HINT: Today's Questions include using the Search Features in the SNS OLS.

There are a total of 6 opportunities to have your name submitted to Random.org on Saturday. 

Anne's Card uses the same technique in the darker layer matting the mermaid.

1. (1 entry) Do you use coffee fliters to "catch" loose glitters and embossing powders as you play with your products?

2. (1 entry) Do you understand what Pinterest is all about and how it can help you be organized?

3. (1 entry) Is word #93 something that should be on the list? (giggle) Or is it a mistake that the bingo caller made, and it should be something else? Can you guess which product it should have been?

4. (up to 3 entries) In Today's featured tutorial multiple embossing powders can be utilized to achieve interesting effects. Similar techniques may be used on regular cardstock, however, the "finish" or "shine" will be different. The texture will also be different. What do the finished yellow coffee filter papers in Shona's tutorial remind you of?

Be sure to send an email to SNS_Bingo@tampabay.rr.com with your name first in the Subject Sentence followed by the date of the challenge questions.

Hope your week-end was an improvement over last week's weather! Our scenario has certainly changed here in central Florida! Now we have weather similar to late April - early May. I feel for Mother Nature. She is obviously going through labor pains. (sigh).

What is a Reveal?

A few of our bingo players said they did not know what a Sparkle N Sprinkle REVEAL was. There is one happening right now (February 1 - February 3). At the beginning of each month, we "reveal" our new stamp sets. At the same time, Jazzy Jill "reveals" the new Technique Video Kit because one of the new sets is included in the kit. Kits may be purchased as a stand-alone item, or you may become a Technique Video Kit member for 12 months and automatically receive the monthly kit at a discount. All the newly-revealed stamp sets are available individually at 20% off until the 3rd of each month.

Customers who wish to order ANY other products,  may order them and have them sent with their Video Kit in order to save on shipping expenses.

Green Nugget
A nice green color great for any season!

Everyone can view the Technique Video of the month. They are free and available to help crafters create interesting paper craft projects using glitters and all SNS's fine products. Just follow us on YouTube to receive an e-mail notification for any of our YouTube uploads. Once you have clicked on the light grey SUBSCRIBE box, click on the little "gear" to the right of it. A small window pops up. Click on "send me updates". From now on any newly-uploaded Videos will generate an e-mail notification to you.
