SUNDAY SNIPPETS

Hi Everyone

I hope you have all had a good weekend.

Some of mine has been spent in the craft pod .. .. .. and part of that time was dedicated to making a snippet card for taking over to the Snippets Playground Challenge.  No theme to follow other than to use up some of your leftovers in your creation.

It was super good news to know Di is now well enough to rally us all round again after her tumble which injured her arm and hand.  The word is that she tumbled climbing up the ladder into the treehouse, but I have my suspicions that she may have been being a bit "over-zealous" on the trampoline (again) and was attempting after doing back-flips, to jump high enough to fling herself through the air straight into the entrance of the treehouse - avoiding the use of the ladder completely!  

Do we have CCTV in the playground?

Anyway, this is my offering .. .. .. 

This used:

Papers and card are all snippets .. .. .. but unfortunately I forgot to take a photograph of my "before" ingredients .. .. .. but there are remnants below which I have just dragged out of the craft pod bin or were floating round for future use. 
Sentiment: MFT Die-namics Die "Thanks"
Spellbinders Heart Die
Paper Bow:  Creative Expressions Die "Ribbons and Bows"
My Trusty Sewing Machine
The backing card and papers were already cut to size and were sitting in a box waiting to be used.

There is a tiny matching heart I managed to cut from the leftovers too.  I thought it would be nice tied to a thank you present sometime to give to someone along with my card .. .. .. .. .and that is me for today.

Off now to see if I can backflip and land in the treehouse to deliver my creation.  Wish me luck!  Always super magical in the tree house once it is dark .. .. all the fairy lights make it so magical.

Hope you all have a good week ahead.

  4. Oh gosh! Don’t you go attempting that trampoline treehouse entrance too! We don’t want 2 of you out of action!

    It’s a lovely snippets card you’ve made her Jules. Thanks for coming to play in the Snippets Playground. See you up in the treehouse shortly- but please go carefully! Xxx

  5. Fabulous card as always and a great use of some of your snippets. CCTV in the Playground, now there's a thought. Could maybe require censoring do you think? Your post really made me smile - take care when doing back flips or 'elf and safety' will have to be called in 🤣.Your snippets pic made me think you'd cut out a bikini till I realised it was the bow. Hugs
