Thank You

I am sooooo behind on sending thank you cards for the most wonderful birthday my crafty friends created.  Today is the day to begin with the making.  This snippet was jumping out at me.  The pink trim was a piece shared by Virginia at one of our crops.  The flower is from another of her share pieces and it was cut using the Memory Box Lovely Aster and positioned over the Memory Box Whimsy Circle.  The print card stock didn't begin as a snippet, but if you cut it wrong more than one time...it is still too short for what you planned...I know, measure twice, cut once.  If I did that, there would be no snippets!  Well, fewer of them anyway.  I then layered the pieces onto a piece of cardstock that I'd embossed using the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots. 
And here's the inside.  I made a little tag to write my note.  A little bling and I'm done.  Well not quite, I'm heading over to Pixie's Crafty Workshop to see what the other playground gang has been up to.  If you have snippets, how about joining us on the playground.  It's easy, it's fun and there are lots and lots of crafty folk there. 

Off for a day of play with Brenda.....until next time....Happy Crafting and Hugs from No. California!

  2. Hi Mary

    So good to see you back in the Playground - and with such a fabulous card too. LOVE how the flower sort of pulls the patterned and embossed parts together.

    And, a lot of my snippets are the result of mistakes in measuring (even twice!) and cutting :( My snippets folder is almost bustin' its seams right now!

    Hugs, Di xx

  7. What a beautiful flower and the paper is gorgeous with it! How many times have I measured once and cut wrong? Not enough fingers and toes to count. But Di makes it fun to have snippets!

  11. Love the way you topped your MB circle with this flower! Wonderful design. Loved all the papers used and the layout on the front. Then I saw the inside, and what a great design that was as well. Liked the idea of adding the diecut pullout for your thank you tag. Wonderful work on this card. TFS
