For this challenge we are so excited to have Bugaboo as our sponsor, they are such fabulous supporters of us! They are giving the winner 7, count them, 7 free digis! Thanks so much!

Here is a little bit about them...

"I decided to post a little about me as I find it is nice to put a face to the name on the internet!
My name is Jodie .(bottom, middle picture)
I am married and have 5 beautiful children, Skye, Isabella, Desiree, Sean, and Michael.

Add a dog a cat and a hubby to that .....a housefull!


I have been designing graphics for 9 years, mostly for those who digitize,
and now venturing into this new idea of digi stamps. 
I love to draw and love to see were my designs go and how they are used. 
I find making people smile with my graphics very rewarding!

For many many years I drew mostly cutesy kids graphics, alot of which you’ll find here.
But my latest passion is my cranky old boots....
Stella ,Gus, Margaret and the Gals who came after them.
I just LOVE to create them and they seem to be a favorite!"

OK, now onto the challenge. We want to see a card or project with a two-word sentiment - nice and easy, but brownie points for not using "Happy Birthday!"

Oooo and a little change of rules - we have decided, with regret, to limit entries to 5 per person.  We are finding it so difficult to visit everyone and take the time to fully marvel at the sheer gorgeousness of your creations, so felt that limiting to 5 entries would be a little more practical for us!

Here are the beautiful creations from Team A. Stop by next Thursday for more inspiration from Team B

Welcome to the second week of our Summer challenge.  Just a reminder you can create any project or card - just make sure you include a summer sentiment!

Also a little "heads up" that we have slightly changed our rules - because we have had SOOOOOO many wonderful entries, we have taken the decision to limit entries to a maximum of 5 per person.  It gets too tough to decide between you all otherwise!

For this challenge we are so excited to have Beccy's Place as our sponsor.
 Thanks so much!

Here is a little bit about her...

"I love spending time in my craft room designing and creating with paper, fabric, flowers, ribbons, paint... anything I can get my hands on really. I have tried many different arts and crafts and have a particular passion for papercrafts, decorative painting and ribbon embroidery. I love to share ideas and "how to's" with other keen crafters,"  Its well worth a little click over to Beccy's blog, she has some great tutorials as well as her gorgeous images.

We are so excited because its time for another DT call.  So, if you can commit to a 6 month position and are confident to work with digital images read on...

We are looking for new Design Team members to replace are outgoing DT members.
You will need to commit to producing a card or project every other week.  We have wonderful sponsors who often give images to the DT members to use, as well as the awesome prizes they offer.
We communicate via a closed Yahoo group.  We are very informal!  This is not a heavy going team!
You must commit to commenting on entries to the challenges, but this is not onerous as we have a rota for commenting - so you don't need to comment on every single entry!
We are just as happy to have people who have never been on a design team as those who are established DT members - its the talent and creativity that matters - but you must obviously have an online presence (active blog, facebook page etc etc).  

So, how do you apply?  Just enter our current challenge and add the letters DT behind your name!  Couldn't be simpler!

Oh, actually it could be simpler...if we made the theme of this challenge ANYTHING GOES (don't forget you MUST have a sentiment on your entry)!!!  Now that IS simple!

Obviously, if you are not applying for DT positions then just enter as usual!
