Groovy...

The little girls are so into the 70's things right now so when I saw this image I thought it would make a perfect 70's birthday card for a special little girl.

So groovy... :)  the image is a tickled pink image called lil fashionette 60's willow.

Hambo Hoedown House Challenge

It is time for another hoedown!  This week's hoedown is to use the house digi and add something from your home you wouldn't ordinarily add to a card.  

For my household item, I added staples... for the little stones leading up to the front porch of the house.  It is not an item I would normal put on a card.  I went a little crazy with the flowers on this card but this time of the year is so fun with all the pretty fall colors.  Take care.

Hambo Hoedown - household item
die cut dreams - flower power

I want candy...

Hambo Hoedown Hop - "Sing Your Art Out"

Welcome to "Sing Your Art Out" sponsored by Hambo Stamps! Today Hambo friends, customers, and the Bacon Bits Design Team are bringing you fun creations that depict song titles! It might be our favorite song, or just one that was fun to design. If you arrived here from Debbie - http://inklingtostamp.blogspot.com/ you are in the right place! If not, you might want to start back at the beginning at the Hambo blog to make sure you are eligible for the hopper prize!
A prize will be awarded to one participant whose song-themed creation tickles the Bacon Bits’ fancy in a singin' wingin' way!  Another prize will be awarded randomly to a hopper who comments on all the blogs along the hop. The winners will be announced on the Hoedown blog, as well as on the Hambo company blog, Talk to the Ham, on Wednesday, September 21. 

My creation is "A Spooky Wall hanging"!  I am so excited to show this to you all! My kids and their friends gave me a "that's cool" when they saw this wall hanging so who could ask for more.  :)  I have been working on this ever since Monica posted that their would be a customer blog hop!  Thanks Monica for the fun hop!  Can you guess what song I was going for with this project??

The song I was going for is "Monster Mash"!  I thought is was a perfect song to go with all the cool Hambo Halloween Monster images.  They are just SPOOKY!  LOL  Their are six panels and a fun Hambo image is on each panel.  In our house Halloween is huge so this will be used every year!  I hope you like it and get inspired to create something fun for your own home.
