Results of Challenge #482

  

Hello folks - Di here, hopping in with the results from Challenge #482. 

Here are my 3 top picks (in entry order):

Carol L created such a lovely variation using the 'Fractured' technique.  What a great idea to add the pretty flowers centre stage and then add the same colour sentiment down in the bottom right hand corner!

Val really excelled at using up a ton of small snippets this week, to produce such a pretty scene. So imaginative and you do almost feel drawn in to give one of those cute kitties a little tickle under the chin!

And last but not least, Suzanne really went to town with a host of pretty colours for her snippety foliage card. So effective how stems are tucked into a slit in the card front panel. Lovely work!

Some wonderful inspiration from all of the 'picks', as well as everyone else. Thank you so much for playing along.

If you've been showcased, please feel free to collect your 'Top Pick' badge from HERE.

The randomly picked winner is:

 Alison C

Welcome to a new challenge in the Snippets Playground. All the card details are over on Pixie's Crafty Workshop HERE - as well as Dudley's latest 'Pupdate'.


These are the items making up the prize: two Stampendous stamp sets, namely, 'Wildflowers' and 'Bee Kind' ...... plus a stencil by AALL & Create called ''Bug Hotel'. Great for a touch of 'bokeh' background work! All items are from yours truly.

As always, the Snippets Challenge will run for two weeks and the Playground gates will close at 11am UK time on Saturday 22nd June. The gates will open again at midnight UK time on the same day. Mr Linky is below this post.

Please state what snippets you used on your entry, or add a photo of them, otherwise it won't count in the prize draw. 

Remember that we do reserve the right to delete non-compliant entries. It's very important to us to keep the Playground as a happy place to come and play - as well as making sure everyone plays fairly.

Results of Challenge #480

  

Hello folks - hopping in with the results from Challenge #480. 

Here are my 3 top picks (in entry order):

What a crisp and fresh die cut kite on a perfect cloudy sky background - made by Steph. Everything about this beautifully designed card is so pleasing on the eye. Lovely work!

I love herringbone design for using up snippets. Taking them one step further by then dry embossing the panel so that is appears to be quilted is such a terrific idea Alison - well done!

And last, but certainly not least, we have Carol G's entry with a gorgeous bunch of tulips taking centre stage. Lovely stencilled background too, a perfect way to show off the vivid flowers beautifully.  

As always, it was so hard to choose just three picks. Sarn and I always love all of your work and it's so heartwarming to see you playing along with us. Thanks to all of you Playmates!

If you've been showcased, please feel free to collect your 'Top Pick' badge from HERE.
