Wow. Yeah. I should stick with just making cards instead of trying for great titles. That was pretty bad, I will agree! HA! But it should give you a clue for our challenge today!
YEP! We are making EASEL CARDS! For the artist in all of us - a sweet card to display your artistic endeavors. If you have never made an easel card before, you are going to love them. They are very EASE-y to do, especially if you have great instructions. Read on for who, what, when and where!
Thank you to EVERYONE that participated in our April Fools' Blog Hop last Friday. We had a lot of fun and we hope you did too. Winners are posted at Talk to the Ham! Mark your calendars for MAY 20, when we are having a customer blog hop that you can participate in too! FUN STUFF!

Today's challenge is brought to you by Penguin Bunny! It's Easter Time! Penguin Bunny is all decked out ready to deliver his pretty egg to someone special! Challenge: Using Penguin Bunny, make an EASEL card.
Click HERE for some FABULOUS written instructions (which also includes the video), and click HERE for an amazing video, both by Beate Johns of Splitcoaststampers, and you will make your card with the greatest of ease! There are many other wonderful instructions and videos on the internet as well, and google will help you find those!

Here is one of my favorite cards that PeggySue has made for past Hoedowns:
Everyone that followed last week's challenge, linked a card to the blog post and emailed us a photo of their card received this week's challenge image FREE! So check your mailboxes! If you didn't get your card linked in time or forgot to email us (the deadline is always 10 PM CST Tuesday night before the new challenge), you can still play along. Use ANY Hambo image on your project - just make sure you follow the theme! Link up, email us, and you will be back in the loop for the next free image!
Check out what Hannah made using Silly Birds With Hats. Aren't they neat with all the different colors?

I am so happy to finally be using this image for an easel card. I love Wee Henry.
Really fun challenge with such a cute digi, thanks :)
I've only made one other easel card .. this should be fun
thanks for the challenge and the digi!
Maybe next week I'll surprise everyone and read the directions BEFORE I make the card. ;/
Thank you for this challenge: I've learnt how to make an easel card and it's very easy! The penguin-bunny is lovely!
I apologize- I'm just not going to get my easel card done. This week has been CRAZY and it's just gotten away from me! I have my image colored and still plan on completing the challenge, but it just won't count. I'll definitely be in the hoedown again next week!
