Challenge #445 - Show us your Snippets!

Hello Playmates! Sarn here . . .

Today we are celebrating!

Celebrating WHAT? I hear you ask! Well, it's Di's ELEVENTH BLOGOVERSARY, that's what!

In order to celebrate we are offering another £50 gift voucher (or overseas equivalent) for one lucky Playmate. As before, the winner will need to choose their favourite craft store, which MUST offer gift vouchers. There is NO CASH ALTERNATIVE. Once the winner has nominated a store, I will arrange for them to receive the voucher. In most cases, an order worth £50 qualifies for free postage, but in any case, any postage/mailing charges incurred for items ordered using the prize voucher must be paid for by the winner. 

In order to qualify for the prize our usual rules apply (i.e. there's no theme) but JUST FOR THIS CHALLENGE, you MUST ADD A PHOTO to your blog post showing the snippets used in making your project. The need for a snippets photo is NOT a new general rule - although both Di and I love it when you show us your snippet photos.

Here's my homework, the details of which can be found on my personal blog HERE:

So, please do come and join in some Playground fun by using up snippets on a project, then submit your "homework" using Mr Linky (below). Remember to ADD A PHOTO OF THE SNIPPETS YOU USED and leave a comment saying YES PLEASE (or similar) if you wish to be included in the draw for the prize.

The Playground gates will clang shut on this challenge at 11am (UK time) on Saturday, 21st January 2023. They'll reopen at midnight the same day for the start of the next challenge.

  20. Both you and Di combining in this challenge was a wonderful idea, and congrats on your 11th anniversary! If memory serves me correctly, I've been here since Di took over the reins and it's been a great experience for all those years! I just love this great little tea bag gift you created! You always keep me chuckling and inspired with what you design and I thank you for keeping this challenge going. If not for the snippets playground, I'd have had to build on an extra room by now to house all my snippets, so again - a hearty and grateful THANK-YOU! It would be difficult to turn down such a prize so it's a yes please for me! Hugs!

  27. Happy New Year!! This is still one of my very favorite challenges. I just love using up my scraps! Sarn, your little tea bag holder is adorable! This is such an AMAZING prize, but I am going to say I'm playing just for fun. I've discovered I have way too much "new" stuff that I've never played with yet. Anyone else in that boat?

It's always my favourite challenge to join in with, although I don't think I'll ever get to the bottom of my Snippets Mountain. 🤣 I love your little tea bag project Sarn, what a lovely idea.

  30. Sorry not to have come to visit sooner to congratulate Di on this 11th blogaversary, and you too of course Sarn now you are Di's partner in crime..lol. I usually use Firefox most of the time, but now a lot of commenting, including here, has to be done on Chrome, and invariably I have to remember to come back and comment on Chrome, and for one reason or another don't get back! Thank you for another great prize too, so generous! I will be a 'yes please' if I get a card entered in time. x

    1. Odd you should say that Pat - I've sensed that Firefox and Chrome are going in different directions at times. Sometimes I can't see my Sainsbury's grocery shopping properly using Firefox, yet when I flip to Chrome - it's fine! It looks as if we really can't get it right for everyone - so we're just soldiering on as best we can! xx
