This week we have a very different and interesting challenge for you. We are having a game of Bingo ! So, eyes down and Look In !!. Let's Play !!!......
So, for this challenge its simple ! You just choose 3 items that are in a straight line and it can be horizontal, vertical or diagonal so for instance you could choose brads, lace and gems or punch/die cuts, flowers and gems - simple ! If you need any further guidance, please look at the Design Team's cards on the Simon Says Stamp Challenge blog and above each card it will tell you which line from the grid they chose.
We would also like to thank the Allsorts Challenge Blog, they ran this same challenge a few weeks ago and have very kindly let us pinch their idea :-)
This week, the prize is a WHOPPING $50 voucher from Simon Says Stamp Superstore!!! Whheeeeeehoooooo!!!!!! How exciting eh?? So, get out your stamps and start creating!!! We can't wait to see what you create!!!! Have a great week & good luck!
I chose the 3rd row down , Gems/Glitter/Ribbon.
This was one of THE very first stamps I ever bought !! It is a pity I don't have a photo of the one and only card I ever made using it ,,, HORRENDOUS ,, but I think I have learned alot since those days and l think this card is a vast improvement !! :-) It is from Stamps Happen this one is called 4 Cats,(oops ,, it is currently out of stock but it will be back in store SOON !!) I love the slightly quirky designs they make :-) This is a huge stamp and there isn't much room for anything else on the front of the card. I stamped the image with Memento ink and coloured with Copics. I then masked all the cats and used my FAB Copic air brush to make the background. I then used some Star Dust Stickles around the edge. The papers are Basic Grey Max and Whiskers and I sewed all the edges on my sewing machine ,, (I have run out of DSST !!) The ribbon was in my drawer and the lovely Champagne Pearls are from Kaiser Craft.
Inside view ,, I masked all the tall cats and just inked the small one for the inside, the sentiment is from a Stampendous Clear Set
