On a roll....

Did these at High Halden Craft Club.

Take some wrapping paper and a cocktail stick!

Cut some snippets of paper, and use the stick to roll up tightly.
Slip them off the stick and cut into sections....


A piece of paper for the background,
stick the rolls on and add a star...


Here's another with plain background,
and a 'present' sticker for the 'pot'


Bit wonkier this one eh?

Good fun had by all!

This is a great way of using all those small bits of wrapping paper
left over, that are not quite big enough for that last little
present, so you have to cut into a new one,
I know you've been there and done THAT!!!


25th of the month and you know what that means.....
PLUS
It's a new week in the Snippets Playground
and there was lots of snippetty snippets used here!
See you there....

Leaflet


This one uses the dinky little leaf,
that I think might be my favourite.
I do like simple little things......


This again uses the same colours of Blackberry Bliss and Old Olive,
although my photographic skills make it appear black.

I hope I haven't bored you too much
with all the similar ones this week,
but just to prove they're all slightly different....



Have a fab weekend!

Here's another leafy design,
with double linen thread between scored lines.


Only one more to go this week promise!
You can see why I love this set though can't you?
Happy Crafting

Many thanks

Slightly different to yesterdays,
more scored lines,
and some snippets of card to layer up the leaves,
and a snippet of linen thread to tie it all together.....


I've been playing, but short on time,
so went with what was on the desk,
so hope you're not too bored yet,
there's a couple more to come!

My last visit to the Playground this week,
as I'm grounded for a few days lol.

Feel Better

Love Sassy Salutations for sentiments just that bit different,
including this get well alternative.


Blackberry Bliss and Old Olive was on the table,
and you must know the set by now?!


Stamped a row of leaves between scored lines
(that you can hardly see),
a die cut one raised on dimensionals,
and added some thick twine.

Hippity Hop to the Playground again
with the card and twine snippets.....


New Weekly Deals out today too,
so lots of feel good factor !

Hello

I needed to send a card to a Gent who's moved to a new house,
just to say we are thinking of him.


I took a snippet of Neutrals paper stack,
some snippets of old olive and blackberry bliss,
and a few stamped and die cut leaves.

Perfect for a gent, and for the time of year.
Have I mentioned I LOVE this set?!
Vintage Leaves.....awesome.

Lots of snippets mean a hop skip n jump to the Playground!

Among the Branches

I recently bought Sassy Salutations,
it's been in the catalogue for ages, 
but a customer bought it, and I fell for it.
That often happens when I see a set in the flesh.

So, took a piece of dotty paper,
added some elements from Among the Branches,
inked the edges of both, and added a smidge of glitter to the
baubles and snowflakes. 


You can't tell, but I used the In-Colours
Tip Top Taupe, Watermelon Wonder, Cucumber Crush and Mint Macaron.
That's another one done for the stash.
