Hi Everyone
Snippet day .. .. and what a stroke of luck I had.
Hubby came home yesterday armed with a set of 5 A4 drawers he had bought as a treat for me .. .. thinking they would be great in my little craft pod. Bless xx
Of course .. .. everything gratefully accepted into the crafty area .. .. but as with anything new you try to fit into your craft space it always means moving loads of things around to fit them in. But one way or another you always manage it .. .. a bit like the Tardis on Dr Who LOL!!!
Anyway whilst moving everything around I found a small plastic box that contained just the thing for my snippet make for Pixie's Crafty Snippet Challenge.
Everything already printed and good to go and this is what I made:
As always, because it is Sunday, I am lazy and do not list what I have used .. .. .. but if you need to know then ask away.
I have also put a bit of fun on my side bar too.
Lots of you have said how much you enjoy my "theme" weeks .. .. .. and I do find it good for increasing card stocks for the "less needed" cards at this end .. .. .. so I have given you a choice of what you would like to see next week with a little poll. I have always wanted to try doing one of these so two birds with one stone.
Not long to choose though I'm afraid. Only thought of it this morning and it will run out tomorrow morning (just in case I am an early bird with my share of the day).
Notice I didn't put one that said "please yourself, we're not bothered" as that might have been the highest scorer. LOL!!!
Enjoy the rest of Sunday.
Tennis is on in the background .. .. if only I could understand how they score I am sure I would enjoy it more!!
Love

Hi Jules
Hope you are enjoying your weekend. I have the tennis on aswell but have been ironing quite a lot today! Paul has been mowing and strimming our grass because I don't expect he'll get a chance anytime next week with the weather forecast. Love your gorgeous card and the colours! I have just voted Ages on your poll!

What a treasure Hubby is coming home with lovely storage. Your dotty paper has made a gorgeous card too. It's great when you rediscover forgotten treasure.
We've just spent a fortnight explaining the tennis scoring to DD and she then asked today whether Nadal had won!!!! There is no hope!!!!!!
Have a great week.

Brilliant card as always Jules, and a lovely way to use up snippets. I found the hearts OK BTW :) Love, Di xx
I'd never say 'I'm not bothered,' I'd always say 'oo, whatever you decide to do is fabulous - fangirl squee!'
Ahem!
Do what you want to do, hun, and go where your mojo takes you. You have such talent. xxx
love Mags B x
Another adorable card, Jules! The little birds are just soooo sweet! I love it!!!
Great card Jules. I like the idea of a poll, although to be honest I love your cards so much I'm don't mind what theme you choose!
Hope the wedding work is going okay.

Brilliant card Jules, love the paper piecing. It amazes me when you get a new storage item for the craftroom how you ever managed to fit it all in without it, I have just gotten three and wondered where the stuff was appearing from lol Hugs, Amanda x
Hi jules - love the card - those birds are so sweet...... sorry I missed the poll ( I was glued to the tennis)!! However I admire all your cards so I'm still a winner.
Give your hubby an extra hug because he's one in a million....

Wow how fabulous Jules, looks like a few of us were moving things around in our craft rooms yesterday, me too.
Love this card what a super idea Hugs Elaine
Hello Jules, Shame about the tennis but Andy did very well to reach the final anyway. I think all your cards this week have been lovely and I particularly liked the Sunday Snippets card and Saturdays card which I thought was really gorgeous. Have you seen the new candi from Craftwork Cards called Sweethearts - they are so you! Love Pauline
Great card, love the image so sweet fab use of ya scraps hun!
Hugs Shell xx
Hi Jules! These snippets you discovered really are just perfect for your gorgeous card! Hugs, Lesley
Gorgeous card what a fantastic idea. Love the colours and the layout is fantastic. Caroline xxx
Hi Jules, another gorgeous snippet card - you're so creative!

I think I'm too late for the poll, but I did want to say a) I love your sweet lovebirds card!; b) great use of snippets!; and c) I don't think you should be using the 'kill two birds with one stone' phrase in the same post as the lovebirds. They have ears you know.
Love this card...so elegant, love how you throw something together from your scraps and come up with a card that looks a million dollars lol!!
Hugs,
Marjorie

Splendid card, Jules! I love the papers and the array of hearts made me smile.
