Good-bye to Dawn Rene & Welcome back to Dorcas!!! ♥

 

It's Monday, Every-Buggy...

and a sad Monday for us here at Lovebug Creations...

Today we say good-bye to Dawn Rene.

She has been with the Creative Team for over a year now and we will miss her greatly! Hopefully we will continue to see projects from her! She is a uniquely talented lady who has inspired all of us!!

I went back to her blog and found the first official Lovebug Creations post just for fun! Here was Dawn Rene's First Post...

 

 

And here's her final post...

 

Dawn Rene here today to share a Happy Birthday card I made using three colors of Mama's Mesh to create a beautiful ruffle! I love the colors blue, green and purple together. The mesh ruffle is topped off with lace, white gingham, and a button. The background is dry embossed and slightly sanded. The "Happy Birthday" stamp is from Close to My Heart!

Thank you Dawn Rene for the wonderful friendship and talent you've shown us!!! We will truly miss you!!!

And on a happier note...

Dorcas is back!!! YAY!!!

Hello! Dawn Rene here to share another Julie Nutting Mixed Media doll tag. I promise this will be the last one for a while! I used FOUR different Lovebug Creations products on this tag.

I stamped the Prima doll stamp with black ink and colored her body with Copic markers. Her clothes, shoes, and hair band are paper pieced with BoBunny papers. She has a Lovebug Creations Beautiful Blooms in her hair! I made a multi-layer butterfly with a Sizzix die - the top layer is Mama's Mesh. The sheer ribbon and rumple ribbon adorn the top of the tag!

Stacey

Happy Mama's Mesh Monday!!

Hi everyone!

Orange seems to be the color I'm loving lately.  I created this cute card and thought I'd share it for Mama's Mesh Monday.  I used the Mama's Mesh from the Halloween set.  It blends perfectly with the Chevron paper, doesn't it?

Please stop by my blog for more details.

Dawn Rene

Dawn Rene here with you to share an easy DIY home decor project - a ribbon wrapped candle. I wrapped Lovebug Creations' Mama's Mesh around a white candle. Then I tied Lovebug Creations' Sheer Ribbon in a bow on top of the mesh. Simple and elegant!

Stacey

Hi there!

Stacey from Stacey's Creative Corner

here to show you another project that uses that fun Mama's Mesh!

Since it is still so cold almost everywhere, I decided to make this cute little card.

For my bow, I used some Mama's Mesh from the Merry Mesh Collection.

I love how versatile Mama's Mesh is!

You can use it for a accent or make it your focal point, the sky is the limit!

Hi there!

Stacey from Stacey's Creative Corner

here to show you my Mama's Mesh project for this week.

For my project, I cut this box out of the Silhouette Online Store and then embellished it by making this pretty little flower out of some of that Awesome Mama's Mesh!

For my flower, I used some Rosebud Mama's Mesh and some Merry Mesh for the leaves. 

I also used some Purple-dise Rumple Ribbon to tie my box shut.

I just got done making 25 bows for my daughter's cheearleading squad. So I thought I would try to make a bow with Lovebug Creations' Mama's Mesh. Simple, fun, and girly!

Dorcas

I am loving this weather we've been having in South Florida lately.  The cool weather gives me a chance to sit indoors and play with paper and ribbon and come up with all sorts of goodies.

This week's Mama's Mesh is green!  I wanted to make a special birthday card for a friend and found the perfect combination of Mama's Mesh and patterned paper.  Exciting!  I also used George and Halloween Grunge rumple ribbon to make it all beautiful!  Hope to see you on my Blog!!

Hi there!

Stacey from Stacey's Creative Corner

here to show you my project for this week.

When the weather gets cold, I turn to my other favorite pastime (besides papercrafting) and that is reading. I love to read and if I am not at my desk crafting, you can find me buried in a book.

I decided to make myself another bookmark. 

For my project, I used some Hallo-Mesh

Happy New Year everyone!!!  I still can't believe we are in 2014!  Time seems to fly lately.

The older I get, the more forgetful I become.  I thought it would be a good idea to make myself a little notebook to keep in my purse to jot things down.  I used White Mama's Mesh on this super easy project. Please be sure to visit my blog for more photos and details.

Thanksgiving is just a week away!  EEK!  I have been toying with different ideas for place cards and this is a great one.   I used Mama's Mesh, which is one of my favorite products.  These place cards are super easy to make.  They measure 4" x 2.5".  I really like how this turned out.  Please be sure to visit my blog for more details on how they were made.
