas card from Cathy at My Creative Space and you can find it here.

The second one is from  Marie from The Joy of Cards and Paper Crafting and you can find it here.

Aren't those birds just stunning

Well, I seem to be having trouble saving my post and publishing. Hopefully I won't have to try all over again from scratch! (edited - I ended up saving this to a document and then pasting into a new post because I'd been trying for 40 minutes to get it to save and schedule and then just tried to post with no luck - Blogger playing games with me!!!)

Don't forget to pop in to see the DT's cards on their blogs and remember to be in the running for the fab prize from Bugaboo, just stop by some of the other entries blogs and leave a comment.

Thanks for stopping by and if I don't  "see" you beforehand I'd like to wish you all a Merry Christmas,

Take Care

Hugs,

Sandy
