And Best in Show goes to...

Me! I was chosen this week for Hambo Hoedown's Best in Show. Yippee! As you know I play every week and have a blast! I get to put this cute little badge on my blog

Here is the card I won for.

Thanks Hambo for picking me :)

Clear it Out Challenge Time

It's time to use up red supplies at the Clear it Out Challenge blog.

Sassy Studio is sponsoring us for an anything goes challenge.

I was given this image to use and I LOVE it!

This card has an insert so I could add a gift card inside for my son's teacher. To make it I simply took the width of the gift card and added about 1/4 inch (slightly wider than the width of my tape) to it. Taped all 3 sides and slide the card in. Voila, easy peasy. In the past I have used photo corners- that will hold it in place too.

I'd also like to enter this into the Digi Darla Challenge. Thanks for stopping by.

Hola! It's Hambo Hoedown time!

This week at the Hambo Hoedown it's retro 80's time. That's right, it's time to bust out the NEON!!
At the DYSU challenge, we are to use brads so I combined the two challenges :)

As you may know I am trying to use up my stash so I thought I was in trouble for this challenge, until I found some neon paper. Who knew it was lurking in my paper stash!

I used the Hambo Stamps Image 'Catcus'.

I ran my paper through the big shot and added dots to the background. The brads were added (yes I even found neon green brads!) Then I coloured it with my copics.

Thanks for stopping by :)

It's Hambo Time!

It's Hambo Hoedown time AND a wicked sale over at Hambo Stamps!

This week at the Hoedown we are to use hexagons. I frantically searched my stash to find anything hexagony-ish (is that a word? lol) I found this lovely paper and went to work.

I used the adorable digital stamp 'Bailey Flower by Hambo Stamps. '

So what is this wicked sale I speak of? Check it out here
Have a great day!

Pollycraft Design your own stamp

A while back Jellypark asked it's followers to suggest a digi. If yours was picked you won the digi for free.
I had suggested making a person for a symapthy card. I often find when you look at the digi shops under 'sympathy' there are butterflies or birds, rarely sad looking people.

I'm not sure that is exactly what they were hoping for but guess what....

they chose my idea! Isn't she lovely? It also came with 3 sentiments; thinking of you, sending you a hug, and sorry to hear your news. Perfect.

So thank you very much Jellypark

I think you did an amazing job :)

Have a wonderful day, thanks for stopping by

It's Hambo Hoedown Time

It's time once again for another weekly challenge at the Hambo Hoedown! This week's challenge is to use their digi called 'Cells' and use circles.

I googled mason jars and found this clip art jar. I cut it out 3 times. Once in the shape of the card. Once for the blue card stock (with circles) and the third time with acetate. (which I might add is uber hard to photograph!)

I sponged the edges with blue ink, coloured the cells with copics and laid them under the acetate. I then added a ribbon and circle tag to complete the card.
It really does look cuter in person. I so need a new camera (hint hint Santa!)
Thanks for stopping by :)
