Sunday Snippets

Hi Playmates!

After all that chocklit last weekend, I've got some good old-fashioned jelly babies and wine gums in my satchel to keep your sugar high going this week! I also have a little flask of something to spice up your coffee too!

For my homework this week I made a DL sized card from an A4 sheet of 300gsm white card. Then I grabbed some foliage dies and set about die cutting some snippets of card. I added brown and burgundy splatters to the card front before taking time to arrange the foliage in the vase. The "vase" is simply a bit I chopped off the larger burgundy square of card shown in my snippets picture. 

Snippets used

I'm hosting a new challenge over at the SNIPPETS PLAYGROUND for the next fortnight. So why not take the opportunity to use up some of your snippets (scraps/leftovers), then come over to the Playground for a 'show and tell' via Mr Linky.

HAPPY CRAFTING.

  5. A beautifully elegant floral arrangement. Afraid I'll have to pass on the sweeties - they're not suitable for vegetarians 🙄

  11. This looks very elegant with the rather Ikebana like look to the foliage filled vase, and love that you cut that just from a rectangle of card which works brilliantly Sarn. x
