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!

Joyce was inspired by Anne of Green Gables to create this pretty card to welcome Spring!


Our cute Bicycle Built for You girl plays the part of Anne so well in Joyce’s pretty scene! She included the perfect images from Apple-solutely Awesome, Spring Basket, Crazy Antics and Little Woodland Library!


This is so lovely, Joyce! Thank you for sharing!

Samantha‘s watermelon filled card is so perfectly adorable!


Samantha used Fruit Salad 6×6 paper to create the background. Then she layered Scalloped Circles in green Textured Canvas cardstock and Watercolor Wishes paper. She added another scalloped circle in Spiffier Speckles that she die-cut with grass from Mushroom Border.

Then she added all the cute images from Crazy Antics and Simply Celebrate Summer! And there are some pretty flowers in the picnic basket from Oh Gnome!

Thank you so much for this perfectly summery inspiration, Samantha! I love the watermelon theme!
