CONGRATS, HEATHER!

You won Round 3 of BINGO by getting the X configuration. It took a lot of numbers, but you did it. Your prize is a $10 Gift Certificate to JessicaLynn Original stamps. Don't forget there is a new release coming on February 1st.

Now, on to Round 4. During the summer when we played BINGO, it took forever (it seemed) to get a winner. We must have lots and lots of cards for this round, so get busy ladies! Here is the "H" configuration in pics. This is what you will need to win Round 4.



ROUND 4, DAY 1

We will start this round with five numbers.

G58 - Daily
O72 - Alex
N38 - Wanda
I27 - Cathy
I23 - my card below

Here is another of the cards I made for VSN which I'll put here for an extra number.



This card used the Polished Stone technique and I just love the way it turned out. My DH loves it, so he's getting it for his birthday next month! It's looks a little out of focus but I think it's because of the background. The camera probably had a difficult time with the auto-focus. Does this mean I need a fancy-schmancy SLR digital camera. Yes, it does, but I won't be getting one!

Supplies:
Cardstock: White Glossy, Black, Pale Plum, Elegant Eggplant
Image: Lovely As A Tree
Inks: Palette Hybrid Black, Wild Wasabi re-inker, Elegant Eggplant re-inker, Soft Sky re-inker, Metallic Copper Alcohol Ink
Accessories: Black brads, knitting yarn

Wow, Barb, stunning. I have never tried the polished stone technique...sigh, another thing to add to my list. Love the result on your card. I think I must get this stamp set during Sellabration; it is a classic for sure. Thanks for sharing, and I'm envious that you have your DH's card made a whole month before his birthday! I'm usually scrambling the day/night before my DH's b-day.

Barb, what is the challenge this round? And, do 3-d stamped items count too? Or just the ones we have already been doing?
