Challenge #434

Wasn't 'Christmas in July' fun in the Snippets Playground? Mind you, the snow machine WAS taking it a bit far Sarn, even though it was genius to fill it with teeny white paper snippets. I had to borrow Len's garden leaf blower/sucker to clear the residue up! We hope our Christmas in July fun has helped some of you on your way to starting to make your 2022 Christmas cards .... and also possibly given you some ideas for cocktails!

Straight onto my snippets card:

All the details, as well as Dudley's latest escapade (sigh), are over on Pixies - HERE.

The prize for this fortnight is:


Three gorgeous 'Beecrafty' (I so would love to keep them!) stamps from Brenda and also a La-La-Land 'Stitched Scallops Edger' die, which comes from the toy box (I snagged a real bargain at the time!). If you live outside the UK,  please remember that you may be charged fees and import duty - although we always send prizes clearly marked as "gifts".

As always, the Snippets Challenge will run for two weeks and the Playground gates will close at 11am UK time on Saturday 20th August. The gates will open again at midnight UK time on the same day. Mr Linky is below this post.

Love and hugs from Dudley (for the moment known as the 'Phantom Piddler') - and Di,

  2. Now that I satisfied my curiosity by zipping on over to your personal blog to read about Dudley's misadventures, I am back to ooh and aah over your gorgeous card. I love the embossed background and the modern image. What a surprise to see that you paper pieced the landscape and sky with ombre paper! I was sure you had ink blended it and colored with markers. Yes please to this lovely prize package. The silhouette floral and plant stamps are so beautiful and I do love that scalloped border die.
    I somehow ended up missing the deadline on the last challenge, which still boggles my mind. I must have had too much eggnog in celebration of Christmas in July..but I've cleared my head now in preparation for the next Snippets round.
