Hi Everyone
Here at last with my snippet makes of the day .. .. but sadly only two this week :-( (Slacker!! LOL!!)
The day has just disappeared!! It is the last day of hubby's holiday and we have been trying to cram more and more into it!!
Lots of lovely rain last night that has started to fill our empty water butt .. .. but it did make the ground rather heavy to dig this morning. But not to worry as every bit of work done out there is another step in the right direction.
So enough of the excuses woman and show your snippet makes .... ... tee hee!!!
There might only be two but at least they are two I like .. .. which always helps LOL!!!
One little tip that you might find useful is that when making the little curled roses I have found using my old quilling tool really useful in helping to curl the paper round and hold everything in place whilst the glue sets.
So who kept me company in my snippet mission last week .. ...
First up was Amanda who made two lovely snippet makes this week. Both were lovely and completely different to each other. You can find Amanda's fabby makes here.
Then Kaz came along to play. Kaz followed a sketch to use up some of her snippets and the finished result was great. Just goes to show you don't need much paper to make a special something. You can find Kaz's creation here.
Next came Lisa with her great make. Lisa keeps waving this fabulous stamp under my nose .. .. I just know I am going to have to succumb sooner or later LOL!!!. I love the neat clean look of this make .. .. plus quite a few snippets were lovingly used in the making of this project. You can see it here.
Then last, but not least cam my regular playmate Mags. Mags really came up with a brilliant make this week as not only did she use up some of her paper snippets she also used and recycled lots of other interesting things too. I was well iimpressed with the finished look. Take a little peep here to see waht Mags created.
Thank you very much ladies for keeping me company this week and for sharing all your inspiration for using up some of these snippets that are just too gorgeous to not use.
I hope you get chance to visit their lovely blogs.
I hope you get chance to visit their lovely blogs.
So hubby is back to work tomorrow. I feel a "down in the dumps" day coming on tomorrow as I know I am going to miss him lots. We are already on a bit of a sulk as we have had such a lovely week. Not bad for saying we have worked for most of it.
Right, off to see if those roast spuds are done enough to turn the veg on for dinner.
I will catch you again tomorrow and in the meantime if you decide to have a snippet attack then please share below so others can take some inspiration from you.
Love
Two stunning creations Jules I love them both equally. Have a nice evening I am just going to have a lovely soak in the bath (Heaven).xxx
