~ A “Squeal” Out and those pics I promised ~
October 12th, 2009 by Holly McMillen
Good evening 🙂
What’s a “Squeal” out? Well, normally it would be a ”shout out”, but since we’re dealing with THE pig, then it’s a squeal :). THE pig I am referring to is Hambo. You see, last week I was surfing around and landed on the Talk to the Ham blog. I literally did squeal when I saw this drawing of a toy soldier by Tim. I adore toy soldiers. Well, they were having a little contest/bidding war to see who would win the digi-image, and guess what?! I won! So, not only is this my first toy soldier, it’s my first digi-image, too! Thank you, Monica and Tim!!
When I saw the Monday Mojo (MOJO108), I just knew it was a perfect fit for this awesome image.
Here are my deets:
Image: Toy Soldier by Hambo; sentiment is computer generated
Colors: Basic Black, Basic Gray, Very Vanilla, Paper Studio dp
Ink: Versafine Black onyx, copics
Accessories: ribbon, candy dots, circle punches, dimensionals

Now for those pictures I promised! I am no Martha Stewart, but I love my space. It has lots of room to move around and there’s potential for just about anything 🙂
This is the view from the door across the room towards the two corner windows:
My armoires that I found on Craigslist:
My desk (It came out dark because it’s nighttime and the flash wouldn’t go off with the florescent light on):
My new closet shelves:
My punch storage:
AND… can you believe I have made four cards since cleaning and it’s STILL clean?! Red letter day!

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you have a great night! Blessings!

Great card! Love all the detail. Nice stamping room too! TFS
Hello from Australia! Just clicked on the link from the Mojo Monday website to look at yr card, and I literally did a squeal of delight when I saw your card! I love it!! Gorgeous colours and love all the textures, and love how you popped the soldier up on mounts – gosh, just EVERYTHING!!
Great stamping room too – I love your ribbon collection!!
SO SO ADORABLE!! Oh my gosh! I even wrote about it on my blog today! And your ROOM!!! And the armoires are PINK!! Why aren’t they at my house???
What an awesome space you have to work in now! That is so neat!!! Love the punch storage! Mine are in drawers – gotta change that! They are too heavy!
COOL stuff today, girl!
Great mojo card, Holly and I’m so glad you won your little toy soldier 😀
Thanks for the pictures of your stamping space. You guys did a great job on it! I thought I had a lot of ribbon, but I think you have me beat LOL and yours is MUCH more organized than mine on those lovely dowels (mine is stacked in drawers). Now we know where the creativity occurs 😀
That toy soldier is adorable! Great card!!
…and your room looks wonderful!! Great place to play when those Colorado snows come!!
