A New Challenge at Catch the Bug this week - It's B-I-N-G-O Time!!

It's Saturday, which means a new challenge over at Catch the Bug today! This week would typically be in the Catch the Bug rotation of challenges as a sketch challenge; however, the DT has decided to change things up a bit! Now we are hosting a monthly B-I-N-G-O Card Challenge, and this is our first! No worries, folks......we're still having sketch challenges! You can now find our sketch challenges every-other Sunday for our Stella Says Sketch Challenges! Cool, huh?! A new challenge type, plus we're keeping a fave around for you, too! Woohoo!

Without further ado , here is the FIRST-EVER Catch the Bug 

Bingo Card:

Isn't this BINGO Card the coolest?! Our very own Ms. Min (Asst. DT Coordinator) put this together! You will definitely know it's a

Bugaboo BINGO when you see it, I think! :0)

I chose to use the middle horizontal row of requirements for my card this week (Starts with "E", Ribbon, Die-Cut). I did some embossing for the "E" item. :0) My sentiment is a die-cut, as is the card base, itself. The ribbon.........well, there's an obvious! lol!

My card features one of my favorite Bugaboo Stamps character, the little Sunbonnet girl!

This is an older image called Strawberry Sunbonnet - Jam. Her, and the other great Sunbonnet images, are available in the Bugaboo Stamps Store!

Bugaboo Stamps Sponsors Holly Jolly Christmas Challenge

Bugaboo's Stella is on the move again, today! 

 She's headed over to Holly Jolly Christmas to sponsor their challenge!

The challenge theme this week is to use the colors 

GREEN, RED, BROWN

For my card, I used the Bugaboo Stamps image, 

Poppi - Xmas Tree.

I was really wanting to ues my poinsettia Spellbinders die for this when I was assigned to this challenge.

It didn't turn out quite how I wanted it to, so I started adding other die cuts to it, using MS branch punch, Memory Box Elegant Scrollwork die and a Prima leaf. I added some SU ribbon to make the bow.

I hope you've been inspired by my card, and that you hop over to the Holly Jolly Christmas blog to get a head start on your holiday cards for later this year! (Hey....it's never too early for that in my opinion! lol!)
