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!

We will also be highlighting a few of your fabulous projects at the close of each challenge! By linking your projects to our challenges you will give permission for us to post your work to this blog and our social media sites. Check out the How to Play page for a few guidelines to play along. We want this to be FUN so we’ll keep the rules to just a few!

Let’s see how our amazing Design Team was inspired by this new theme!

Joyce assembled this fantastic summery scene using just die sets! She started with Scalloped Treat Box Beach House Add-On to make the little beach cottage, it includes the seagull and driftwood. The cute crab is in part of the Palm Trees set. She set the beachy scene using Stitched Wave Borders and Slimline Stitched Hillside Borders.

Karin‘s Magic Iris card features the beachy images from On the Beach! She filled the iris with a sunny greeting from Magic Messages!

Franci‘s Shadow Box Card is filled with colorful Smooth Sailing images! I love how she added the clouds and seagulls on acetate strips so they appear to be in the “sky”!

Our fun sloths are getting in on the Summertime Fun! Samantha combined Hang in There, I Like Naps and Slow Down and Enjoy with Make Lemonade and a sentiment from Simply Celebrate Summer!

Who doesn’t love toasting marshmallows on the beach! This mermaid and crab borrowed some S’more the Merrier supplies to make the yummy treats! How amazing is Jessica‘s ocean sunset background?!

Caly combined two favorite summertime treats, watermelon and popsicles for her inspiration project! She used I Scream, You Scream to craft up these refreshing pops!


A bunch of our cute mice are enjoying at the beach in Samantha‘s clever design! She ink-blended the shoreline background adding splatters for lots of texture. She added beach accessories from Life is Good, Fintastic Friends and On the Beach for the mice to enjoy! The mice are from Bubbles of Joy, Dandy Day, Super Star, Love Poems and You’re Just My Type! You gotta love the one jumping into the waves!

Christy‘s beautiful Mermaid for You Flip-Flop mermaid is making a splash in her fantastic ink-blended ocean scene!

Jenn framed up her On the Beach scene using Tropical Leaves Backdrop! She added some images from Toucan Do It to drive home the tropical theme!

We will share Design Team inspiration for you over the next 2 weeks and we’ll announce our Featured Fawnatics and random winner for Challenge 103 – Little Things tomorrow!
