For this challenge we are so excited to have Bugaboo as our sponsor. Thanks so much!


Here is a little bit about them...


"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 where 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, a lot of which you’ll find on my site.  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!
What else can I say? 
The name Bugaboo Stamps...how did I come up with it?
Well...... Bugaboo is a nickname i have for my kids sometimes."

OK, now onto the challenge. We want to see a card or project for a man - with an appropriate sentiment....

For this challenge we are so excited to have TWO SPONSORS!!!  Thanks so much!


First up is....Doodle Pantry

Here is a little bit about them...


Hello, my name is Laurie.  I am a wife, mother of 2, crafter, and artist of many trades.  I'm just a regular Joe crafter.  I decided it would be FUN to put my images up at affordable prices for anyone to purchase and use for their personal crafting.  It is not my dream to be the biggest or the best or the most popular.  I truly enjoy what I do and enjoy sharing the creativity that God has given me in the hopes it will inspire others to create too.
Each doodle of mine has a special place in my life.  Even if they were done for a special customer request.  I drew it for a certain reason, maybe someone I know whom I had in mind to make a card for, or just someone that inspired me in some way, and sometimes it was just a random thought of a funny little critter doing something critter-ish that I thought would be cute. I have a variety of doodling styles and I like to keep a diverse selection at my hand for my personal creations.
I hope you enjoy creating to your hearts content with some of my doodles.  But if my images don't suit your personal tastes, I sincerely hope something here inspires you to go create something unique that then puts a smile on another's face.~Laurie Wilson

And our second sponsors....Digis by Kris


And a little bit about them....


 Welcome to Imagine That!...digis by Kris™ and also home of Carly's Cuties™

  We're so glad you're here!!  We're a mother/daughter team bringing you our cutest hand-drawn digital images that you can resize, flip, recolor, print and use in your crafting creations!  This store is brand new and we hope to add lots more digis in the coming weeks/months, so please check back often!

OK, now onto the challenge. We want to see a card or project for a child WITH a sentiment! 

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

Lori

Marsha

Phew!  That is a LOT of inspiration!

So, remember week one of our last challenge we said that a prize had been unclaimed?  We asked you to tell us what to do to improve our challenge blog - we had some great answers...including giving the DT a hug (which has duly been done!).
We have acted on a few of the suggestions already...numbering the challenges so you can keep track, having a pop out comments box, having a top 5 and clearer wording of our challenges.
Some of the others are going to take slightly longer to work on - GDT spots, Sketches, Tutorials among those - we are not promising, but are talking to the team about them.  Keep watching this space!.....
I randomly chose one suggestion (it wasn't "picked", just a random choice) and the winner of the unclaimed prize is.....Gail!  Gail, drop us a quick email - could you make it clear that you are emailing about the unclaimed prize!

Thanks so much for all your suggestions!

This challenge will run until Tuesday, April 9th
