Hello!

A very warm welcome to our February challenge.

The theme here at Crafts Galore Encore is always
Anything Goes and you can enter up to 3 different projects.
This month we are sponsored by the fabulous Bugaboo Digital Stamps.

Thank you to everyone who found time to join our January challenge. We had some fabulous entries and it is always a pleasure to see what everyone has been creating. The DT had a difficult time selecting favourites!

Sadly, Monika has decided to step down from the DT in order to have more time for other pursuits and to take care of her health. We will miss Monika's beautiful pencil work and lovely card designs, but we thank her for her contributions to our challenge blog and wish her well in her new endeavours!

Now onto this month's challenge:

This month we are sponsored by the wonderful Jodie from Bugaboo Digital Stamps. Jodie is offering our winner a $12 coupon code for the Bugaboo Digital Stamps shop.

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 seven 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!

We hope you can find some crafty time to enter our challenge this month. We're look forward to seeing your anything goes projects!

Enjoy the following inspiration from the DT.

Happy creating!

Carole, Jackie and the CGE DT
