Cocoa Anyone?

Hmm...the weather forecast for St. Louis over the next couple of days is unlike anything I ever remember hearing in the 20+ years I've lived here. We're expecting one half to three quarters of an inch of ice followed by 6-10 inches of snow. Yes, HERE...in St. Louis. That combination and in those quantities just does not happen here so let's hope the forecasters are wrong. Otherwise we're looking at more days off of school and worse, downed power lines from all the ice. Ugh. Cold...no electricity...scary.

You can tell it's cold here, right? That's why I've been enjoying a nightly cup of hot chocolate. :)

Challenges:

Secret crafter- hot chocolate images or colors

Crazy 4 Challenges-vintage/shabby chic

Tuesday Morning Sketches-sketch

Crafty Creations Challenge-heat it up

Paper Play Challenges-layer it up

ATC Anyone?

Ahh... the ATC. What do you do with your ATCs? Do you collect them? Trade them? Store them in a book somewhere? Or do you use them on your cards? I'm asking because I really don't know what to do with the ATCs that I have. I love them, but I'm at a loss as to what to actually DO with them so any ideas would be appreciated.
I'm talking about ATCs today because that is the Bugaboo Challenge this week. Make an ATC. Here is mine:

I love these little birthday kids! They're part of the A Kids' View line of images at Bugaboo. Check out the rest of the DT's creations at the Catch the Bug Blog and join in the challenge over there. We'd love to see your ATC. I'm also entering this in the One Stop Craft Challenge which is Anything Goes ATCs.

More Ava and Deacon

How sweet is this image of Deacon with his teddy bear? SOOO sweet, I know.

Check out all the new additions to the Ava and Deacon line that Jodie is releasing today. One is cuter than the next!

I posted a "Best Buds" card the other day for the boys. Today I'm posting a "Best Friends" card for the girls:

Challenges:

I Demand a Recount

Do you feel this way on your birthday? I think we can all relate to Gus at some point.

Warm Kitty...Soft Kitty...

Have you checked out the Garden Cats line at Bugaboo stamps? I am not a big fan of cats in real life (I'm allergic) but I LOVE these Garden Cat images. They are all so cute and the cats are just in the cutest situations...they're adorable. Go check them out.

Oh, and since it's Oldie but Goody Thursday, head over to the Catch the Bug Blog and see what the rest of the Bugaboo DT chose for their OBG today. You're sure to find more images that you can't live without. :) I am entering this into Penny's Challenge #45-Anything Goes.

Best Buds

This is one of my favorite images from Bugaboo Stamps...these boys are just SO adorable and they really do look like Best Buds:

Challenges:

Cute Somethings

The challenge this week at Stamp Something is "cute somethings"...I think this adorable teddy bear from Bugaboo Stamps qualifies for a "cute something"

I used the sketch from Sketch Saturday which is sponsored by Bugaboo this week.
