Results of Challenge #492

  

Hello folks - Di here, hopping in with the results from Challenge #492. 

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

Love this card, made by Pam! On her blog, Pam's photos are always quite small - but just LOOK at this gorgeous bee card, made extra large. I adore it - the wings are so, so sweet - the detail overall is lovely. Don't be shy Pam - your work is great! 

Donna brought this scrumptious card to share - along with a photo of her snippets (thanks for that Donna, it makes life easier for us). That die set is a real keeper - and what a wonderful result. I can almost taste those cookies! Very 'German Christmas Markets' - yummy!

Many of us really love this set of triptych dies (other versions are available) and I was delighted to see Liz using her Studio Light set. We often 'mutually enable' one another and Liz used her purchase so well. Wonderful colours, gorgeous snippetty die cuts - in short - a stunner!

As always, some really super entries from you - this 'picking' can get really tough, I had to leave a couple out this time and stick to three as in the rules. Thank you so much for playing along with us. 

** A little word folks, we DO ask that you, at the very least, say what snippets were used on your entry. Lately, we have had to quietly eliminate people from being a top pick, or from being in the prize draw, who just don't, or perhaps won't, comply with the simple challenge rule about identifying snippets used. We can't go hunting for clues, sorry.

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

The randomly picked winner is:



Please claim your prize by 11am UK time on 30th November by sending your name and address details via email using the Snippets Playground email address shown in the sidebar, with PLAYGROUND WINNER in the subject line.

If any of you are having trouble commenting, please see HERE for a possible solution.

Remember there's still nearly a week of Sarn's current challenge to go. If you haven't submitted a piece of homework yet, just scroll down to the previous post to find all the details.

Hugs, Di and Dudley xxx

Challenge #493

Hello Playmates!

Here's another chance to use up your snippets and join in with the Snippets Playground Challenge, with yours truly hosting for the next fortnight.

The details of the card below can be found on my personal blog HERE:

The prize for this challenge consists of a "Padded Quilt" 3D embossing folder (kindly donated by Miss Di), as well as a "Vintage Keys" stencil by Funky Fossil and a red rubber 'cling' set of stamps by Stampin' Up! called "Flowering Fields" from me. 

In order to play along, just follow our RULES, then bring your homework to the Snippets Playground and enter using Mr Linky (below). 

  • Please remember to say what snippets you used (or include a photo of them) - one or two of you have been forgetting to do this lately and may end up with lines as punishment if you don't watch out!
  • Please leave a comment advising whether you're just playing for fun or wish to be entered into the prize draw. Any entrant not leaving a comment to the contrary is deemed to be playing for fun, and will be excluded from the prize draw.

The Playground gates will clang shut on this challenge at 11am (UK time) on Saturday, 23rd November 2024. They'll reopen at midnight (UK time) the same day for the start of the next challenge. Winners outside the UK: Please remember that you may be charged fees and import duty on your prize - although Di and I always send them out clearly marked as "gifts".

Results of Challenge #491

Hello Playmates - Sarn here - popping back in the middle of Di's challenge, to share my Top Picks and the prize winner for Challenge 491.

My three Top Picks are as follows:

After a lot of fiddly die cutting and glueing together, Val (Aquarius) entered a lovely jolly snowman card using up lots of snippets.

I love all the elements Brenda used in the design this lovely card. She even used up some snippets of torn Washi tape!

This festive beauty was brought along by Vicky - so pretty in pink and I love the way Vicky used a non-Christmas stencil to create snow layers. Very effective.
