Whee..............

I have made this card for todays CAS251 bling it up challenge over at Splitcoaststampers.  The photo doesn't do the blinginess of this card justice. It is really sparkly with all those gems on.... lovingly placed on one by one.... phew!! The blue background paper has irridescent spray on it, the girl's fur is glittered up, and the snowflake is silver glitter card, so.... Blinding!! Who doesn't love a bit of bling, especially at this festive time of year!?!
 
I have used the SKATER GIRL rubber stamp by Hambo Stamps. The Whee... wording is the first line of the Whee wish you.. rubber stamp. I just masked the rest of the wording...wish you a season of joy!....and stamped it on the inside.

This is actually the first Christmas card I have made this year, what with my gorgeous Grandson being born last week, I have not been able to concentrate on much else, so I think it is me that is going to have to get my skates on!!!

If you get YOUR skates on you will still have time to join in with our bookmark challenge that is ongoing at the moment until 10:00pm CST this evening and the winner will be announced here on Wednesday. Check out the deets HERE!

It's Week 2 for CAS!

Welcome to the Hambo Hoedown! 

It's Week 2 for our current challenge! Read on:

Our Hoedown Challenge is a twice-a-month challenge, on the first and third Wednesdays of each month. Participants can use ANY image to play along, as long as the challenge requirement is met. So that means more time to play and create something fantastic to share!

Two winners will be chosen from each challenge, Best in Show, and a random Queen of the Hoedown. Those winners will each receive a Hambo digital image as their prize, as well as a fun badge for their blogs. You can see the winner for our last challenge HERE.
   
The Hoedown Challenge is open to ALL images, from any company, digital or rubber. Our prize winners, however, will be chosen from those using Hambo images. So ANYONE is welcome to play with ANY image for fun. Come join us!

Our challenge for Hoedown #137 is to create a CAS design - in other words, CLEAN AND SIMPLE.  Lots of open space, not a lot of embellishments and clutter, just all about the design. 

We have some Hambo friends, as well as some of the Bacon Bits DT, on hand to show you their interpretations of CAS:

Former Bacon Bits DT member Jan Hunnicutt using Skater Girl (4311)

Hambo friend Lisa Lara using Bird Balloon

Bacon Bits DT member Lyn using Heart Basket

Bacon Bits DT member Jane using Nun and.....

...using Bird Egg and Big Giraffe (5116)!

Aren't they amazing?

Again, you can use ANY image to play along. Those using Hambo images are in the running for our prizes!
