Results of Challenge #532

 

Hello Everyone!

Di here - popping back in the middle of Sarn's challenge - to reveal my Top Picks and the prize winner for Challenge #532.

Here are my top picks (in entry order)

I'm starting off with a special *Gold Star* for our Playmate Viv's entry - HERE. Snippets can be leftover fabric, ribbon, lace etc - besides card and paper and other things and this is the most beautiful example of 'slow stitching', mindful and relaxing. Viv - this really is stunning:

The first of my three fortnightly picks, in numerical order, is Jules with this adorable snippets card! Such a cute image - Penny Black never grows old and is always a real delight. The design, papers and assembly are really lovely Jules:


Then Pauline rushed in, waving THIS stunning monochromatic card - wow! Super splashes of orange shades and beautifully designed and made Pauline. The smaller butterfly atop the stencilled one is so clever - love it!

And, last but not least, Diane H brought a brilliant snippets card along to share with us. Loads of snippets used - and in a variety of colours too. But, they work together perfectly - Diane's clever design has taken care of that! Nice work Diane:

Challenge #533

Hello Playmates!

Sarn here, hosting another fun Snippets Playground Challenge for the next fortnight. Looks like we're in for a mini heatwave, so the paddling pool may well make an appearance!

Details of this ATC can be found on my personal blog HERE:

I rummaged in the Toy Box and put together this lovely trio of "Dragonfly Dreams" products designed by Hazel Eaton for Studio Light - which you can have lots of fun mixing and matching. It comprises: an A6 sized background stamp (top left), a dragonfly stamp & die set (top right) and a dragonfly tag set of dies (bottom centre). For your inspiration, see HERE for a project I made using my own dragonfly stamp & die set.

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, 6th June 2026. They'll reopen at midnight (UK time) the same day for the start of the next challenge. 

Happy crafting,

Love from Miss Di, Dudley Dog and me xxx

Results of Challenge #530

  

Hello Everyone!

Di here - popping back in the middle of Sarn's challenge - to reveal my Top Picks and the prize winner for Challenge #530.

Here are my top picks (in entry order)

First pick is Kath with a super snippets card. I love seeing cards where the focus is on using purely snippets, in a way that many of us can use as inspiration, this card fits the bill perfectly:

Next came Gail with a perfect desert scene, using plenty of snippets as well. It's a delightful card and there was a deceptive amount of detail in creating it - great work:

And, last but not least, Tina raced in waving her entry.  A perfect rainy day card and one I would love to CASE at some point. So clever to stencil leaving the area underneath the umbrella dry. Gorgeous work Tina!
