You can see Rachel's work in her gallery. We are just loving all of her projects. I think these two may be my favorites. I love the idea of using our overlays for place mats. All you have to do is round the corners.
This project is also so creative!
She used overlays/rub-ons in ways that i haven't see yet, and did it with such style- so cool!
It's time for our monthly giveway- so post a comment below, and we'll pick some winners to get some new stuff. I just love reading all the comments :)
Love these ideas! So creative! I love seeing how many different ways the Hambly goodies can be used.

Monday I got a pretty heavy package of Hambly goodness. I had fun putting together a mini album for my collection of glass pendants with some of the stuff I got.
Posted by: ConnieC | May 14, 2008 at 02:33 PM
Sigh... where do you find these inspirational ladies??
Pick me... you would really brighten my low cr@ppy week...

Well, that stuff is just gorgeous. Makes me fall in love with yellow and decorate my whole house with it.
Posted by: Gunilla | May 14, 2008 at 02:52 PM
I love those wind chimes. Even though I am sure they don't chime but a lot of people don't like to hear the music and this is perfect for those people.
Your DT is the best as the ideas just keep coming in

Let me just say, I love Rachel Denbow, and I love Hambly! Put two of my favorite things together and you're bound to get something great! The gallery is lovely, naturally. And now there's a giveaway! Something from Hambly comes to me in the mail practically once a week...I'd love to add an extra surprise one!
Posted by: Michelle Johnston | May 14, 2008 at 03:05 PM
Wow! I love seeing all of the different crafty ideas!
You have some mad skills chica! :)

Rachel is so great and her style matches Hambly perfectly! Loved the yellow thingy hanging from the ceiling! I want to try that sometime. Off to check her gallery!

Posted by: AllyW | May 14, 2008 at 03:14 PM
Love the chandelier from the Guest Designer! Oh, lawd, please pick me for some Hambly!!!! ;) :) :) Love your stuff and the show looked cool.
Posted by: Melissa | May 14, 2008 at 03:17 PM
The earrings are my favorite!
Every time I mess around with shrink plastic I get frustrated and end up trashing my experiments. Using the printed overlays looks so easy!
Posted by: nomi | May 14, 2008 at 03:19 PM
there is so much EYE CANDY here ...
good stuff!
Posted by: Alex Hardy | May 14, 2008 at 03:19 PM

Posted by: Kathy W | May 14, 2008 at 03:23 PM
Congrats Rachel, your work is awesome and of course, I am a HUGE fan of Hambly! I would love to win some goodies!
Posted by: Angela L. | May 14, 2008 at 03:24 PM
ok, so I'm totally drooling over Rachel's stuff and realize there just isn't enough time during my [work] day to see all those beautiful things posted on the net... it's ok, I take it one day at a time and still take in whatever inspiration I can get on my "down" days ;)
Posted by: alesk | May 14, 2008 at 03:25 PM
Got my first Hambly screen print and used it on a mini book. Love your product.........
keep it coming !!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by: Caroline | May 14, 2008 at 03:29 PM
that mobile would look awesome hanging in my dinning area window with all this warm california sun we've been having.

All of the Guests have been so wonderful! Thanks for the inspiration! I would LOVE to receive HAMBLY! Who wouldn't?!? Thanks for the chance!
Posted by: Bianca B. | May 14, 2008 at 03:55 PM
I love, love, LOVE the hanging mobile thing from Rachel Denbow!!! SSSssOOOOoo cool!!! I'd love to win - I've never had the opportunity to use Hambly and my LSS is ALWAYS sold out!
Posted by: Jenny | May 14, 2008 at 03:56 PM
I love the little travel book!
I think that making the mini album *before* your trip is such a good idea... you can just fill as you go, and it's done when you are home. The amount of detail you can include is probably way better... I need to start that. :]
Thanks for the inspiration once again!
Posted by: amy | May 14, 2008 at 03:59 PM
NO FREAKIN WAY! Rachel has got to be my favorite guest designer so far. Her designs are seriously BEYOND INCREDIBLE. So fresh and innovative and they really make you look at Hambly with a fresh perspective! WOW!
Thanks for the chance at some yummy Hambly goodness :)
A girl always needs more Hambly in her life ;)
Posted by: Dena | May 14, 2008 at 03:59 PM
funky, colourful, and quite retro! Seriously cool.

I'm so happy you're in New York. I wish I could make it to Scrapper's Playground, I hope you'll do another class on Long Island.
The gallery has some great ideas.

woohoo! denbowlicious! off to check out her gallery now. LOVE the GDT roster this year. LOVE IT.
Posted by: metrochic | May 14, 2008 at 04:11 PM
I continue to be bountifully inspired by Hambly Prints' products! Yours were the first transparencies I started to use, and the quality beats others on the market. The designs -- especially the flourishes -- suit my shabby and mixed media approach to papercrafting perfectly. With Rachel's designs, I've got even more lightbulb moments for using these items. Keep up the great work, all of you creative minds! Be well...JSK
Posted by: Jane Sarasohn-Kahn | May 14, 2008 at 04:12 PM
I love the gallery, she is one talented chica! I love the earings.

Posted by: Cheryl | May 14, 2008 at 04:55 PM
Ewww that yellow hanging reminds me of a baby's mobile ..hmmmm that would be kinda cool hanging over a new baby's crib ...it could be a subliminal message that scrapbooking is a good thing LOL
My baby is due Oct 17, 2008 and if you pick me I'll try to re-create a few of these and add to our baby decor..
Thanks for the great idea!!
Cheers ~ Scrappy Val ([email protected])
