Somebody Squealed (That it's your birthday)! Hambo Hoedown fun


Inside of card:
The challenge at the Hambo Hoedown this week was to use Pig Inmate (digi available at Hambo Stamps) and fiber, i.e., twine or string (no ribbon). I have had so much fun with many of the Hambo challenges, but this one was probably more fun than is legal to have, lol!
I found a great background image of a brick wall with a Wanted poster on it at Shutterstock.com and attached a tiny cut-out of the wayward pig. I put the second part of the sentiment on the inside of the card. I colored the pigs with Copics and distressed the bg and kraft card. I found the baker's twine at The Paper Source. The key is a rubber stamp that I stamped and cut out. Hope you enjoy this "ham on the lam"!!! I know I did.
