BINGO! at 4 Crafty Chicks

Happy 4 Crafty Chicks Thursday! I am not sure about you, but here in central Alberta, we are LOVING this gorgeous Fall we are experiencing...the crisp, cool mornings turn into gloriously warm afternoons and the colors are just incredible right now - definitely MY favorite time of the year! I do like my winter months, but Fall is my ultimate fav :)

It is I, Lori, and I am here to give you the challenge for the week :) I decided I wanted to have a little BINGO fun this week so here is your chart:

You may choose any row - vertical, horizontal or diagonal - your choice! Here is what I came up with using the diagonal row "Flowers-Sentiment-Bling" - click here to see details on my BLOG

Leanne 

I did the bottom row: Flowers, Brads, Die Cuts

Welcome back, everyone!  Melissa here and it's time for another 4 Crafty Chicks' Challenge!  This week I'm your hostess-with-the-mostest and it is with a heavy heart that I let you all know this will also be my last challenge with the 4CC.  I have decided to pursue some other endeavors both creatively and personally.  I want to thank each and every one of you for your kind comments and wonderful creations over the years - I had a lot of fun.  :)

But enough of that - I've got a fun sketch for you all to play with this week.  I am sure there will be MANY different interpretations for this one:

I went with a very literal interpretation for my card - perfect for using up some of those leftover scraps:
