Grateful Harvest at Christmas [or not] BINGO Challenges

Christmas [or not] Bingo Challenges has a brand-new challenge ready for you!

Each challenge, CBC features a fresh Bingo card filled with fun and creative prompts - and while it's not your typical game of BINGO, the rules are simple:

Choose at least three items from ONE column and include them in your project.

This is a just-for-fun challenge, but it's a great way to get inspired - and you could earn a Winner or Top Pick Badge to proudly display on your bog or socials!

For my project, I picked the "O" column, which includes:

• Harvest - Copper- Pocket- Sequins

I had so much fun working with these elements - they really pushed my creativity!

Autumn Inlay Die by Concord & 9th was used to create my card. Not gonna lie, using this die is a bit tedious but the options are endless. After putting the background together, I created a vellum pocket and stamed the inside card with "I'm lucky to have a friend like you" stamped and heat embossed with Tickle embossing power by WOW!.  So grateful sentiment is from More to Say dies also by Concord & 9th.

Visit the Christmas [or not] BINGO Challenges blog to check out the full BINGO card and get inspired by the Design Team's creations. Then it's your turn - we can't wait to see what you make!

Happy crafting!
