Do Penguins Hop?


I can't believe it is April already! March seemed to fly by and it is time for week 10 over at the Hambo Hoedown! For those of you who played along last week and got this adorable Penguin Bunny, you will have so much fun with this cutie! If you didn't get the chance to play along, you can get him over in the digi shop at Hambo Stamps!

This week, in addition to using this adorable image, the challenge is to create an easel card. I have seen these everywhere, but I have not made one myself. It was SUPER EASY! I will have to use this more often! It would be a great card to give someone-cause they can display it easily on a desk or any other surface!

The designer papers are from My Mind's Eye-Fine and Dandy Collection. I also used some of the Celery Sheer Pinstripe ribbon I got from Hambo Stamps. I have had this letter tiles for a LONG time, and finally decided to part with three so that I could add a sentiment to the card! I also got wild and wacky with my white gel pen on this one... I used a LOT of my spica marker for the ears and tail...you can even see it this time!

Wait until you see all of the awesome creations from the other Bacon Bits! You will be amazed!
