March 2016 - "Bingo Grid" Challenge

Hi everybody!  And Welcome!

With some great creations being entered in the February "Bingo Grid" Challenge we decided to give you another grid of items to work with this month.

But First - The Winner Of The February Challenge!

Thank you to all who entered. We got a Random Number Generator to choose the winner, and the number chosen was ...

 so the winner is ...

with her creation "Album".

Congratulations!  Please grab your "I'm a Winner" badge from the right hand panel and E-mail your details, with "February DLD Challenge Winner" in the subject line, to dtdragonslairdesigns@gmail.com. We'll then get your voucher to you as soon as possible.

And Now Onto The March Challenge

As usual there's a £5 voucher, to spend in the Dragons Lair Designs Store, up for grabs for the lucky winner - who will be chosen by a random number generator at the end of the month.

As I said at the begining of this post, we have another "Bingo" grid of items you can craft with this month.  You can choose any three that appear in a straight line to include in your crafting project.  You can craft anything, and include anything else you want, provided you include (and list in your blog post) three items from a straight line.

So - which three are you going to choose?

Members of the design team can't wait to start visiting your blog posts and seeing what you've chosen to include in your creations.

To give you a little inspiration to get your creative juices flowing the design team have made the following creations to show you.

Gwyneth
Pink, Anything From Dragons Lair Designs & Parchment

The "Finch on Branch" digi stamp was used to make this card, putting the finch in a parchment birdhouse with lots of pink flowers and blossom around.

Susan

Anything from Dragons Lair Designs, Silver & Blue

Susan chose the "Lady Sillohette" image from Dragons Lair Designs and married it with elements from the "Deco Daze" collection to make this striking card.

Jacqui
Pink, Silver & Birthday

Jacqui made this lovely birthday card using items from the "Pansy Collection".  She's had fun silver foiling using her Todo machine as well.

Diane

Anything from Dragons Lair Designs, Silver & Blue

For this card Diane has used the sweet Baby Giraffe digi-stamp from DLD

Lynne
Anything from Dragons Lair Designs, Silver & Blue

Lynne's chosen an element from the Understated Elegance collection for her central panel.

Nan

Nan has used egg digi stamps and a background from the Heavenly mini collection from Dragons Lair Designs
