Sweet Sketch Wednesday Sketch #212 Sponsor Bugaboo Stamps


Good morning and welcome to another wonderful Wednesday and another wonderful Sweet Sketch Wednesday.  Wow what a week, you can tell it's winter here in New Zealand.  We've had a lot of rain, hail and winds and in the mountain ranges and parts of the South Island large snow falls.  I didn't realise it was that bad until I saw it on the late news last night.  Thank goodness the shortest day has past and now we're on the up would slopes to Spring.  I was really excited this morning checking out other challenge sites in blogland and found that I won a prize last week over at Love To Create and I was also in the Top 5 in the All Sorts Challenge for my Blue & White China paper pieced Tea Cups.  This weeks card remind's me of those wonderful warm spring days we get.

Congratulations to our winner and to our Top 3 cards, wonderful work ladies.  There are so many great new digital images your using and interesting design papers.  On to this weeks sketch by our own wonderful Sally Dube.

Sketch #212
This sketch isn't hard just remember the shape is an oval and there are two half ovals behind the oval.  
This week the sketch is Easy, Medium and Hard.

Here's my card using our sponsor Bugaboo and the image is 
Flower Girl Pansy 

This week our wonderful sponsor is 
Jodie Mackrell the owner of 
Bugaboo Stamps.


 Jodie Mackrell's Bio

Everything That You Ever Wanted to Know About Bugaboo Stamps: 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.

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

Kathie, love your bright colored card with all those gorgeous flowers. That is a fun image from Bugaboo (I have many images cause I adore them). That floral paper is beautiful to match. We had a down pour of rain and streets were flooding this AM. We were getting between 2-4 inches of rain today and have been getting rain daily for the past several. The temps are around 80 with lots of humidity. We are all getting hit with YUK weather this week. Hang in there- and I hope I won't float await.

NZ winter sounds just like UK summer this year. We've finally had a bit of sun, but it took lomg enough.

Adore your card this week. Your colours are so bright and make me feel a bit brighter too.
