Addicted to Stamps - Bingo Addict Challenge #1

Morning everyone - well we've come to the second weekly card challenge over at Addicted to Stamps.  This week's challenge is Bingo Addict and we're asking you to follow the bingo card choosing three elements either diagonally, horizontally or vertically on the bingo card.


For my DT card I have chosen the first line of RIBBON, RED and STAMP.  I've used the new Wild Rose Studio Celebrate in Style stamp set and the matching papers from the Man about Town paper pack.  I've used an 8x8" scalloped card blank.  The red backing card is from my stash and scored diagonally on my new Stampin Up Simply Scored Scoreboard (stroke, stroke!!!  lol) - it really makes life easy, it was always a bit of a hit and miss before trying diagonal scoring but it's easy peasy with this.  I've matted a piece of the Man about town paper with a piece of black card and put it on the base card at an angle.  My fab James Bond lookalike was stamped in DI Black Soot and clear embossed and then cut out with a set of dies that I got at a recent show - there is no makers name but quite a few of these are now popping up in the market.  This was matted onto a piece of red die cut card.  The sentiment is from the same set, die cut using nesties labels 20 and mounted onto a Spellbinders Fancy Tag.  The ribbon is SU pleated that Jenny gave us at our SU Extravaganza last week and I've popped the martini glass with cherries (of course....) onto SU oval and scalloped oval punched card.  I've added some gems to finish off.

Thanks for dropping by - don't forget to pop over to Addicted to Stamps to check out the fab designs that the DT have come up with.

  4. An excellent choice from the bingo card and lots of iterest on the card. That diagonal board certainly makes easy work of the scoring. Time to get my brain in gear and decide which line to choose.

  7. I love my scoring board too - the diagonal board takes so much stress out of crafting! This is a super male card. You don't see too many red male cards, and as red is my favourite colour, this gets a massive thumbs up from me!
