Snippets playground celebration

Hello there and happy Saturday!

Todays card is for a special celebration over at Pixies snippets playground. where Di is celebrating 12 years of running the challenge of using all of your snippets.

I used snippets from my previous Penny Black card and coloured with Promarkers.

I first saw this stamp over at the super talented Janes blog - thecraftbucket. But I cheated and actually bought this stamp from that big company beginning with A where we get everything from! Now I wouldn't advise anyone to buy this stamp from there as it is clearly a 'nock off' stamp and is not very good quality - lesson learned!!

Congratulations to Di and Sarn who make the snippets playground a fun and friendly place to visit.

I would also like to enter the Passion for Promarkers challenge dots-and-or-stripes.

Thanks for visiting my blog today and please leave me a comment if you do!  

Merry Band

Hi there,

todays card is a Penny Black stamp called 'Merry Band' 2356K:

I have had this stamp for a while now but its the first time its been inked up! I used Promarkers to colour it  and I think the sentiment is from LOTV. The backing papers are Penny Black Beau Jardin.

The Crepe paper dies are from The Greetery (a new die that I treated myself to 😊) 

Challenges:

Penny Black Saturday Saturday challenge 'anything goes or Christmas'

Passion for Promarkers challenge new-beginnings (I chose my new dies )

Pixies snippets playground challenge- -anything-but-christmas  - I used lots of snippets for my card

Pink Christmas

Hello there!

I'm back today with a pink Christmas card which has no stamping or colouring:

Do you think I went over board on the glitter?!! 

I used the Stamperia 'Pink Christmas' pad which is filled with beautiful images and papers -BUT and there is a very big but - because the pad is double sided you have to choose which image you like the best and therefore not use the image on the other side  :-(   I found this a very hard decision and it felt like I was wasting the other side and not getting my money's worth. I don't know why it wasn't just printed like a normal pad and blank on one side.

I would like to enter October-rudolph-days-challenge where the theme is anything goes Christmas and Penny's paper challenges which is anything goes paper.

Thanks for stopping by today.
