Here are my top picks (in entry order):

First and foremost, we have a *GOLD STAR* being awarded to LIA for her gorgeous new baby card, the detail is amazing and perfect use of snippets :

Next, I loved KATHY ASPER's autumnal snippets card, so clever to sprinkle glitter between the patchwork pieces:

Then I saw SANDRA HAWES' wonderful monochromatic card. Stunning and very elegant:

Last, but by no means least, is LIZ'S fabulous shaped card featuring a dinosaur. What fun and so perfect for a six year old's Birthday:

Challenge #515

Hello Playmates!

I’m hosting another fun Snippets Playground Challenge - so why not dive into your snippets mountain, make something with them, then come back to "show and tell" via Mr Linky!

Miss Di has been resting in a comfy chair in the Staff Room with Dudley dancing attendance on her and I’ve made sure she’s had a few of my homemade restorative “tonics”!. She still has some healing to do, but is feeling better and I am certain all your good wishes have helped speed her recovery. MWAH! 🥰

Details of the card below can be found on my personal blog HERE

The prize for this challenge consists of the Aall & Create Florastella stencil #53 and three clear polymer Crafty Roo sentiment stamps - one of which is demonstrated on my card because I have the same stamp in my own collection!

Please be sure to state what snippets you used on your entry (or you can add a photo of them if you wish). 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.

The Playground gates will close on this challenge at 11am (UK time) on Saturday, 27th September 2025. They'll reopen at midnight (UK time) the same day for the start of the next challenge. 

Happy crafting,

Love from me (Sarn), Miss Di and Dudley Dog xxx

Results of Challenge #513

Hello Playmates!

Sarn here - popping back in the middle of Di's challenge - to reveal my Top Picks and the prize winner for Challenge 513. 

Here are my top picks (in entry order):

I love this numeric card from KATHY K which could be used for either sex, and the sentiment is amusing. 

This stunning Christmas card from HELEN caught my eye as it's so striking with the black background and gold embossing.

This super CAS card by KATE L grabbed my attention because the colourful butterfly really draws the eye in. Great sentiment and the card proves that less is often more!

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

The randomly picked winner is:

Congratulations Gundi. Please claim your prize by 11am UK time on 20th September 2025 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.
