We Humbuggers thought it would be nice to introduce a little more culture and finesse to Humbug Hall in 2011 and our fabulous Guest Designers are certainly helping us to achieve that. April brings with it the opportunity to introduce 2 more wonderfully talented crafters and showcase some of their gorgeous work. Please join us in giving the warmest ever Humbuggy Welcome to
Veronica - Vroncardsand
Kelly - Pink Crafty Devil
They are continuing to maintain the high standards already set by previous guests, as you will clearly see when you scroll down to view their samples. But just before that, we wondered whether to spoil you completely and include some of our very own, homegrown, Humbug Hall creative poetry? Hmmmm ... Maybe So ... Maybe No!
As a way of testing the water, we've put together a little ditty especially for you
... and it goes like this ...
April Fools
"Ann and Max from Humbug Hall
Are North of the Border and having a ball.
Max invited Ann to stay
To come and eat haggis and have a play. We've oodles of ribbons and paper and more
Crafty goodies and treasures galore.
A trip on the train to the capital city
Excited Humbuggers are sitting pretty.
Shopping and bagpipes - a man in a kilt
Max'll make sure that no wine is spilt!
It's a wee bit grey and a wee bit 'dreich'
Sunshine rays playing hide'n'seek.
Humbuggers don't care -we're doing just fine
Crafting and stamping and slugging red wine.
So much temptation - the time flies too fast!
Thank goodness at least the memories'll last.
Hang on a minute ... who's that at the door?
"Hoots mon!" There's something a wee bit braw'
They're gone like a flash and no wonder 'cos look!
These hunks have arrived with a bedtime book. 
A wee bitty naughty ... a LOT bitty nice
The Humbuggers don't need asking twice!
THEIR task is judging the best 'botty-wiggle'
... AND YOURS is for cards to make you giggle." SO! What do you think?
BWAH HAHAHAHAHAHA ... HAHAHA
BWAH HAHAHAHAHAHA ... HAHAHA
Yeah ... okay ... we're never going to be Poet Laureate contenders but it passes the grade as a bit of fun!
So if you've read properly then you've worked out that this week we'd like to see cards and projects that make you giggle or smile ... either with an image or sentiment ... AND
... BECAUSE The Humbuggers are in Bonnie Scotland, you have the option to use a touch of tartan too! Have a peek and see what our invited guests have done to inspire you by clicking the names below - and then check out Humbugger Ann's wee cutie.
Ahem ... Humbugger Max is (predictably) STILL making sure the wine doesn't spill so there's no submission from her!! Maybe next week?

The deadline for this challenge is

Thursday 7th April 2011
Just remember ... have fun and don't forget to leave us a direct link to your project in our comment box so we can come and admire your creativity. *********************
You are free to create whatever you like ... it doesn't have to be a card ... in fact, show us as many different Christmas Projects as you want to share. AND FINALLY ... here's a sneaky peeky at our regular Monthly prize which will be awarded to one lucky winner, picked at random from this week's entries.
Love
Ann and Max xxx
