My name is Lee Holland and I am a freelance illustrator who loves to design and draw cute characters. I've worked in many industries over the years including greeting cards, card making, cross stitch and books to name a few. I love nature and going for walks with my family which provides a lot of inspiration for my work. I decided to open an etsy shop to sell my designs as Digi stamps for crafters to use in their crafting projects. I hope people enjoy using my images as much as I do drawing them :)

This week's PRIZE is Two (2) Digital Stamps
of WINNER's Choice!

Please join us in Welcoming our Guest Designer this week!!

Margreet
I am Margreet Burger. I live in the Netherlands with my husband Joop. I am a mother to Femke, who recently got married to Paul. I am working part-time as a secretary in the veterinary pharmaceutical industry.
I've been a crafter all my life, but card making and paper crafting is all the world to me. I love coloring with copics, distress (markers) and l'Aquarelle (Sennelier).
I am very excited to be Guest Designer for the Love to Create Challenge this week.

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

This week's PRIZE is Seven (7) Digital Stamps
 of WINNER's Choice!

Kathie
I am married to William and have two lovely boys. I've been crafting ever since I can remember holding a pen, knitting needles and a needle and thread. My mother was a keen crafter and an amazing seamstress and chef who taught all of us girls to knit sew, crochet and cook and couldn't stand us sitting around with idle hands. I'm very passionate about most crafts from Cross Stitch to Card Making and Scrapbooking with some Sewing and Bead Work thrown in. I've been card making now for five years and made some wonderful blogging friends over this period. I can’t believe the amazing talent there is and how many new techniques and tools are so prominent today. If I'm not at home I'm sometimes at the office with my Hubby otherwise I'm on the road, travelling back an fourths to my son's schools and on the sports fields with the boys or watching them swim and play tennis or soccer. Weekends and holidays are a very precious time for me with my family. Otherwise you could find us at our beach house and out on the boat or in my craft room making cards or enjoying the company of my friends and family over dinner and a glass of wine.

Simply Betty Stamps was born in 2010 when I had to close down my actual store due to my youngest being a preemie. I was home, with a brand new baby and felt so helpless just being home without working. I knew how to draw and had always wanted to be a stamp designer, but how the heck to get it up and running was something I knew nothing about. I started blogging, got on my first DT position and learned all about the digi world. Still didn't know how to go about making digis, as I am totally old school and go paper and pencil all the way! I had to hire artists that new how to make "clean lines" or "line-art" for digis. I started my business with other artist rather than drawing myself as again, I had no clue on how to do it. I started googling and searching the web on how to and here we are three years later. Most my images are drawn and made up from my own little family, mostly my kids and they are named after them as well. Moving forward now with a few artists still on board but myself included in the art work as I love nothing more than to sketch something out, "line-art it" print it and color it! I love what I do, I absolutely love more than anything the dear friends and fans I have and the joy I get from their friendships more than anything! 

This week's PRIZE is ...
a $10.00 Gift Certificate to Simply Betty Stamps!

Christine

Hi my name is Christine Ingram. I have been crafting for such a long time as I have been drawing since I was about six years old and I used to make dolls clothes and furniture for my toys from old shoe boxes and glue ,cloth etc. I later went into sewing and Knitting, could crochet and pretty much look at most things and go home and create my version using re-cycled things before it became the thing to do. I trained as a Window Dresser on leaving school, but left to have my family. I used to do a lot of pencil drawing and even went back to school to sit with the kids to get my A pass GCSE in Art ... lol. I even had a small exhibition of some of my work in the local library. Have been card making nearly 10 yrs now. I was so happy to be asked to do the Guest Designer for Love to Create and waited to see what was in store. Wow a Simply Betty Stamp and its Halloween. EEK!! Never done one before this is my first. I have thoroughly loved this it has been a wonderful experience. I hope you all love this as much as I have creating it. Happy Halloween ....BOO!!

The Stamping Chef was born in November 2012, Here’s a little bit about Tamara, the artist/ creator of all the wonderful images you will find in The Stamping Chef store. Drawing is my passion, and my style is fun, cute and doodlish ~I think =D. I love to see images come to life when they're colored by amazing crafters. Creating digital images can be a tedious process, but I love each and every step of it.
The Stamping Chef offers a anything goes weekly challenge on Wednesday on our Blog, and many weekly and monthly challenges on our The Stamping Chef forum http://thestampingchef.com/Forum/ to play along with for some TSC images to win!

I have no special style in my cards, I like to try different things and styles. Stamps,digistamps, 3D’s and ready pictures; CAS, vintage, fun, scary – like to do them all. Just can’t make my mine which is my fav, but I do know: I’m happy when crafting…
