Hey friends, it’s Christy here with another card for our Bingo Board Challenge! For this one, I went with the top row across, because I really wanted to make an interactive card using the brand-new Pull ’n Slide Surprise! But first, I needed to tackle the coloring. I pulled together images from Year Nine, Make Lemonade, All the Party Hats, You Autumn Know, Forest Feast, and Crazy Antics. I stamped all of my images in Jet Black Ink, colored them with Copic markers, and trimmed them out with the matching dies.


Next, it was time to create the Pull ’n Slide Surprise mechanism. I cut the main piece from some yellow Bitsy Blooms 6×6 patterned paper, added the stabilizers to the back, folded along the score lines, and added some 1’4” Double-sided tape to the bottom edge. Then I cut the slider tab piece from some Sticky Note Cardstock and adhered them together. I cut another backer piece from some more Sticky Note and glued those together on the stabilizers. Then, while it was still relatively flat, I stamped my sentiment at the top.


I created a card base and covered it in some more Bitsy Blooms 6×6 patterned paper. Then I popped up the Pull ’n Slide Surprise mechanism in the center with some foam tape. Then all that was left was to glue on my images below the center score line, add a gift card inside, and finish with some Stardust Stickles.


If you’d like to see the whole process of creating this card, you can check out the video tutorial on my YouTube channel, Christy Gets Crafty. This one really is better to see in action! I hope you enjoy it! We can’t wait to see what you come up with for our Bingo Board Challenge. Have a wonderful day!

Thank you, Christy, for sharing this delightful card inspiration!

Hi friends, Samantha here! The current challenge is all about a super inspiring bingo card! For this card, I used middle N column: Rainbow, Critter, Patterned Paper, Bright and Foam Squares!


I stamped the images from A Little Sparkle, My Rainbow and Unicorn Picnic coloring them with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers adding some details to the images with a white gel pen. And then I die cut them with their coordinating dies.


For the background, I used the purple paper from the Really Rainbow Petite Paper Pack! I used Chipped Sapphire and Wilted Violet Distress Inks and very lightly ink blended the edges of the paper. Then I splattered some colors and white acrylic ink on top!


The sentiment was heat embossed in white onto some Black Licorice paper and then popped up with foam tape.

Thank you for sharing this sweet inspiration, Samantha!
