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 six 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! 

The prize this week is a $12 voucher!

Guest Designer: Maria Tchotcheva

Guest Designer Zubida using Timeless Beauties
Hello Friends!

I am really honored to be a guest designer at  TTCRD blog this week. For this post, I have created a card and have colored the beautiful image from A Day For Daisies called 'Tiny Fashionable Present' with Copic markers. The background is done by layering different papers. The purple and silver papers are both heat embossed with embossing powder to give my card a rich look.  Finally, I have embellished this card with ribbons, stamens and handmade flowers.
