Pumpkin Trio with Bugaboo Stamps

Hello all and Happy Saturday!  Today I'm sharing a card for this weeks challenge at Catch the Bug which is a photo inspiration.
 
Obviously I'm going with the pumpkins (I've never been good with photo insp.) from Bugaboo Stamps called Fall Pumpkin Trio.
I already had all my Halloween cards done, but can always add someone to the list.  I think sending and receiving mail (not bills of course) is awesome.  With text, email, and facebook, there's only a message.  But with a card, you put yourself into it.  Whether you create it or purchase it, I just feel there is more individualized thought that goes into it all.  But hey, that's just me.  I wish you a wonderful weekend!

Cornucopia with From the Heart Stamps

Hello all and Happy Thursday!  Today I'm sharing a card featuring the From the Heart Stamp of the Month:
As usual, since I mail out my cards, I'm going with a simple, flat design.  And of course, if you don't know how the FTH Stamp of the Month works, I highly encourage you to check it out!  It's always a win - win just for entering!

Window Girl with Bugaboo Stamps

Hello and Happy Saturday.  A new challenge has been set at Catch the Bug Challenge Blog: Bingo (please see blog for bingo card!):
I'm featuring Bugaboo Stamps' Kidz Punky Topper and going with Border, 3 Layers, and Bugaboo Image.  This is actually for a November birthday, but I didn't want to stamp the outside with a sentiment.  I also really regret not putting grass behind the fence to attach to the flowers, but what's done is done.  Join the challenge if you can for a chance to win some great Bugaboo digis!

Festive Pumpkin with Bugaboo Stamps

Hello all and Happy Friday!  My favorite day in the work week.  Today I'm sharing a card using Bugaboo Stamps Freebie Friday - yes, that's right, you can get this Halloween Pumpkin for free this week only:
I went with traditional colors.  Another card to send out this year!  I made a few more than I intended, but that's ok, there's always someone out there who could use a little snail mail!  That's it for today.  Have a wonderful Friday and don't forget to pick up your freebie!!

Little Monsters with Doodle Pantry

Hello all and happy Hump Day!  Today I'm sharing my little lunchbox creations made for Beanie of course.  Throughout the month, I put little surprises in her lunch - like plastic roaches, Halloween riddles, spiders, and of course, chocolate!
I used the Monster Mash set from Doodle Pantry.
I picked up these Dove eyeballs from Target.
I printed them out, fussy cut, and taped the eyeball on.  Hopefully someday Bean will realize she is always on my mind.  Anyway, I will be entering these in this month's Ants in My Pantry Doodle Pantry challenge.

Fall Owl with Bugaboo Stamps

Hello and Happy Saturday.  Today I'm sharing a card for this week's Catch the Bug challenge: Fall:
I'm featuring Bugaboo Stamps' Cute Owl.  I couldn't find the perfect sentiment, so I put a few sequins to fill that little empty spot, but I'm featuring plenty of fall colors.

You're Nuts with Bugaboo Stamps

Hello all and Happy Hump Day!  Every Wednesday I go into Bean's room and ask in a nice loud "camel" voice, "do you know what today is?!"  That child is going to put me in a crazy home some day...hopefully it's a fun place!  Anyway, at Catch the Bug Blog, today is Humor Me Wednesday where we celebrate little known holidays, like today!  Did you know it's Do Something Nice Day?
For me, sending a card for no reason at all is a pretty nice thing to do.  So I'm actually mailing this out today.  This Bugaboo Stamp of Autumn Squirrel can go so many ways (including a little naughty), but I'm sending it to a "nut" I know.  So try to Do Something Nice today and have a wonderful day!  This meets the following challenges: Crafting From the Heart: Anything Goes, Craft Your Passion: Anything Goes, MarkerPOP: Anything Goes (using Copics), and Papertake Weekly: Anything Goes.

Coffee Understands with From The Heart.

Hello all and Happy Tuesday.  I'm so excited that I finally get to play along with this week's From The Heart Stamps I Heart Sketches #121 with an optional twist of keeping it flat - so I did both, since flat cards are my fave:
I've been dying to use this FTH Birdbrain Needs Coffee stamp.  And this is the sketch:
And in case you didn't know, anyone who plays along gets $1 to the FTH shop!  So you win no matter what!

Goth Girl with Bugaboo Stamps

Hello all and happy Thursday.  Today I'm sharing Beanie's Halloween Card:
I'm featuring Bugaboo Stamps' Goth Girl.  I know it's not "traditional" Halloween card/colors, but I thought the bat and cat sorta make for a spooky card.  This year Bean wants to be an Army soldier...so I've got to get working on that since they don't seem to sell just what she wants in stores.  So, I thank you for stopping by, and wish you a wonderful day!
