Hi Playmates
I'm submitting the following card as homework for the new SNIPPETS PLAYGROUND Challenge.

| The small square of white card and the orange mount are both snippets. |
Miss Di is hosting the Snippets Playground for the next fortnight and there's an OPTIONAL THEME for you to play along with. It's still ANYTHING GOES, but if you wish, you can make your project using an Autumn/Hallowe'en theme or just use their associated colours. Still only one entry, as usual.

| Much happier with this drawing, so I coloured it in with Distress Inks & added clouds & the sentiment. |
Hallowe'en Party!
Remember Di is hosting a Fancy Dress Hallowe'en Party tomorrow night. I know lots of you have been busy making your costumes. We have a few frightful and ghoulish cocktails ready for you up in the Treehouse - witch(!) has been fully decked out with cobwebs and carved pumpkins etc (actually, we just didn't clean the Treehouse for a month so those fake cobwebs are REAL!). Grab your broomstick and come for a ride! Di's been busy making Pumpkin Soup in one of the cauldrons and I've been busy making Witches Brew in the other, plus there's lots of crusty rolls and jacket spuds to help you mop up some of that Brew!
Bonfire Party!
Next weekend, we'll be setting light to a big bonfire and cooking jacket spuds, toasting crumpets and enjoying some hot soup. Might even be a sing song around the fire - but no fireworks cuz Playground Pets don't like the loud noise! Anyone seen the head of our Guy Fawkes? It's gone missing! DUDLEYYYYYY!




Oh my Sarn, your drawing is awesome! And I don't know why you didn't loved your first attempt! Anyway, your pumpkin looks delicious and such fabulous watercolouring! It's great that you made your own cloud template with a snippet, too! Great sentiment, always love positive thoughts! :)
ReplyDeleteReal cobwebs on the tree house??? Fantastic!!! :D I can take some big spiders from my garden, if they don’t fall off the broom on the way. And I have also a small bats family that lives in the porch under my house, I will ask them to come with me! :D
Hugs
Who needs stamps when you can draw eh?? Brilliant pumpkin design. You've made excellent use of some of your snippets, snippeteers never waste anything 🤣. The Playground certainly sounds like a fun place to be at the moment.
ReplyDeleteAs Val said and it's perfect for the option this time round.

Amazing drawing and card!
ReplyDeleteYou are soooo clever, fabulous pumpkin Sarn, looks great with the clouds behind. I’m up for your witches brew, but will have to wear my hat as I soooooo don’t like cobwebs or what lives in them! Xxx
ReplyDeleteWow what a brilliant drawing, us there no end to your talents Sarn?? Love the colouring too

Brilliant card Sarn, your pumpkin is fabulous. I once went to a drawing workshop where we had to draw and paint a bowl of cherries. When I showed my hubby, he thought it was a bowl of tomatoes. When I showed my class of four and five year olds the following day, they could see it was cherries. My drawings are obviously the standard of a typical Reception class child! 🤣
ReplyDeleteSee you in the Treehouse tomorrow. I’ll be the witch with the green hair. 🧙 xx
You are a Drawing Diva Sarn! Love that you just quickly sketched a pumpkin and grass and inked in a few casual clouds like a total professional!! Love this so much. By the way, we could have Bangers (aka sausages) instead of fireworks... they get Eva's vote! Hugs, Vicky xxx
ReplyDeleteFabulous! Your pumpkin looks as good as some of the digital ones I’ve seen. Now there’s an idea - Sarn’s Digi stamps! Don’t know what you put in that Witches Brew but I’m still feeling the after effects😁😁
ReplyDeleteWhat fab drawing matey, I actually like both but agree in preferring the second! Cracking make and a fab idea to make your own cloud mask too
ReplyDeleteHappy Tuesday, sorry to be late to the party!

Oh! I just lost my comment! Just to say that I LOVE your pumpkin with the soft clouds and glimpses of pastel blue sky! I'm so relieved that you're not into skeletons and other horrors we see representing All Hallows' Eve! Very tasteful.
