Hello everybody! Cebelica aka Maja here. I'm your host this time. :) Are you ready for another challenge? I sure hope you are because we are and we have another great challenge for your this time.

It's one of my favourites.

Get ready for BINGO! So much fun, right? ;)

Those of you who don't know how this works, don't get scared. It's very simple. :)

Check the bingo board our sweet Mandy made for this challenge. What you need to do now is to choose any line of 3 -

either horizontal (e.g. glitter, buttons, handmade embellishment/s),

vertical (e.g. glitter, punch/dies, lace) or

diagonal (glitter, flowers, gems) and create a card using the items from the line you chose.

If possible, please let us know which line you chose.

See, told you it was simple. ;)

I hope many of you will come play with us. We can't wait to see your creations!

At the moment we are focussing on providing miniature flowers made from genuine mulberry paper for crafts use - although we have a small selection of non -paper crafts too. Why mulberry paper? Because they are robust, realistic look and last longer than ordinary paper and it provides a sustainable income for people in the cottage industry. In due course we will be introducing more of other craft materials which is not related to mulberry paper.
