Welcome!
I feel like I haven't played along with the Crazy girls in ages! Today's Crazy challenge is a SUPER fun one! Frances has challenged us to play Bingo. Bingo??? Yes, Bingo!!! Here is her Bingo card!
How fun is this??? Not only do we have an amazing challenge this week but we have an even more AMAZING sponsor!!! This weeks sponsor is Flourishes!!!! Oh my gosh, how amazing is this! I have 2 cards to share with you today but only 1 fits in to the bingo challenge so I will show you that first!
The base of this card is Kraft CS with a mat of Basic Grey DP. The darling image is from Flourishes Kid Play set and was stamped on Pink Paislee DP using Chocolate Chip Craft ink. I added some Early Espresso ribbon, Pink Basic Grey rhinestones and Regal Rose CS that I punched using my Martha Stewart Doily Punch. I sponged all the edges using Crumb Cake ink. This was a very simple card and totally CASEd from one of my Paper Crafts magazines!!! LOL!!!
Here is my second card using Flourishes Swan Lake set ~
My card does not do this set justice! Oh my gosh, it is just beautiful! I kept looking at my card and wondering what I could add because it is so plain but the image is so gorgeous, there just wasn't anything that was worthy!!! LOL!!! I made the "frame" on Select White CS using a scrap of square CS and a black marker. I then masked the outside edges of my frame off using post it notes. I then stamped the images, colored with Copics and added some Frosted Lace Stickles on the water and was done. Oh, I did mat the image with Black CS!
Be sure to check out the Crazy girls creations!!! Let me tell you, they are FANTASTIC!!
