Woo Hoo! It is time for a blog hop with the Bacon bits and friends! We are having a “Ham & BACON” hop! Yep, that’s right, this time we are featuring a pig’s favorite actor …. Kevin BACON!!!
You should have arrived from JEANNIE’S BLOG, if so you are in the right place. If not, why not start at the BEGINNING so you miss NOTHING!
If you can’t tell already, my Kevin Bacon movie is one of my all-time favorites… ANIMAL HOUSE (house, house)! This movie was sassy, and funny, and a little bit crude, but hey! it’s about fraternities – have you ever been in a fraternity house? Truly not much different from the Animal House! Tell me if you agree.
I have been seeing the Pop-up-box Cards every where lately and decided I had to try that out, and what better project for it than the animal house – cause we need more than one animal right??
Guys, I have to tell you…My fellow bacon bit Jane is the queen of cutting, and after this card, I will appreciate her cards even more. Good grief Jane, this thing took some time! But in the end it was worth it!!
The brothers of Pi Iota Gamma or PIG are glad you came by. In order of appearance they are: Reptile (the Membership Chairman), Bailey Hug (the President), Possum-4211 (the Rush Chair), and Geronimouse (the Big Man on Campus) – Welcome to the HOUSE where ALL IS WELL (click)!
Thanks so much for joining us on the hop. Don’t forget to leave me some love and hopefully you’ve left some for everyone along the way cause there are prizes to be had! That’s right! A $15 digi shopping spree will be awarded to one randomly-drawn hopper who leaves a comment at each post along the way. The deadline for comments (for prize consideration) is Monday, April 14 at 10:00 PM EDT. We’ll reveal the winners on the Hoedown blog on Wed., April 16.
I am the last stop on the hop and I hope you had a lot of fun! I know we had fun creating for you! Have a great weekend!

Wowzers! How brilliant is this?! I can’t believe you fussy-cut all of those animals, but they look terrific! (I also can’t believe this is your first time making one of the boxes! GREAT job!) I’ve still never seen all of Animal House. It seems like I just see the same scenes over and over, but Tim references the movie a lot. I think he was just describing the John Belushi “zit” scene to the kids recently. LOL What an awesome way to end this hop, Lyn!!

SUPER card, Lyn! I love those box cards and yours is amazing. Look at all that coloring showing texture! I noticed all the detail you put into it, it must have taken you a while! Great cutting, too. I love how the house is featured on the outside and then POW, it opens to all those crazy animals. Great depiction of Animal House!
