Christmas [or not] BINGO Challenges DT

make every day matter

Hey everybody! I hope you’re having a great week! Our new challenge is live this morning over at Christmas [or not] BINGO Challenges and I’m excited to share my DT inspiration project for ConBC #7 – Anything Goes with Featured BINGO Card. I went with Column I this time (stripes, monochrome, tag, no stamping) and created a collaged anniversary card for my son and daughter-in-law. Those 49 and Market Curators Botanical Ephemera Bits and Rub-On Transfer Sheet were calling my name so I had to play! ;)

I cut the card base from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock along with a layering panel from a paper in the Keep It Simple Back To Basics Jade 12×12 Collection Pack. I picked out quite a few pieces of ephemera from the same Jade Collection Pack (including two corners which I stapled using a Tim Holtz Tiny Attacher) and a bunch of pieces of ephemera from the 49 and Market Curators Botanical Ephemera Bits, popping some of them up on foam strips. I used the 49 and Market Rub-On Transfer Sheet to add a couple elements directly to the layering panel and a large one on the tag. I added an old triangle paper clip from my stash and several green gemstones which completed the card front. To say this was ‘fun’ is an understatement, lol! I had a blast!

I cut the inside panel from 80# Solar White and embellished it with a strip of coordinating paper from the Jade Collection Pack. I added a 49 and Market Ephemera piece for the sentiment and layered the panel on more paper from the Jade Collection Pack.

Hello shaker

Hi friends! Wow, can you believe it’s March 1st already! Has the weather started warming up any where you are? It’s still pretty chilly here but it’s not unbearable. Our new challenge is live this morning over at the newly re-structured Christmas [or not] BINGO Challenges and I’m delighted to share my DT inspiration project for ConBC #6 – Anything Goes with Featured BINGO Card! I went with Column B this time and used the enamel dots, frame, shaker and clean and simple options for my card. I used two different kinds of confetti and a square shaker pouch from This Calls For Confetti along with some of my favorite sentiment dies from STAMPlorations!

I cut a standard A2 size side-folding card base from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock and rounded the bottom right corner. I cut a frame from CutCardStock Stardream Metallic Lagoon cardstock using a My Favorite Things Stitched Mini Scalloped Square and a Keep It Simple Stitched Squares Nesting Die. Next, I trimmed a STAMPlorations Watercolor ATC Journaling Card to fit behind the frame and adhered it to the card base. I affixed a This Calls For Confetti square shaker pouch to the back side of the frame with 1/8″ red liner tape.

I added a pinch of Opalescent Island Blue Sequins and a pinch of Iridescent Clear Sequin Confetti (both from This Calls For Confetti) and sealed the shaker with foam strips. I added a sentiment cut from Solar White and Lagoon cardstock using the STAMPlorations Skinny Sentiments dies. The finishing touch was adding a few Eyelet Outlet White Enamel Dots.

I cut the inside panel from 80# Solar White cardstock and embellished it with a scalloped border cut from the Lagoon cardstock using a My Favorite Stamps Stitched Mini Scallop Rectangle STAX. I stamped a sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Eden’s Garden stamp set in Catherine Pooler Cummerbund ink.

1/7/24 Rising Star at A Place To Start!

Hi friends! I hope you had a fabulous New Year’s Eve and you’re ready to embrace 2024! Our new challenge is live this morning over at the newly restructured and renamed Christmas [or not] BINGO Challenges formerly known as Christmas BINGO Challenges. We’re no longer strictly a Christmas challenge… we’ve opened up our challenges to ALL occasions which means you are welcome to create a project for ANY holiday, season or occasion using the featured BINGO card. I’m thrilled to share my inspiration project for ConBC #5 – Anything Goes with Featured BINGO Card – I went with Column O this time and featured layers, stitching and rectangle on this birthday card. I used a variety of dies for a tone-on-tone look with a splash of color, and I love how it turned out!

The 3-1/2″ x 6″ mini slimline card base and two mini slimline layers (using the Kat Scrappiness Mini Slimline Postage Stamp Edge Dies and Mini Slimline Quilted Backdrop Die) were cut from Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock. I also stamped the sentiment from the My Favorite Things Sassy Pants Birthday Greetings 3 stamp set on Solar White, fussy cut it and set it aside. I used the Spellbinders Artful Tulip die set and a variety of CutCardStock Lessebo, Pop Tone and foil cardstock to create the focal image on this card. The finishing touch was adding Want2Scrap white pearls to the background.

The inside panel was cut from Solar White cardstock using a Mini Slimline Postage Stamp Edge Die. I stamped another sentiment from the My Favorite Things Sassy Pants Birthday Greetings 3 stamp set, and added a leftover tulip from the focal image on the front.
