Mr & Mrs

Christmas [or not] Bingo Challenges has a new challenge ready to go for you!

CBC will feature a new Bingo card for each challenge and while this isn't your typical game of BINGO, you are required to use at least three items in ONE column.

We are a "just for fun" challenge where you will have the chance to proudly display our Winner or Top Pick Badge!

My choice was the "G" column - Wedding, Silver, Ribbon and Doily.

The image is from the Piece of Cake collection by Stampin' Up! This set has a variety of cake selections, making it easy to pick a cake for different celebrations.  After coloring the image with Copic markers, I used the coordinating punch cut the cake and plate.  

I used a circle die cut on vellum to create the cake background and a border punch by Stampin' Up! to go under the red ribbon.  The papers are from my stash. Note: the vellum has a yellow tinge in the photo, but it's not in real life!

So glad you stopped by, and I look forward to seeing your creation!

Gnome Hello

"Something to Say" is the theme for our new challenge at Creative Knockouts!

We have a fabulous sponsor so make sure to upload your creation for your chance to win a special prize from Polkadoodles!

I created this card using the Polkadoodles image Spring Flowers Gnome.  I colored the image with Copic markers then had the task of fussy cutting (groan).  The image comes with an SVG file but I wasn't at home at the time of making so didn't have use of my Cricut.  

The Hello was stamped in Versamark and heated with white emobssing powder.  The set is How to Say Hello by MFT (no longer available). I added foam squares to the gnome and bee before affixing to the card base.  I would like to add a few more bees and will probably do so once I'm back at home.
