Hear Ye, Hear Ye!!!!

"I Have An Announcement!" That is the challenge for this week's Hambo Hoedown #12. We were to use this adorable King digi-image and put our own "announcement" on the banner. I'm not very good with altering digi-images, yet, but I'm learning...it took me a while to figure out how to "write" inside the banner but then I couldn't figure out how to make it bigger. Oh, well..


Inside of card:
I made this card for a co-worker who will be turning 50 next month. I hope she likes it!! I can see this image being used a lot for engagements, births, moving, etc. What fun!


Another of the Meade Girls was chosen to be an Honorary "Bacon Bit" (that's what Hambo's design team is called!) over at the Hambo Hoedown challenge blog this week!! Last week it was Gloria, and this week it's Paula!! Check out Paula's blog here!

Stamps: King from Hambo Stamps, crown from Bombshell Stamps
Cardstock: Real Red, Basic Black, Sahara Sand (Stampin' Up!), GP110 white
Patterned Paper: from a Christmas pack of DSP from Stampin' Up!
Accessories: Copic Markers, red stick-on gems (Bling-IT from Basic Grey), pop dots

This card was also submitted for the following challenges:


A Spoofull of Sugar Challenge # 148- "Let's Celebrate!"


Cupcake Craft Challenges #138- "Lots of Layers"

    The banner is cute. I'm not even good at downloading digis so you are one up on me.

    Hi Mary! At least you figured out how to "write" inside the digi; I tried but couldn't get it to work. Argh. So you're way ahead of me. I love your card, and how you decorated the inside, too. Fab!
