BING - "O" (Simply Create Too challenge 49)


"O" my stars, lucky me! I've joined the lovely ladies (including Cornelia W. of Stempel Spass) over at Simply Create Too on their design team. So excited to be asked and I'm so looking forward to the upcoming bi-weekly (yippie) challenges, there's such great variety of themes.  And you can create any kind of project, not just cards!  And kids are welcome too! And the motto is "It's all about fun."  I like that!

My first challenge as a new DT member really made me put my thinking cap on.  "O" boy, ever done a BINGO challenge?  Kinda like tic-tac-toe but tougher.  Have a look:


"O" geez, did you notice the fine print "Craft your project with items under one of the letters in BINGO downwards."  Now that's a good challenge.

See the word "sewing" in the "O" column?  Jumped out at me (OK, to be honest "polka dots" jumped out at me first, but I got over it when I saw "lace" in the same column) probably cuz I'd seen this card and was thinking about trying out my NBUS Full Card Triangles die from Simon Says Stamp.  Grabbed some yellow PP scraps and, "O" hey, I made a card.


Hey "O". Yellow, sewing, button, twine and stripes.  It's all there folks.
So, if you're ready for some fun, pick a letter, hit your stash and Simply Create Too!


Supplies hey:
Paper: cardbase Bringmann, various yellow scraps
Stamps: sentiment TAWS
Ink:  Glimmer Mist, StazOn 
Tools: mask Studio Calico, die SSS, sewing machine
Other:  button Sew Sweet, twine Doodlebug

Huge congrats on the DT gig, Maria! You've got off to a stunning start by absolutely nailing the O challenge with this fabulous card. Only you could take so many triangles of different sizes and patterns, circular stitching, chevrons and splatters (and a button) and create a wonderfully cohesive card. Love it!
I fancy G - I'm off to investigate.
