Play along each week with a Hambo Stamps image (rubber or digital) and you are in the loop for some awesome FREE  images! Don't have any Hambo images yet? Click HERE for Freebies and JOIN US!


First, we know this is such a busy time of year, and we want to say a special thanks to everyone who played along with us in the last challenge! We're still enjoying the holiday season, so we're not finished with all things Christmas yet. Here's one more holiday image, perfect for gift tags or Christmas thank-you notes. Meet BAILEY CHRISTMAS:

This image is not available free, unless you played in last week's challenge and received it via email. Buy it HERE!
This Bailey image is inspired once again by the "real" Bailey:
 
Look! He's snuggled up with his warmest flannel blanket and his favorite Christmas bone, just waiting to see what clever projects you're going to come up with in the "ANYTHING GOES!" challenge for this week. That's right, you have no limits to your creativity this week, so show us what you can do with your freedom.

Team Squeal once again offers some FUN samples to kick-start your own mojo:
Jan presents a spiffy tag.






Carolyn's tag takes it to another dimension.
Jane's gift would make any tail wag.
And Lyn of Team Oink couldn't miss out on the fun:

Now show us what YOU can do! Remember that you don't have to use Bailey Christmas
BUT we do require HAMBO images only --- and you can use ANY of those 
for our challenge this week! We have a wonderful line of rubber images
as well as digis and we like seeing those too!
