CAS Hoedown

This week's Hambo Hoedown challenge is to use any Hambo image rubber or digital to make a CAS (clean and simple) design I used the digi image Microphone that I received free for playing in last week's challenge. Here's my card...

 

I colored Microphone with my C1, 3, 5, 7 and Y 13, 15, 17 Copics For fun I added a gold brad and a red and white twine cord. This was a fun card to make and I enjoyed making a CAS design.

Happy Birthday PTT!

It's Party Time Tuesdays' 3rd birthday! To celebrate,  the challenge this week is to use the number three or three of something on your project. Here's my card...

I used the three cute bees and sentiment from the Bee Happy set by There She Goes Clear Stamps. TSGCS is one of the sponsors for the challenge this week. If you're not familiar with their stamps, hop on over and check them out...very cute stamps.

Happy Birthday PTT!

A LittleThumbthing

Hip Hip Hooray! I had time to play at the Hambo Hoedown this week. The challenge was to use metal on whatever you created. So I looked through my stash and found some metal bottle top magnets. Here's what I came up with ...

 

 

 

 

 Here's a close-up of the bottle cap magnet. 

 

I used Hambo's Fingerprint  and Thumb Thing stamps. Yes it is a stamp and not my thumbprint! For the facial features I used stamps from the Stampin'Up set Make a Monster. I drew on the hands and feet. After I punched out the image I put a clear circle sticker on top of it and attached it inside the bottle cap with a 1 " pop dot. I attached the finished bottle cap to the tag with a glue dot so that it can be removed and used as a magnet.

 

Love & Romance

It's time for Love & Romance over on Party Time Tuesdays challenge blog. I used The Digi Garden image Ursula's Big Heart to make my card for the challenge...

 

 

 

 

The paper piercing template came from Fred She Said and it fit's Stampin'Up's Top Note Die perfectly. Join the challenge and show us some love and romance.

Anything Goes @ Party Time Tuesdays

This week's challenge at Party Time Tuesdays is Anything Goes! I need a birthday card for a friend so I used this cute mouse and cheese stamp by Hambo Stamps to make this card...

 

 

I wanted the background to look like Swiss cheese, so I punched the card stock with different size hole punches. Then I sponged around the holes to give it some depth. The image, Say Cheese, is colored with Copics. I just love the sentiment, Cheese, Louise. I used another Hambo sentiment, Another Birthday? inside. It says "Another birthday? Didn't you just have one last year?"

 

I hope you'll join us over at PTT and share with us your Anything Goes creations.

Going Round @ the Hoedown

The Hoedown challenge this week is to use a Hambo digi image or stamp to make a circle shaped card that has spirals or swirls somewhere on it. I used Penguins and Have an Ice Day to make a telescoping circle card. Here it is closed...

 

and here it is opened...

 

 

Can you find where I used swirls? The snow is dry embossed with swirls and there's a swirl brad on the front. It was a fun card to make and perfect for the cold weather we've been having here in Maryland.

 

Matching Card & Envelop

The Party Time Tuesdays challenge this week is to decorate an envelop or make a card and decorate a matching envelop. I used the Border of Blooms by this week's sponsor, Floppy Latte Digital Designs, to make a card & matching envelop. Here's the front of the envelop with the matching card...

 

Here's the back of the envelop with the  matching card...

 

 

I cased the layout for my card from Andrea Wolford of The Paper Craft Library. I like the image and sentiment on a slant and the clean and simple look of the white on white. The image is colored with Copics - RV22, 24, 25 and G21 & 24. To make the medallion to seal the envelop, I colored and cutout one of the flowers from the image and glued it to a gold sticker that I found in my stash.

 

Join the PTT challenge and show us what you can do with an envelop.
