Saleabration Bingo was a Blast!!!

Last week , here in Wisconsin we had unseasonably warm days ….60 degrees in February…almost unheard of…it was great!  But then by the end of the week…temps dropped and we had big winds, sleet, hail, thunder, snow and ice all in one day… last Friday!  And of course that day was my Saleabration Bingo night.  So I was worried all day, since I had ladies coming in from out of town  and the driving was terrible….should I cancel????
But then I got an email from 3 of the gals coming from out of town just saying…”neither snow , nor sleet, nor rain…..” and I knew then Bingo Night was on!!
We had a great time!!  Here are some pictures of the fun!!

I wanted to color this in precisely, but was struggling how to achieve this neatly….then I thought Vellum!!!  So I cut my “window”out from Whisper White and stuck a square of Vellum Cardstock on the back.  Then colored in on the back of the vellum with our Many Marvelous Markers…and marvelous they are!!  Love them!!! 
20170207_151621
Calypso Coral, Wild Wasabi, Marina Mist, Daffodil Delight Markers

20170207_151600

20170208_173842
Add a square of Whisper White on the back of the Vellum Cardstock to keep the colors bright and vivid! Complete your card with layers, ribbons and pearls and you have a lovely card for any occasion!!
