Spring Celebrations New Release and Blog Hop

***IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR THE FLEURETTE BLOOM/LOVEBUG CREATIONS BLOG HOP CLICK HERE!!!!!

 

Welcome to LoveBug Creations Spring Celebrations 

New Release and Blog Hop!!

Spring is a time for Easter and Mother's Day events but it also signals weddings, graduations, family reunions, and more.  LoveBug Creations has some new awesome products to unveil today for your spring celebrations.

  So do you want to add something special to your handmade projects?? If so, consider these new springtime collections for your crafting arsenal of rumple ribbon delights:

Peach Blossom, Buttercup, Dahlia

Garden Green, Spring Lilac, Blue Bells

And for something different, we are releasing the beautiful Mama's Roses.  

Each rose is hand-formed and hand-dyed; each has dimensions of  2"x 2" and can be used as is or inked, painted, stickled, and more - your imagination can provide lots of possibilities for these beauties - and they are feather-light so you can create lots of projects from layouts to cards to tags to mixed media creations to 3-D creations and more and not feel there's an anchor on your project, weighing it down!

And if that isn't enough... We've got 4 NEW Mama's Mesh Colors: Kraft, Ivory, Light Blue & Light Pink!!!

Also Mama's Mesh is now being offered to buy by the yard as opposed to in collections! Awesome!

So settle back as we take you on a tour of spring celebrations and invite you to visit our LBC ONLINE STORE

Mama LoveBug is up first to share several wedding tags (The Tag, The New Greeting Card); yesterday I shared several wedding tags in our co-hop with Fleurette Bloom so I was in the mood to continue with that theme for our spring celebrations. Couldn't you see these framed as a lovely treasure for a wedding gift or using the smaller tag below, placing it on a wedding plate or on an easel next to the guest book.......the possibilities are endless!

What's Mew with Dawn Mercedes ♥

I used Simply White Rumple Ribbon and Black Mama's Mesh 

for this feline friendly card!

I just love how the Mama's Mesh gives a little color, a lot of texture...

but it still keeps everything light and open!

If you want to know "what's mew" with Lovebug Creations, slink back over here on Sunday for our Spring Release.

But remember, tomorrow (Saturday) is our blog hop with Fleurette Blooms!

 

Connie's Camo Wine Glass ♥

Hello fellow Lovebugs!!

Connie Can Crop 

here with a new project to share using my favorite LoveBug Creations Products!!

 

 

My friend Angie just turned 40 and she celebrated by having an all girl wine and appetizer party. I couldn't think of a better gift than a custom wine glass just for Angie in her favorite colors. She can always cherish this glass decorated beautifully with some retired Camo Fun Footz and White Simply Sheer Ribbon.

Happy 40th Birthday Angie!

Please stop by my blog to read more details and see more pics of this and other projects using LBC products. Become my follower, join in my monthly challenges or just come hang out at

Gift ideas with Stephanie & Katie ♥

Hey every"buggy"! I am here today to share a quick treat box that I made for the office secretary at my kids' school. She has been such a huge help to me with various projects, that I wanted to give her a little something.

I bought these pillow boxes at Target. Then I took a chipboard flower & covered it with rumple ribbon in Panther Pink and then topped that off with a bow in William from the Family Ties collection. It's pretty simple but hopefully she will love the little treat today!

You can see more about this on my blog.

Thanks for letting me share!

 

Katie

This week I have the matching gift bag to the boat card from a few weeks ago.  Don't you just love the Mama's Mesh bow and Caddy Blue Rumple Ribbon!!  Stop by the blog, I would love to hear from you.

 

Kristi's Happy Birthday with Hugs Simply Sheer Ribbon ♥

Hello Lovebuggies! Kristi here again from Little Paper Sprinkles! 

Today my project is a little different than what I usually do, I wanted to work with a tag today!

I used the super pretty Simply Sheer Ribbon HUGS!

 Super fun and simple card!
