Bingo Anyone?

No, it's not a game of Bingo unfortunately, but I have altered a Bingo board I bought on Monday.

To start, I coated all the sides with a mix of brown, white and black acrylic paint and used a crumpled piece of kitchen tissue to sort of stipple it. Then, I added some red ribbon and tied a couple of short strands of brown fibre near the knot.

I used Karen's masking tutorial to stamp the images (Annie collection by Lou and Karen and exclusive to Charmed) onto 260gsm card. Thanks for the instructions Karen, it worked a treat. These were coloured using my Prisma pencils and blending pencil. Not sure what I think to it, but I still haven't made some of the paper stumps. After cutting the images I stuck them down using foam pads. To make sure they stuck well, I added a drop of PVA glue to the side that would be sticking to the paint.

The wording was cut on my ROBO, stuck with PVA and doodled on.

The only sad thing, is that some or all of it will be covered with the paper I clip there reminding me of things 'TO DO'.

It's Easter at Crafty Muse

Well everyone, the latest challenge is up at Crafty Muse and this time, we'd like you to make an  Easter project. There's even a couple of freebie images and a PDF file of Easter sentiments for you.

Here's my Easter card, coloured with Prismacolours.  I've used an egg that Sammi gave us and one of the sentiments from the PDF file. To complete the card, I added a charm that says 'Live in the Light', some ribbon and stickles.

Take care, love and hugs
