Oldie But Goodie Day

Thursday again! You know what that means, right? Yep, it’s time for another Oldie But Goodie day at Bugaboo Stamps. In case you’re not familiar with OBG day, it is the day of the week when the DT pulls out some older, maybe forgotten, Bugaboo images and shows them off in a new card.  Today I used this image Cocoa Cup:

You can get this image over at the Bugaboo store right now. If you’re looking for more inspiration or are just wondering what the rest of the DT wants to show you today, head over to the Catch the Bug blog to check them out!

Anything But a Card

Did you know that Mondays are ANYTHING BUT A CARD DAY at Bugaboo Stamps? Yep, you know, if you get tired of making cards all the time and want a little inspiration for something else to do with all your paper, head over to Catch the Bug on any Monday and you'll find PLENTY of inspirational projects.
Today, I decided to make a Post It Note holder. This is made from an acrylic photo frame that you can get for like $2 pretty much anywhere. I found the instructions HERE
It's really easy to make and makes a fun addition to your desk. Of course I had to use a Stella image:

I don't know if you can tell from the picture but the frame is on it's side, you decorate a 4x6 piece of paper and slide it in the frame an then attach the post it pad to the outside. Easy peasy!

Bugaboo ANYTHING GOES challenge

The first Saturday of the month rolls around fast, don't you think? Well, that's a good thing in Bugaboo world because the first Saturday is ALWAYS our ANYTHING GOES challenge. That means you can enter our challenge and be in the running for prizes using whatever you want to make!
Today I used one of my favorite images, Itchy Dog. I love him in his little sweater and the look on his face is just precious:

Oldie But Goodie Day

Hooray for Thursday! Why, you ask? Because Thursday is OLDIE BUT GOODIE day at Bugaboo stamps. It's the day when the DT rolls out some older, maybe forgotten, images to show you to remind you that you want these images or maybe to introduce you to them for the first time (if you missed their original release date)
Today I'm using this GUY CAR image because I needed a birthday card for my son who turned 15. He's kind of outgrowing the cute bears and little kids and in Missouri (where I live) you can get your learner's permit for driving when you turn 15 so I thought this was an appropriate image for his card, though he won't be driving like this anytime soon...I hope!

You can pick up this guy at the Bugaboo store and if you're looking for more Oldie but Goodie projects, head over to the Catch the Bug blog to see what the rest of the DT is showing off today.

Saturday Bingo Challenge

Today's challenge at Bugaboo is to use the Bingo Board and make a card using three across, down or diagonal. I made my card with the row "Bugaboo Image/Pink/Flowers"

Humor Me Wednesdays

There have been a lot of changes at Bugaboo in the two months I've been gone.One of them is that there is now a new Wednesday theme which is called "Humor Me Wednesday".
