That was two years ago.

 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 challenge for you this week is Spring Has Sprung!  Our DT has some lovely creations to share with you as well as a card from Bugaboo DT member Sammibug.
