Good morning stampin' friends! Well, I am back with another card to share. This time it is for the new challenge that we have at Simon Says Stamp Challenge blog!!! This week the challenge is a Stampin' and crafty Bingo! Whoo hoo!!!! I really LOVE bingo challenges! so much fun and I love having the different options! So, just pick a line from the Bingo card either horizontally, vertically or diagonally and then use those items on your card or creation. The DT is also featuring The Greeting Farm stamps today. It is not a requirement of the challenge but if you have any TGF stamps we would love to see them in combination with the Bingo challenge!!!
We have a fab prize this week!!! As always, Heidi, has very generously offered up a $50.00 voucher to to the Simon Says Stamp Superstore. Just join the challenge and link you card up on the Simon Says Stamp Challenge blog to entered into the draw for the 50.00 shopping spree!!!
Here is the Bingo grid for this week's challenge!!!
For my card I have used the 3rd vertical row...Flowers, Brads, Sentiment! I used my new and fave BasicGrey 6x6 Sweet Threads papers and brads for this card. I am afraid you will be seeing a lot of it as I just love the colours in these papers! I finally inked up this sweet Ebony stamp that I have had in my stash forever. She is so cute and I'm so happy with how she turned out. I'm especially happy with her hair....I don't always get the hair looking right. I coloured her with my Copics and cut out around her and for the sentiment I thought it would be fun to use this phrase circle that I cut on my Silhouette Digital Craft Cutter. I cut two scalloped borders with my MFT Die-namics Simply Scallops border die and layered them. I added the BG Sweet Threads brads to dot the "i"s and the exclamation mark. I added a few prima flowers with more brads to finish it off. I inked all the edges of the papers with Amaretto Powder Puff ink....love, love, love these Powder Puff chalk inks.
Well, thanks so much for stopping by and having a wee peek at my card! I hope you can join the fun Bingo challenge and please swing by the Simon Says Stamp Challenge blog and see all the fun and gorgeous cards made by the DT!!!
Happy Stampin'!
Hugs,

Hi Tara! You always amaze me with your bold colour combos - they always look fab! I'm still a bit of a wuss when it comes to colour! LOVE the colouring of that sweet stamp and you're right, her hair is just fantastic!! Will have to play along for another SSS challenge...who wouldn't want the chance to win $50 in their store?! Hugs, Lisa X
Ha, love that sentiment circle! gorgeous card Tara!
I'm not suprised you're pleased with the hair colouring - stunning. I like your use of brads for the quote & the way you've also used different sizes of them with your flowers - that just adds so much interest & I've not thought of what impact that has before.
