So since it's Boxing Day and I'm sure many of you are busy with your family and festivities still, I am having 18 people for Christmas dinner this afternoon myself, so it's an easy one this time around....Anything Goes is what we are looking for this week.  Our lovely sponsor is Bugaboo Stamps.  They have dontaed 7 digis to one lucky player as well as digis for our team!  Thanks Bugaboo!

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

Some DT news for you:

I would like to say farewell to Linda as she will be heading off to Florida for 4 months!  Thank you Linda for your time on my team and the wonderful creations you've made, enjoy the Florida sunshine!  Caz is also leaving us to pursue other fantastical opportunities, thanks Caz, we will definitely see you in blogland!! 

Tamie is back with us this week after being involved in a horrific car accident back in October, welcome back Tamie!

#14-Christmas Splendor- Crafty Sentiments

Our challenge last week seemed to get a wee bit lost somehow.  There were a ton of people almost everyone did not follow the blog rules let alone the actual challenge!
 The general blog rules are listed at the top of the blog and do not go anywhere ever....they need to be followed or you will not be eligible for a prize.  Then the challenge that is listed weekly needs to be followed as well or you will not be eligible for a prize.  Not to discourage anyone from entering, but my gosh, before I enter any challenge, I make dang sure my card fits the challenge and that I have followed any other challenge rules if applicable.

Dilly Beans Stamps was our fantastic sponsor and they kindly donated 3 digis to one lucky player!!

Our challenge last week was a Tic Tac Toe board and the instructions were to use 1 item from the first row or column depending on what way you wanted to use the board, then 2 from the second row or column and then all 3 from the third row or column, however only 1-one, uno, person followed the challenge rules.  She followed the general rules as well, so I am pleased to announce that our winner is entry
#12-All Crafty Bits (Charlotte M)
Congratulations Charlotte!  Thank you for taking the time to follow the rules!  You have won 3 digis from Dilly Bean Stamps!  Please contact me to claim your prize!

*********************************

This week we are lucky to have Crafty Sentiments on board with us as our sponsor.  Our lovely DT received some great digis to work with and one lucky player (who actually follows both the blog rules and the challenge) will win 3 digis!  Lucky duck I'd say, they have some super cute new digis!!
