If you pop along to the Snippets Playground you will see that there are details of the second special Christmas challenge with some extra prizes to be won. For my card this time I've chosen to make yet another Christmas card, this time with a die cut wreath. I made my own card blank for this one which always leaves me with a useful Snippets strip and everything else was produced using bits and pieces from my vast Snippets collections. The wreath was die cut twice using two shades of green; robins were die cut from small Snippets of kraft and coloured using alcohol pens and a touch of coloured pencil; the bow from a tiny scrap of red, as were the berries on the sprigs. The final touch was a sticker from a well used set which I've had for a couple of years at least. Oh, I almost forgot to mention that I'd used a slatted die to cut the circle into the white square and backed it with a Snippet of blue printed paper, adding a cute little tag to the bow. Gosh that took me nearly as long to write as it did to make the card 🤪
