I'm off to visit the Playground again with my current Snippets make and this time it's a Christmas card which as it happens was inspired by a design from Pete Hughes of Sizzix - see Sarn's post HERE. Great minds think alike they say. Mine uses one of his ideas for constructing a reindeer from die cut shapes and I've chosen to just use a head and shoulders view within a die cut circular frame. I started by cutting the pieces and building up the reindeer before deciding just what form the card would take. Having decided on going relatively CAS I cut out two matching frames using a stitched detail die and a smaller plain circle die. These were layered together adding a backing of a blue circle with a pattern of die cut holes to represent falling snow. Once assembled the circle was simply glued to a white square and the sentiment added. I actually remembered to take a photo of the small snippets left over. As usual everything on this card came from my snippets collection apart from the card blank.
