MIM!

It's time for another fab challenge at MIM and this week our friends at Bugaboo are back!

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!

Remember, to be in the running to win the prize from our sponsor this week just leave a comment for another entry. Be sure to mention you saw them on Make It Monday. The more entries you comment on the more chances you have of winning!

 

 

Here is my creation using Fancy SB Thanksgiving...

Last Cupcake post...

Well the day is finally here...time to say good-bye to my friends at Cupcake Inspirations!  I recently went back to work and am just overwhelmed with trying to balance everything.  Since I did not feel I could give my all, I am stepping down from the Cupcakes DT.  They were my very FIRST DT and I am so grateful they gave me a chance!  It has been an amazing two years and I am so sad to be saying good-bye to these wonderful ladies! 

But I get to go out with a bang...celebrating my (second) favorite holiday HALLOWEEN!!!

Here is our inspirational photo:

AND I got to play with these fabulous owl images from Stamps of Life:

So cute!  I love owls!

Ok, it's time to sign off.  I do hope you get a chance to join the fabulous challenge this week for a great prize!

Happy Sunday!!!
