fancy a game of bingo...

Good morning everyone, thank you all so much for your emails asking how my neck is...its ok, still stiff and sore when I turn it but at least I can turn it now, which is progress...don't you just hate it when delivery people let you down, I bought a carpet cleaner (to clean my beige carpet that is showing the results of me walking around in bare feet inside and out) and was told it would be delivered yesterday morning...did it arrive, nope...rang the delivery people and its on its way...did it arrive...nope...so I had to make a quick trip to the supermarket after 6pm instead of our wandering coffee sipping time we usually go at...my Dad was flabbergasted at how little time it took us lol...now I have to start all over again today waiting and ringing etc aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh why cant people just deliver when they say or if there's a problem just let me know so I'm not hanging around like the ghost of Christmas past wandering past the window because I hear a van...bet you have been there too...right now enough complaining onto my card for today which is for our new challenge at Just Magnolia & hAnglar & sTanglar challenge and this weeks is our wonderful Donaldas choice and she chose a bingo challenge, I love it when you can chose what to use don't you and bingo challenge remind me of the one and only time I went to Bingo with my Mum, I fell asleep oops...she didnt take me again bless her lol...I chose this lush Tilda from the Magnolia Dreams collection called Beautiful Tilda I coloured her with distress inks and teamed her up with these stunning papers from the Echo Park Victoria Gardens paper pad aren't they beautiful, so fresh and bright, I also used a Prima Corina flower all these are from Bunny Zoe's Crafts...I finished with a Tim Holtz ticket, gorgeous blue gems and some seam binding scrunched into a bow...the fabulous sketch is from Cute Card Thursday challenge and I'm also entering it for the Stamp with Fun Summer challenge and Stampin' Royalty bring on the bling challenge...I'm stuck in again today of course so don't know if I will get out at all and please don't say its a good excuse to tidy my craft room, you know what happens when I do that...whatever your up to today have a fantastic one and when you have time pop on over to Just Magnolia and see the amazing creations from the rest of the team
