Here's a card I put together with lots of snippets in red, white and black. I started with a left-over piece of text dsp from a previous cutting, adding a die-cut Cheery Lynn French Lattice in black right on top. The black scalloped circle was in my doo-dad box from a previous cutting and the bow was a die bought from Ebay that was cut from red and white snippets. I found an oval gemstone in my stash and popped it right in the center. The "happy" is a cut done with a SSS die, while the "birthday" is a cut done with a SNSS die. I added a touch of yellow Stickles to the flame that dots the letter "i" in the word birthday. I pulled out a matching red envelope and used another snippet of text paper to cover the flap to make this a matching set!
I'm sharing this with the Snippets Playground for weeks #289 and 290. The only requirement is to use snippets and I've made this mostly from snippets!
Also sharing with the Happy Little Stampers Anything Goes with Dies challenge.
Thanks ever so much for stopping by and do have yourself a fabulous Sunday!

ReplyDeleteA super snippets card Carol! Love the colours of course :) And I did giggle about you buying the label maker dies but not the stamps - I didn't even know they did matching dies :) Lovely to see you in the Playground!
