BINGO BOARD CHALLENGE



Well here I am, back after 5 long months. Lynne at Craft den has been so patient with me, and still kept me on the design team, and said I could join back in whenever I was ready. I haven't done any crafting at home for so long, I just haven't had any real interest in it. It's strange how you have no interest in something you love so much, when you are going through such a sad time. I am feeling so much stronger now, lots of people said I would. I have the most wonderful family who have helped me through. And I am so ready to move on. I am going to do lots more crafting, I'm going to join Slimming World tommorow, as I have been eating one to many chocolate bars lately ( comfort eating ). And I have asked my lovely Sister Ann to come along with me, so we can support each other.



Anyway this my card for the Bingo Board Challenge, I must admit when Lynne said the theme was Bingo, I thought I would decide to come back this week, what the hell am I going to do for Bingo, and it was a big relief when I found out what it really was. I have done a twisted Easel card, Sarah at Craft Den sent me one for my Birthday, and I loved it. I did the row on the bingo board diagonal which was Punches/die cuts. Flowers, and Lace/ribbons. All of which are my fave things. I do hope you like it. I would just like to say thank you to Lynne for being so patient, and having me back on the team. I am looking forward to working with all the new members of the design team,that have joined while I have been away. Looking forward to seeing all your work. Love Sandra x

  9. Hi Sandra,

    thanks for your sweet reaction on my blog so now I do the "return visit" and have a huge grinn on my face reading that you thought just like I did "BINGO.....what's that????? and why does this happen to me now that I am the GD?". Like crazy I went surfing the net to find a bingocard to download and finally asked Tamara for help because I didn't have a clue what to do, LOL!!!! But the theme is fun and your twisted easelcard is just lovely!

    Greetings from Holland, Irene

  10. Hello Sandra,

    It's so nice to see you blogging again. Thank you for the lovely comment on my blog.

    Your card is so sweet, love the image and the twisted easel is great.

    I am really glad you are feeling stronger. I really miss seeing you(I hope Ann is keeping okay too - say hello from me).

    I am feeling alot better than I was but I have been having a nightmare with my asthma and have been so poorly. I nearly ended up in Hospital again, but hopefully it will be a bit better now (fingers crossed). I need to join slimmers world with all these steriods I am on, lol!!

    I hope to see you soon too. Lots of love Kerry xxx
