"Masculine Theme" 

Challenge # 9

Wow it's March already! That means my son's 6th birthday is right around the corner. 

In honor of my little one's b-day we have decided to do a masculine theme challenge. 

I know I always have a hard time making a masculine card

 so I can't wait to see some great inspiration from all of you guys. 

Our sponsor this month is Buagboo and they are giving away 7 FREE DIGI'S!!!! Woohoo!

We are proud to be sponsored by Bugaboo stamps

Here is a little information on Bugaboo's History:

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 paper crafting 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 at  Totally 

Stampalicious. And finally, join the Bugaboo Stamps DT  for weekly challenges at Catch the Bug!

Our wonderful DT has created some really awesome projects 

that I know will definitely bring some inspiration.
