Hambo Hoedown #41

This week's challenge was to use the Camera Guy digi stamp and to use a frame somewhere on your card. The challenges at the Hambo Hoedown are a lot of fun, and you get a free digi stamp out of them! You should definitely try playing along. Check it out here.

I knew right away when I saw a person behind the camera that I wanted to give this card to my mom for her birthday, because she is always attached to her camera! I colored the camera guy with Copics, and made the frame with four thin sheets of cardstock glued together and popped off the page with foam tape.

These arrows are from a SU punch. The patterned paper is from PTI's Men of Life pack. The twine is from the Twinery. When she read the sentiment, she totally loved it!

I made this card larger than my usual A2 size. Its actually 5 1/2 by 5 1/2. When she opened it, it was funny, she was like "this is big!" She really liked it, though. I just got back last night from my trip to FL to meet my niece, so check back tomorrow to see pics and to hear how my trip did not turn out at all as planned.

  2. This is really bright and fun. Your camera man just jumps right out at you with his red shirt - perfect!

  3. Love this! I'm always the one with my camera, but this little guy reminds me of my G'pa. I might have to do a fun memory scrapbook page with it!!
