It's time for some BIG celebrations today and for the rest of the week as BUGABOO is turning 1!!!
If you are simply visiting my blog then great, but you'd be much better off heading over to JODIE'S blog as this post is part of a massive BLOG HOP with loads of treats and goodies. If you arrived here from MIN'S BLOG then you are certainly on the right track.
Today's challenge with BUGABOO is of course a Birthday Theme!!!! You have one week to participate in the challenge for a chance to win a digi prize pack- 7 free images for 1st, 4 free images 2nd and 2 for 3rd. So, for my birthday challenge card, I have used this celebrating JJ image. The floral panels were stamped with a PTI stamp set (Tin Types)
So if you want to make a birthday card to help us celebrate our Birthday then head on over to join in the challenge at CATCH THE BUG. And here's a close up of JJ for you. If you like this image then you could win it simply by commenting on this post - easy peasy:
Not only do I and some of the other design team members have their challenge cards to show you but there's also a load of ideas on how you can use your bugaboo digi images to create an all round party experience. Where do you start when planning a party, well with the invitations! Hows this for some easy invites? The costing for this project is based on getting 2 invites out of each piece of cardstock so they are quite large but you could easily shrink it down and get 4 on a page.
EXTRA, EXTRA, READ ALL ABOUT IT: We will also be having daily challenges starting on Monday! Here's a list of the challenges (you will have one week to complete all five mini-challenges and post on the CATCH THE BUG, so you have this list ahead of time to get started!). The challenges will be put upon each day so that you can link your posts. If you are unsure about joining in, all you need to do is read the prize list below and you'll be so tempted. It really is a GRAND PRIZE:
Monday - Blue & White
Tuesday – Bling
Wednesday – Sketch
Thursday - Birthday
Friday - Anything Goes
Here's what's up for grabs for the hop and for the challenges:
Grand prize winner will get 1 free set per month for one year (to 1 person who does the blog hop and participates in all the challenges)
Other prizes include:
A chance to design a set with the owner
75% off a one time order
Each DT Member will be awarding an image to a person who commented on their hop post
75% off a one time order
Each DT Member will be awarding an image to a person who commented on their hop post

First let me congratulate you on the fantastic job you did on creating the cost sheets that the DT has been using. They are not only designed perfectly, it really helps those of us on a budget to get an idea of what it might cost to try to make the project. Great idea..Perfect execution!
Now about your JJ card, its great! She is such a party diva and you did a great job showing her off!
The AKV invitations are adorable. I love that party table image and really like how you tilted it to give it a more interesting angle.

That's OK - She's just celebrating our first birthday. . .;) Now, it's the one time of year where a big sister has to be nice to her little brother, and so I want to tell you again how much I admire your style and talent. You are simply untouchable when it comes to bold, colorful, graphic projects, and I remain thrilled at the work you do for the DT. Thank you so much for everything that you do for Bugaboo Stamps! MWAH!
