Karen's Doodles Challenge....BINGO



This week's challenge at Karen's Doodles is to use the Bingo card and choose 3 things in a row. I'm still baffled as to why they call it a Bingo card, but everyone in Blogland does, so I will too! It seems more to me like a TIC TAC TOE board!!! LOL Anyway, here is my card for this challenge:



I used BUTTONS, RIBBON & FLOWERS.

I have used TISSUE PLEASE and I coloured her with Copics. The CS is Really Rust (SU) and the DP is Basic Grey and some DCWV from my stash. The ribbon is SU and the flowers and button are from my stash too! The sentiment is from a Gina K set.

Head on over to the Challenge Blog and check out the rest of the DTs creations!!!

I hope you will join us this week!
