Bingo Christmas Card


I made this Bingo Christmas Card just for the fun of it. Well, not completely. We made up Bingo Cards for our Charity Stamping Party with Stampin' Up's New "Bingo Card" Stamp that is in their Mini Catalogue right now. I wanted to show that this stamp could also be used to make a card because most people find the size of it intimidating for a card.

I had a lot of fun making this card. The hard part was picking the numbers to go on the card. I am very anal....I know most of you will find that to be very shocking of me, but I am. So, I couldn't just put random numbers on, no, that would be too easy. Every number on this card has some sort of meaning to me. I just can't help who I am sometimes.

I used Bazzill Brown & Kraft Cardstock and Patterned Paper from Basic Grey's Jovial 6 x 6 paper pack. The buttons are from CTMH, the poinsetta flower & leaves are from Bazzill & so is the red embroidery floss and the brown brad is from American Crafts.

I used Stampin' Chocolate Chip, Real Red & Old Olive Ink. I used CTMH Say It in Style, Card Chatter - Christmas & Small Friendship Alphabet stamp sets and EK Success' Whale of a Punch Corner Punch for the die-cuts on the inside of the card.

    PS I have never scrapped in my life but keep meaning to have a bash, do you laminate your photos to preserve them or just add them as they are. Thought I would ask an expert before i do something horribly wrong!
