All of these monthly challenges are being generously sponsored by Bugaboo Stamps - a winner will be randomly chosen using random.orghttp://www.random.org/.

Everything That You Ever Wanted to Know About Bugaboo Stamps: A Short Essay
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   at Totally Stampalicious. And finally, join the Bugaboo Stamps DT   for weekly challenges at Catch the Bug

Every month I am joined by a Guest Designer and for May I am pleased to welcome Rose.


Rose writes:

'I am so thrilled that Hazel asked me to be her Guest Designer for this challenge. I love making Christmas cards all year long. My card making obsession began in 2009. I have been happily married to my best friend for 5 years now who supports my paper addiction. I look forward to seeing all your creations for this fun challenge.'

For her first card, Rose has used 'plush reindeer' kindly supplied by Bugaboo Stamps:



And for her second card, Rose has used 'lil snowman' another image supplied by Bugaboo Stamps:

Weekly challenges will continue on my CHNC challenge blog - these usually have a theme - but any card that you enter there can be entered here as well, so you increase your chance of winning a prize. 

And, of course, you can chat about this monthly challenge extra blog on the CHNC facebook page as well - if you haven't joined that yet, please follow the link and 'like' the page.

I look forward to seeing all your Christmas cards - the more you make now the easier life will be when it gets towards November and December - it makes sense!
