I've used more of my snippets and another small slim card to play along in the Snippets Playground latest challenge. This is a 3" x 8" card blank - odd proportions but I'm sort of getting used to them in my efforts to use them up. I trimmed a snippet of patterned paper to slightly smaller than the card then pulled out a scrap of card from my home made backgrounds collection and stamped some strange birds which were then fussy cut (no matching dies sadly). Some extra colour was added using pencils. The branches were die cut from snippets of brown card and the words stamped onto snippets of white and also fussy cut. The Playground gates are open for two weeks and there is a great prize on offer as usual.
Remembered to take a photo of what I used 😉
Background - printed from a MCS CD (probably no longer available)
Birds and Words - Aall & Create Strange Birds set
Branches - die from a SU set
What fun quirky birdies Val, most of the MCS designs are still available, but on USB'S these days.

ReplyDeleteHi Val,
ReplyDeletethis is wonderfil snippets card and those birds are very unusual and beautifully fussy cut out too.
That size card really lends itself to snipopets doesn't it.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
