11/29/2011 New Release Tuesday

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JODIE!

When Jodie posted one of the images from this week's new collection for the DT to work with she said, "uploaded an image for the 29th as well.....not sure if youve heard of prim (primitive)....they are kinda odd....lol..." And I swear, I SUH-WEAR, that the very first thing that popped into my mind was a university lecture/slide show on art & archaeology where Dr. D said "As you can see by this ancient cave painting, primitive man was foolhardy enough to face the brunt of an enraged and charging aurochs with nothing but the strength of his erect penis."

As it turns out, Jodie's primitive images are not of the Lascaux variety, but are instead "characterized by a childlike simplicity in its subject matter and technique." Huh, how 'bout that? You do indeed learn something new every day. . .;) Anyway, with that bit of art-babble, let me introduce you to this week's newly released collection at Bugaboo Stamps - Christmas Prim Angels. They're on sale now in our store, and just in time for you to get started on those holiday cards. . .;)
