Holly Jolly Christmas Challenge - Bingo


Welcome along for a new challenge over at the Holly Jolly Christmas Challenge. For the next two weeks we are playing Bingo! You can choose any three items either in a horizontal or vertical row, or over the diagonals from the matrix below. As usual there is plenty of inspiration from the Holly Jolly DT.

Ribbon
Texture
Glitter
Rhinestones
2 designer papers
Twine
Die cuts
Punches
PEARLS

Dont' forget that you are playing for some fabulous prizes from our sponsons who this time are Fred She Said and Stamp and Create. If you are looking for some new digi stamps to play with, head over to have a look in their online shops. 
For my card I used a beautiful digi stamp set from Fred She Said called FSS-Poinsettia & Pine Boughs. If you are not into colouring, you can even buy them pre-coloured here. To complete my Bingo, I chose to go diagonally and use Glitter, 2 designer papers and Die Cuts.

I coloured the poinsettia using Copics and cut out several layers to form the flower and popped a rhinestone in the middle. I used a die to cut out the scalloped circle around the poinsettia and inked around the edges with gold ink. Unfortunately it doesn't show very well in the photo but it has a pretty, subtle glittery look. I finished the the card quite simply with some Mirri card, Christmas papers, some Happy Christmas stickers from the bottom of my stash which I'm happy to finally get to use and finally some yellow stickles for the little yellow dots around the holly wreath. Now it's your turn to create something lovely and don't forget to link up with us over at the Holly Jolly Christmas challenge
