How exciting! A Stella Friday Freebie this week.  I just love Stella and I love her quotes.  She is my kind of down to earth, no ifs or buts friend.

This week we have Stella - Clean with Vodka and here is what I have done with her.

Bugaboo Stamps New Release 5th November 2019

Wow, is this new release close to my heart.

Bugaboo Brat Diabetic Boy and Bugaboo Brat Diabetic Girl are now available in the Bugaboo Stamps shop.

I chose to work with Diabetic Boy.  This image came out at the perfect time.  My grandson Adam has had Type 1 Diabetes for the whole of his life.  He has struggled with readings up and down, mostly up.

Lately, at 14, he has really been working on stabilising his sugars and is getting good consistent results.

Grandma and Pop are so very proud of him for these efforts and I wanted to give him something to remind him of how important he is in our lives.

I decided to put the image in a frame to keep in his room, to remind him everyday of how special he is, and something to keep the motivation going so he can continue to get good results.


We love you to the moon and back Adam, you are our Super Hero!

Bugaboo Stamps "Anything Goes'





This Saturday at Catch the Bug Challenge it is "Anything Goes".

Anything Goes, gives you and me a chance to do some Christmas cards.  I have chosen a kitty cat to play with "Make it Snappy - Meowy Christmas". I coloured him in Copics, giving him a Rudolph nose.  I have used a couple of chipboard embellies from Scrapmatts.


I have entered this in The Outlawz Sketch Challenge.

SheepSki Designs November 2019 Blog Challenge No. 32

This month's theme on the blog challenge is "Christmas is Coming".

I just had to make a Christmas card featuring Santa so I printed off my Rudolph's Mischief, not really sure how I was going to tackle this project.  I coloured both images in Copics, then I chose my design papers.  I know most crafters pick the papers first but I don't always do that, mainly because in my large stash I will find something to suit.



I used a square pearlised base card and design paper and decided to hide Rudolph behind a smaller square.  I came up with the sentiment myself to suit the images.  The chipboard bauble is from Scrapmatts and the doily embellishment is an oldie but a goodie from Charms Creations, unfortunately I don't think Charmane is making these at the moment.

Don't forget to use our special discount for SheepSki Designs when you check out all the images and take a look at Rudolph's Mischief .  You get two images for the price of one, what a bargain!

Bugaboo Stamps Friday Freebie 1st November 2019

This Friday's Freebie is "AutumnSign"

I decided to use this in my Happy Planner.  In Australia, Autumn starts on 1st March.  I have placed the image temporarily in this year's Planner, but it will soon take pride of place when I can start getting organised and decorate my 2020 Planner.

Plus I will be looking for matching signs for the other seasons.  Maybe I will go look now over at the Bugaboo Shop


Well I found a Summer sign in the shop.  That will get me started;  as a matter of fact I can use that this year and next as our Summer starts on 1st December.

Hope you enjoyed  my bit of trivia on Australian seasons!


By the way, keep your eye out for our Holiday Chaos starting 14th December in the Bugaboo Stamps Fan Club Group on Facebook



It is going to be utter CHAOS.  Can't wait to celebrate the Holiday Season with Bugaboo!
