Bugaboo Stamps 6th Annual Birthday Bash - Day 7 Freebie Friday & Recipe

Happy Friday friends and followers!
Have you been playing along with each of the daily
challenges this week of the 6th Annual Birthday Bash?

We have reached DAY 7 of the celebration and we have
an adorable FREEBIE that you can use with the final challenge.

Here's the challenge (see below)


and here's my DT card using the FREEBIE image and the recipe

Let's see: 1 animal - check!

2 layers (doily and main image circle) - check!

and 3 buttons - check, check, check! 

 I wasn't so sure I could pull off a card with only 2 layers.  

It's very difficult for me to wrap my brain around and 

actually put together (the only more difficult style for 

me is a one layer card).  But hey...isn't that what challenges 

are for, to stretch your creative talents a bit?   I gotta tell

you that I'm quite pleased with myself and how this turned out. 

I'd like to enter this in the following challenges:

Fab N Funky Challenges #288 - Buttons or Bows or Both

Robyn's Fetish Challenge #299 - Animals

Ruby's Rainbow Challenge #121 Animal Magic

Simon Says Wednesday Challenges - Create with a Critter

Seize the Birthday Challenges - Topping Option Clean and Simple

There's a few hours left in the challenges.  If you have 

participated in ALL the daily challenges you have the opportunity

to WIN a fabulous GRAND PRIZE.  There are also some

great daily prizes that you can win too.  But only if you play along!

Click here for specifics on the prizes. 

Thanks so much for helping us celebrate the Big 6th Birthday!

I hope you've enjoyed this week of creations as much as I have!

Check back next week for the prize notifications.

Bugaboo Stamps 6th Annual Birthday Bash - Welcome to the Jungle {Photo Inspiration}

Hello! Have you been playing along with the fun challenges

so far this week for at Catch the Bug Challenges for

the 6th Annual Birthday Bash??!

It's been a week of wild fun - as in a Jungle/Zoo Theme :o)

Today's challenge is to make a creation based on this 

photo (scrapbook page, frame, card, tag, cake toppers, etc.)

Is this just adorable or what?

What inspiration do you take from this? 

I saw a new baby shower or celebration so I made

a card featuring a couple of the adorable images

from Mini Set - Critter Blocks.

I've noticed that jungle themed baby decorations are very trendy
right now.  I love that the colors are so bright and cheery and
can be used for boys or girls.  In this case I made a card for
a boy as I am behind in sending a card to a family member
who had a precious little son not long ago.  Hope they like it!

I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:
Simon Says Wednesday Challenges - Create with a Critter
Ruby's Rainbow Challenge #121 Animal Magic
Robyn's Fetish Challenges #299 - Animals
Crafting from the Heart Challenge #95 - anything goes

I hope that you've been playing along with us this week.

for details and links to each of the daily challenges.

This is a big event so there are some big prizes up for grabs, 

I hope you have time to join us for the week! 

 The rules are simple, please create a Birthday project fitting

 each theme of the day and add it to the inlinkz per day.

   You can enter once or you can enter each day to increase your chances.
