Deck The Halls at the Snippets Playground

Today's card is for a very special occasion over at Pixie's Crafty Workshop

where there is a special christmas challenge

Pixie's Snippets Playground - Challenge #418 


Lots of super prizes if you enter with a christmas themed project using snippets


I'd seen an idea, that sparked an idea in my head. I sat down to try it out. and one of those rare moments I was pleasantly surprised at how it turned out. As ever, it's better in real life, honest!


Step one, glue strips of designer series paper snippets to some spare card or copy paper. (See below).
Then stamp and cut out your images, in this case, using a Punch.



I then stamped a bough to hang my baubles, glued them in place,
added sentiment, some metallic pearls, and gold bows from snippets of thread.


I matted it onto another snippet of paper to give a nice border.
I then used another snippet of paper to decorate the envelope flap, and stamped the same images.


I do hope you'll join in! There'll be mulled wine and sausage rolls up in the Tree House,
Maybe even mince pies?! That's as long as Miss Di and Dudley don't eat them all haha.


See if you can win the keys to the Playground.

  7. I've hopped over from Pixie's to see your card. I love this idea. I just purchased some ornament dies and this idea would be perfect for the shapes. Lovely work!
