ConBC #11 Anything Goes with featured BINGO card + #10 Winners and Top Picks

Did anyone else sing "SANTA" to the tune of "Bingo" during December?

I did!! Our honorary granddaughter is almost 34 months and she loves to clap and jump to the song videos like S-A-N-T-A. S-A-N-T-A....

Our theme is always anything goes with the featured BINGO card. Choose one letter in the word BINGO and use at least three items in that column on your project. You must state in your blog post the column and the specific items used. This is not your typical BINGO card where you go up and down, left and right and diagonally. To make this more fun, you can only go up and down using the columns. There is a FREE space in each column that you are welcome to utilize if you'd like. You cannot mix and match columns - you can only use one column under one letter.
