Nicole
Hello!! I’m a former kindergarten teacher who is now a stay at home mom to my 2 little girls. I have always enjoyed paper crafting and started this hobby by making little treat boxes and party favors. I have recently discovered a new love of coloring with Copic Markers. I would color all day long if my family would let me…!! Lol! My favorite colors are the blue greens (affectionately called the BG’s) and I try to sneak them into every card I make!! I love to get crafty with my girls (ages 8 & 6) and let them color images right along side me. It’s a fun hobby for us all to share!! I'm so happy that Ruza and Jackie asked me to join them for the challenge this week.

Bugaboo Stamps
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 from Bugaboo Stamps is ...
Seven (7) Digital Stamps of WINNER's Choice!

Alison

Hi, I’m Alison, and I live in France.  My first memories of crafting are from my Primary school days, when we made felt animals, did some basket weaving and painted on glass. I have always enjoyed sewing and knitting, and when my children were small I made clothes for them and for my daughter’s dolls, although Action Man got a few jumpers as well. After I retired from teaching I started making cards for family and friends, but it was when my son helped me set up my blog, last July, that I became addicted to card making. I now spend a great deal of time in my craft room – it’s my own little haven.
I’m so pleased to have the chance to be a Guest Designer with Love to Create this week, when they celebrate their 2nd Birthday Anniversary.

Sujin (Bastelarena)

Hi everyone! My name is Sujin and I am so honored and grateful to be a guest designer at Love to Create Challenge (thank you for offering me the opportunity!). When entering challenges I use my nickname Bastelarena which means crafting arena in English. I live in Germany and have been card making for about three years. But I loved to craft since I was a child (drawing, cross stitching, modelling little figures using polymer clay…). I hope you´ll like my interpretation of the wonderful sketch and play along this week as well. Enjoy the week and make it crafty!
Hugs, Sujin (Bastelarena)
