Happy Birthday Timbo Blog Hop

Happy Birthday to Timbo, the man behind the pen at Hambo Stamps!
The Bacon Bits are surprising Tim with a little birthday fun today and we would love to have you join us in celebrating!
If you arrived from Stephanie's Blog, you are in the right place. If you just happened by, be sure to start at Karin's blog for the whole story and to have a chance at winning the birthday prize!

Each of the DT members were assigned a different animal from the Farm Animals pack, and asked to write a little story to tell what that animal was doing on their way to Timbo's party

On the way to the Hambo Farm for Timbo's birthday bash, Farm dog got to ride in the family spaceship, called Jeep. It is blue, and huge, and only opens when mom presses the remote control button. He loves riding in it because the smells are 1000x better than they are in his backyard. And they all come at him at 25 miles an hour! When the spaceship is going faster, and the windows are closed, he still likes to sniff the air coming out of the vents. Who knew the ride could get more exciting, until they stopped and they were at PetCo! Talk about smell Heaven! Every corner has the glorious scent of another dog. Farm dog could spend hours here! After getting his fill of smells, Farm dog headed to the raw hide aisle to get his favorites for Timbo. Then back into spaceship and wait...SQUIRREL! Farm dog must always stop and bark at squirrels. As they finally pulled up to the farm, Farm dog smelled even better smells than PetCo! There were new, bigger, stinkier smells. As he followed the scent trail, it lead him to the man of the hour, the owner of the Pig Pen, himself, Timbo! And from then on, the "shower" of kisses (licks) commenced. Happy Birthday, Tim :)

This card uses Farm dog from Hambo. Isn't he just adorable? I colored him with Copics, and then punched him out with a SU circle punch. I layered that on PTI's Mega Mat Stack 3, cut from SU DSP. Then layered that on PTI's Men of Life patterned paper, on top of PTI Aqua Mist cardstock.

The "woof" is from a pack of chipboard letters and the cute dog bone paper clip is from Recollections. The twine is from the Twinery.

I am very pleased with this card, I think it is adorable!


Now off to Michele's blog, where you can see what happens next at Timbo's Birthday Bash! If you get lost, here is the order of birthday fun:
