Shiver Me Timbers

Yo Ho Ho and a digital stamp. Since I didn't want to walk the plank, I played along with the challenge at the Hambo Hoedown.  This week's digi is "Pirate" and the challenge was to add a "map"".  And being that the image is a pirate and I'm from Pittsburgh, of course the map I used is "downtown Pittsburgh".

I popped up the image and sentiment on foam squares. I inked the edges of the map and sentiment panel.

Batter Up

Batter, Batter, Batter, Batter, Swiiiiing Batter.  This week at the Hambo Hoedown, it's not a swing and a miss.  It's a swing and a hit.  This week's image is "Batter Boy" and the challenge is to add a pennant or banner.  Here's my card.
