Challenge #495

Hello Playmates!

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

The details of the tags (below) can be found on my personal blog HERE:

DECEMBER CHALLENGES AND PRIZES:

We are doing something a little different for our two December challenges this year

Miss Di is emptying the Toy Box of all things festive and with the help of her Christmas Elf (aka Dudley) she is busy bundling together 4-5 Christmas-themed items at a time, to make up BUMPER MYSTERY PARCELS for FOUR LUCKY WINNERS PER CHALLENGE (so there will be EIGHT WINNERS for December). To make life easier for Di, you won't be able to choose a prize - it will be pot luck - but she guarantees that all winners will get a lovely festive surprise in the post during January.

In order to play along, just follow the RULES, then bring your homework to the Snippets Playground and enter using Mr Linky (below). There is no theme to follow . . . it's anything goes, so long as you have used at least one snippet on your homework.

  • Please remember to say what snippets you used (or include a photo of them). We are no longer chasing playmates for details of their snippets. If it is not clear what snippets have been used in an entrant's blog post, the entry will automatically be excluded from being a Top Pick or a prize winner.
  • Please leave a comment advising whether you're just playing for fun or wish to be included in the mystery 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, 21st December 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". 

Dates for your diary

December Challenge Results will be posted on 29th December 2024 (for Challenge #495) and 12th January 2025 (for Challenge #496).

Love and hugs from me and my partners in crime, Miss Di and Dudley Dog - who is sending you an excited 'woof' xxx

Great tags Sarn, and thanks to you and Di for having this challenge so I can get those Christmas cards made on time every year! See you in the treehouse. I'm smuggling in some Bailey's and home made biscotti to keep us all warm and happy :)

  9. After a long time, I'm finally back and I had a lot of fun using up leftovers and came up with so many new ideas. I hope I can manage to take part regularly again.
    The little gift tags are great and a nice, quick craft idea if you're still missing some. Oh, a surprise prize. I'd love to be surprised.
