You Make Me Quiver - Magnolia-licious 'Anything Goes or Bingo'

Hello.

This is a midway reminder of our 'Bingo or Anything Goes' Challenge at the Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog.  There's one more week to go before the end of the challenge.    

Here's what I've created for the challenge.


For my card I chose to work with the Bingo board's bottom horizontal row--3 pattern papers, two stamps, charms (see the Bingo board below).

The sentiment 'You make me quiver' was a freebie from TLC Creations (thanks, Paulette).  I thought it would be perfect to go with the cupid image.


I'm not sure what this type of fancy-fold card is called.  I saw someone's card that she said she made it using a silhouette cameo.  Since I don't have (can't afford...lol) that machine, I made my own template.  I played around with the measurements and settled on those that would give me 6" x 6" card when folded.


Anyway, I'm pretty happy with what I came up with.
Edited:  I've posted the template for this card. If you're interested, you can find it HERE.

I hope you'll join our challenge.  This is the Bingo board that you've been given to work with.


Please hop over to the challenge blog, HERE, to get complete details of the challenge and how you can play along with us.  Don't forget to check out what my teammates have created to inspire you. There's also a prize of a $20 Gift Certificate from Magnolia-licious.


Here's a closer look at the two Magnolia Stamps images being featured--masking techniques used to create the scene.

- Flower Cloud, also from the With Love Collection 2013
