Hi there, we went away recently and I was fortunate to be able to take some crafting with me.
I decided to take some unfinished projects, and a stack of snippets, some of which were so tiny but perfect for die cutting small embellishments.
This card evolved from unused sentiments, layered poinsettias and snippets of card,
including the gold strip, and the striped one.
I don’t throw strips away, as they can always be used for something.
It's a good way of using up scraps, especially of expensive card and paper.......die cut them, using all those little dies.....they'll come in useful one day!
Below are just a few of the snippets left over.
I really enjoyed putting cards together on the hoof using just scraps of paper and card,
it's a great way to get the creative juices flowing.
I’m entering the
Pixie's Snippets Playground - Challenge #412
where there's super prizes, and lots of ideas to use up those snippets !

Well done for making that beautiful card using some of your snippets, looks very luxurious. I've been playing with fabric snippets today, sewing for a change - yes I have a mountain of those as well 😉
ReplyDeleteThis festive make is brrrr-illiant Lesley! I agree that die cutting little snippets is a super way to use them up - and if you have a little cache of them, it's a quick way to get a card made!

PS: So glad you were able to sneak round the back and join in the Playground fun! Hic! xxx
ReplyDeleteWhat a super card Lesley and great use of little snippets. I trust you didn't take a full sized die cutting machine away with you though?
