Sweet Sketch Wednesday 195 and Bugaboo

Well, I promised an update on our snow storm from last week.  It was a real dud.  Infact, we got more snow on Sunday and it wasn't expected to snow that day. LOL...go figure.
I am a guest designer over at Catch The Bug Challenge Blog for the next few month and got an added bonus by having Bugaboo our Sponsor this week over at
SWEET SKETCH WEDNESDAY. 
How sweet is that.
Here is a bio from Jodi
at
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. 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.

SSW193 and Saturated Canary

 I had way too much fun creating this card.  My granddaughter loves Disneyland and thinks that Minnie Mouse is the best thing going.  When I first saw this image, I knew that I had to color it up.  Isn't she just the cutiest "Mousey Mo"?

Our sponsor this week over at 
SWEET SKETCH WEDNESDAY 
is Krista  
from
Saturated Canary
I adore Krista's images and it is always such a treat to creat with them.

Here is a little about Krista.
My name is Krista Smith. I am the artist behind the Etsy shop, Saturated Canary Digis. I began working in the stamping world about a year ago when I was hired to create rubber designs for the sweet Scottish company, Sugar Nellie. They launched my artwork under the name 'Simply Sassy.' I moved into the digital world just this past month (it's been a super busy month, indeed!). And-- I love it!! There is a little more freedom here, as I can create anything that pops into my head:)! I am so humbled by the artistic talent of the girls coloring in my designs-- it is truly an inspiration! Likewise, I am so thankful for the friendships I've made in this wonderful and lovely crafty community! It's been a true delight! I'd love for you to stop by my challenge/inspiration blog, Saturated Canary Challenge and join in the fun...And, while you're there, click over to my personal blog (Saturated Canary) and introduce yourself! I am a bit eclectic and touch on everything from family (I've got me a great one!) to fashion (obsessed!)...Please say 'hi!'...I'd love to be friends!:)

Our Grand Prize Winner will Recieve: 2 free digis from Krista’s shop
