Bingo Valentine

I have a real weakness for these Jenni Bowlin bingo cards. You can see a couple of other things I've made with these cards - another love card and a new home card.

Vintage Love Sign

The base of this wooden sign is a $1 item I bought at the local grocery store. It had a tacky saying on it, so I just covered it over with some paint antiqued it with Distress inks. I added the bingo card and a fragment of an old love letter. The paper flower was also colored with Distress inks and shimmery paint. The piece was finished with some ribbon, trim and a button. Here's a close up look:
