DIGISTAMPS 4 JOY CHALLENGE #54 :: BINGO WITH A DIFFERENCE

For this new challenge we have something (we think) is a unique challenge theme ...

BINGO ...... BUT WITH A DIFFERENCE
 
Here is your bingo card :
 
Horizontal lines 1,2, 4 and 5 indicate what NOT to add to your papercraft creation.
Horizontal line 3 (the centre line) is open to your interpretation ...
So if you look at it, it's pretty simple!!
Here is how I interpreted it:

The image featured on my card is "Minnie-me Mouse", one of my own drawings as a digistamp in the Digistamps 4 Joy store, and it's coloured using alcohol markers (Spectrum Noir) and a white gel pen for the detailing.

Here is a better look at the image:

The card is constructed from the following items from my stash:
white CS card base
pink CS mat
blue striped DP offcut
diecut using blue/white floral offcut of DP
pink and blue square diecuts using offcuts
various roses, pink lace flowers
pink and blue satin ribbon
metal butterfly charm
blue floral sequins sewn on

NB : There is some really old stuff on my card - I discovered some treasures on emptying a box from the back of my stash cupboard, so this stuff is more than 4 years old (cos that's when I last emptied that cupboard - LOL!):
pink textured cardstock used for the diecut
blue sequins
pink lace flowers  

Click HERE to link your entry to the challenge, for a chance to win lovely images of your choice from the store.

And so, finally, I would like to add my card to these challenges:

ANYTHING GOES, #79, ‘ANYTHING GOES’ – LOVE LOVE LOVE anything goes!
EMERALD FAERIES, #35, USE A CHARM’ – I used a metal butterfly charm
BEARLY MINE, #59, ‘FLOWERS GALORE’ – lots of flowers here if you count the flower sequins
DIE CUTTIN’ DIVA’S, #89, ‘ANYTHING GOES” – My dies are from Simply 2-DIE-4 (square o1 scallops 4”)
OLDIE BUT A GOODIE CHALLENGE, ‘SPOTS AND STRIPES’ – pink CS, sequins and lace flowers are really old!
