Happy National Scrapbooking Day!! :)
And welcome to the bloghoppers ;)
The little one loves to draw and cut out her own drawings.
And I love to take pictures of her doing so ;)
Thing is - stuff usually get lost after a while so I figured I'd
safekeep some of them on this layout :)
And welcome to the bloghoppers ;)
I'd like to share a Hambly-layout and some cards first if you don't mind - before we get down to the business why the majority of you are here I guess :) Please bear with me :)
The little one loves to draw and cut out her own drawings. And I love to take pictures of her doing so ;)
Thing is - stuff usually get lost after a while so I figured I'd
safekeep some of them on this layout :)
Materials used: Hambly papers - Woodgrain (teal blue ink on bronze - LOVE this one!!!!), Hanging Heliconias (White Ink on Lemon Lime textured paper) and rubons - these are real classics btw: Vintage Motifs (black) and Stars (red) and kraft-stickers - Vintage Journal Bits and Alphabet.Other stuff include Prima flowers&pebble, MM alpha (ampersand) and Heidi Swapp numbers. AND! I simply *adore* my Fiskars borderpunches - Upper Crest and Apron Lace!!! *loves*
To safekeep the drawings and cutouts I created a pocketout of cardstock, covered it with patterned paper and adhered
it to the background after rubbing off some rubons on it to
make it look like they came from under the pocket.
Love to do this w/drawings, ephemera and cards :)
brown cardstock, satin-ribbon & a Prima-pebble.
Another simple window-card created with kraft cardstock,Hambly rubons - Textures one and Elegant Labels, and letters from Adornit.
Oh lookie. Another card :p Last one I promise :)Lilac and kraft cardstock, Hambly bordersticker (love that it's transparent :) ), Hambly Frame Wallpaper Overlay, Hambly Two-Tone paper and Hambly Stars Rubon :) I plan to keep this card for fast customization and just add the name or age or whatev to the frame when I need the card :)
Right! Sorry for the Hambly-spam ;) Back to business! :)

hey there! just wanted to say first off that your work is GORGEOUS! i love following it through the hambly blog. i am super crazy over all the new hambly that i've yet to get my hands on, but i think my favorite older hambly is probably the circles. can't go wrong with circles! thanks for letting me be a part of your blog hop (and im totally bookmarking your blog now to follow your gorgeous work!)
I love the colors, but my clear fav's are the rub ons and the frames on the transparencies.
The little babygrow prints in the cutes things I've seen in a long time.
Happy NSD!!
lovely layout. happy nsd!hambly rocks!
your layout is great. thanks for sharing. - gian de la rama
Barte-rub onsene! Fordi de er helt absurde og fordi ingen annen produsent ville funnet på å lage dem :D
Så lekre kort du har laget! Og den LO'en med Amalie som tegner er jo så smart!
Jeg har vært stor fan av rubons'ene til Hambly lenge. De er så lekre og i så kule farger! Har først i det siste endelig forsøkt meg på overlayene også, og de er jo bare sååå effektfulle!
Håper du får en fin dag:)
I love the butterfly and frames overlays!!
What a gorgeous layout!!!! And the cards are awesome! Really love what you do!
What a fantastic projects!!! really love Hambly for the versatility, we can make something with this stuff, mini books, layouts, decorate houses... my favorites are the butterflies and chandeliers, love them!! ♥

Love your unique, yet chic style...such an inspiration to get this day going. Lately, I have been a little ObsEsSEd with the Frame wallpaper (in black and teal) and the frame overlays..I just can't get enough!!!
I love the transparencies, I specially liked the cages and bikes. Lately, though, I've been dabbling in mixed media and have been using the Clearly Heavy Overlays, which I emboss in my diecut machine - I love the effect!

I *heart* Hambly!! I sooo want more to add to my stash, I can never have too much Hambly! I'm currently loving the woodgrain, all of it!
I love how you created the LO on your daughter's drawings and cutouts. Everything about Hambly is addicting.
My favourites are the owls, the birds and the chandeliers... But I'm also crazy about the new styles, especially small dots and onesies. And can never get enoiugh of the kraft stickers!
cute stuff -
yeah - happy nsd
fabulous work!
Happy NSD!! I unfortunately don't get to use alot of Hambly since it's not sold in my area, but I love the look of the graph/circle transparencies being used in mini books as pages, it adds something so cool to the minis!

I love that so many of them come in bright colors! And are so easy to cut apart for cards and other smaller projects.

I have to say I love the colors but most of all I am drawn to the transparencies...just love it all.
Love your cards! And enjoyed your entire post :-) I too just learned about the Fiskars punches...used them a bunch yesterday (and I have the sore hand to prove it :-).
Fantastic idea with your daughters artwork!
I love that you can mix Hambly with virtually any other product and it works. My fave products are the overlays.

I don't really like butterflies in general but those new hambly butterfly transparencies are really making me want to try some butterfly stuff. They are really pretty!
Yeah the butterflies are the 1st that come to mind. But looking back at some of my stuff, I use those frames a ton. The rubs and the transparencies!
I love hambly overlays!
Thanks for the chance!
Very beautiful work! Mostly I just stare, admire, and sniff my Hambly. Weird, I know. But seriously, I have a hard time using it, it's so pretty!
Loving the wood grains!
THank you so much for having a great giveaway on NSD!

Darn, some of the photos didn't load for me. Well, I don't know what my favorite Hambly item is because I've never used any - but I'd like to!
Your blog is wonderful! Love Hambly birds and chandeliers.
Nancy
I dunno if my last comment worked, so here goes again! I love your layouts and projects, and am so inspired! My fave Hamblys right now are the butterfly (pink) overlay, the circles, and woodgrain!
I love the woodgrain tranparencies and well, anything transparent.
Awesome!
I like the cards. Thanks. NSD helps me remember how great it is to be a creative scrapbooker.
love seeing hambly used on cards!
I love the green, the lime green is just such a perfect colour. And combined with transparencies it is pretty well my ideal combo!
Love those window cards!
