Hambo challenge: pop up

Here is my contribution to the

Hambo Hoedown 

with Wee Henrietta Popcorn

that you can find here.

The idea for this pop up card came in my mailbox.

It is the new tutorial on Splitcoaststampers and you can find it her:

http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/resources/tutorials/modifiedtri-shuttercard/

So not only the images pop up (using foam tape)

but the whole card is popping up.

Besides using background papers

and Tim Holtz filmstrip die for decoration,

I also used some washi tape

to make the background interesting.

When you fold the card it will look like this

and fits a regular 4x6 envelop.

 

Thanks Hambo for the fun image and 

fun challenge again! It always tickles

my creative mind.

Have a creative day!

Hambo Hoedown: decorative scissors

Here is my entry for Hambo Hoedown blog.

The challange this week is

to use your decorative scissors.

 

Can you see I have been using

3 different kinds?

 

For this card I used their

Hamster Heart image

 that you can find here.

 

I colored the hamster with pencils

very softly. I used to have a hamster as a child

and it was so much fun to play with him.

 

Have a creative day!

Thanks again to Hambo for sending

the free image to play with.

This time we have this wonderful 

SCHOOL DOG and the

challange is to make a school themed

card or project.

Well, this time i made a cards and a project.

Here is the card.I used some background paper

I made my own with my new gelli plate.

Found some cute pictures I had in my

stash to add to the dog image

that I colored with pencil.

Here also a picture of the inside of the card.

I could not throw away the left over paper!

I also came up with this fun door-hanger.

It is the shape of a pencil to hang on your

child's door when he/she is out to school.

I enlarched the dog to fit with the size of the

pencil (4"x 7").

Here you see it when it hangs on the door.

The image of the dog is colored here 

with distressmarkers.

Have a creative day!

Hambo challenge 128: Carpenter

Here is my card for the 

Hambo Hoedown challenge

using things a carpenter would use.

We got this wonderful digital stampset of

the carpenter from playing last week.

If you like this image,you can find it HERE.

For my card, I used 2 pieces of real wood

in card size and drilled two holes in it.

With a blender tool and walnut stain distress ink

I colored around the borders of the card.

I found a hammer and nails stamp in my stash

and stamped thes on the background of my card.

For decoration I used some floor plan scrap paper, 

metallic mesh, black brads

and thin wire around the card.

for the inside i also used the messh, some brads,

a piece of silver embossed paper and one of 

the sentiments that came with this set.

Here you see the finished card.

It is held together with some workmen's string.

The carpenter is colored with pensil and the sentiments

are stick with double sided tape to the background.

I found I had a hamer and nail button that I could use. 

Thanks for looking!

Have a creative day!

 the punched out balloons.

ast week from Hambo. if you like it too

you can find it HERE.

Have a creative day!
