Huge News!!!

I'm very stoked to announce that I have been asked to be the newest Design Team member for Hambo Stamps! I love their stamps and sentiments! They bring out the silly side of me! (Although it's not too far from the surface anyways! ;) They are original, funny, and SO much fun to color! Thank you so much, Monica, for this opportunity! (Okay, enough gushing!!!)

This toucan image is just too stinkin' cute, and when you add the sentiment, it's irresistible! I colored him with my Copic markers, and mounted him on a couple of scallop circles I created with my new set of QuicKutz dies. (More on the dies later.) I used some new PP that I found at my LSS, by Deja Views. I love it! I bought two of the three colorways that they offered, and I love them both - so colorful and fun! Also, I made this card a 6 1/2 x 3 1/4 size to fit my underused envies that I had to have. I love this size, I just forget to use it!

One more exciting thing about Hambo is that, for their Newsletter Subscribers, there is a Secret Sale that begins today and runs through Aug. 14th. It includes several of their wonderful stamps for at least 50% off! However, this promotion is not open to the public, but is offered only to their Subscribers. You can sign up here to take advantage of the sale!

And about the dies...
They are part of the new QuicKutz Cookie Cutter line, and my set is called Scallop Flowers. It includes 6 different dies. The sizes are approx. 3 5/8, 2 7/8, 2 3/8, 1 3/4, 1 1/8, and 1/2. They are somewhat similar to the ones offered by Spellbinders, only there are less of them, do not come with the solid circles, and do not emboss. They are, however, far less expensive. Okay, so they just LOOK like the Spellbinders dies! LOL Anyway, I thought I'd give you a little info on a cool new product I discovered. I'll probably still end up with most of the other Spellbinder sets, but this circle one should tie me over for the time being! ;)

Stay tuned for more Hambo cards, though for tomorrow, I've got a little MFT Christmas card that I think you'll like! See you then!

xox,
Kirsten
