Here is a little bio about Mary Ellen and Dearie Dolls Digi Stamps

http://deariedollsdigis.blog.com

I have always been a crafter and a stay at home mom that was able to make enough on handmades to help out and still be there for my kids who are all grown now. I have six grandchildren ranging in age from six months up to ten years. I started to draw digis about a year and a half ago. I like to write poetry and have illustrated some of my children's poems.
My digi blog is a place for card makers and others to download free images. I like to tell a little story with most digis and feel that the innocence of children is full of color, imagination and humor and so most of my artwork is a reflection of that. I truly hope that everyone that visits can find something useful and fun.

Prize: Instant Gratification of freebie Dearie Doll images for everyone!!! Please be sure to leave Mary Ellen a sweet comment and let her know you found Dearie Dolls from SSW.

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

Bugaboo

 

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.
