Paper Smooches Sparks Trend Watch December 2012
This month's trend was cameras and polaroids. Funny, I used a polaroid for my last entry card! You are definitely seeing them pop up everywhere! I started off with that cool camera paper from Echo Park, I knew I wanted to use that. I thought about another polaroid, too, but didn't want it to be overkill ;) I used the new PS "Woofers and Tweeters," for the two dogs, "Alphadot" to create my own sentiment, and "Knick Knacks" for the camera image. That cool ticket strip is from Maya Road. I wish it was film, but I thought it looks pretty close! Its hard to tell, but the ticket strip is clear. The cardstock and the double ended banner die are from PTI.
Isn't this challenge fun? You have all week to play along, so check it out here at the Sparks blog. Need more inspiration? Check out the blogs of my fellow DT members, here:

Paper Smooches Sparks Picture Perfect November 2012
Well, I just got my latest installment of brand new Paper Smooches stamps that haven't even been released, yet! The three new sets this month are amazing! I used all 3 on this card. I know you all know I went crazy when I saw there was a dog themed set!! :) The 3 sets I used are called "Woofers and Tweeters" (the dog and owl and paw print in heart), "We Connect" (the "love), and "Flap Happy" ("sending"). This month was a picture challenge. Here's what we were given to work with:
I was inspired by the white "love" on the yellow pillow, with the light red behind it, and then the bold yellow pattern on the chair. I started with the damask patterned paper, and went from there. The paper is all My Mind's Eye (a couple of packs), the cardstock PTI, the twine The Twinery, and pearls from Q&Co. There's plenty of time left to play in the challenge, so go check it out! :) Look for my own DT post this coming Monday, and also the 12 Kits of Christmas post this Friday!

Hambo Hoedown #49
This week, Hambo is sponsoring the Send a Smile 4 Kids blog which is dedicated to collecting and distributing handmade cards to children who are inpatient at Children's Hospitals. Hambo asked us to use this new Bailey image. You know I'm partial since its a dog card :)
I made this card extra cheery since it is a child's themed card. The "woof you" could be either "love you" or "thank you." The patterned paper is leftovers from a pack that Suzanne gave me, but I'm not sure of the company. The banner is made from an EK success punch that a friend gave me for Christmas. The "you" is from a pack of wooden letters that I got on sale at Joanns ages ago.
The little lady bug clothespins I found at work awhile back when I was cleaning out the craft closet, so I'm not sure where they came from, either. The twine is from Martha Stewart.
I used PTI's Mat Stack 5 to cut out the mat and then used SU punches for the circle, scallop, and label punch. I think any kid would definitely smile if they received this card!
My card will be showing up on the Send a Smile 4 Kids blog on Saturday rather than on the Hoedown blog today, so go over and check it out and what the other talented DT members have created! Also, today is the last day to apply to be on the Hambo DT for the next term, and to submit to be a part of the customer blog hop, so don't forget about that!

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:
