Hello, everyone! Before I share my card, I would like to welcome my newest follower - Shery Russ - thank you for joining me! If you would like to leave a link to your blog in the comments, I will be happy to hop over and follow you too! I actually know another Shery Russ, so it's fun that there are two of you with the same name!
I love playing at the Snippets Playground! I've been hanging out there since 2014. Di has a bi-weekly linky, and she comments on every entry. She provides an inspiration card with details on how she made it, and offers up a generous prize, out-of-pocket. Di also has a new puppy - Dudley - and she shares a lot of cute photos and updates! Thank you, Di, for all you do to encourage us to use our snippets!
My card features lots of snippets! First, there's the die-cut alcohol ink background, which is a snippet from this card. I adhered it to a white panel and then a brown panel, both of which are snippets. The die-cut buck/wreath is cut from the same brown panel. I stamped a sentiment on a die-cut banner, also a snippet. Lastly I added a few brown sequins.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful card in celebration of Di. I love the alcohol inks. Speaking of alcohol I think Darnell was passing out Wodka and somehow it spilled over into my blog. I'm serving coffee if needed. [Bunny]
ReplyDeleteSo Lovely! I LOVE the Alcohol inked background... very cool masculine colors...
ReplyDeleteAnd I read the comment you left me and wanted to say I'm sorry to hear about your hubby having a few setbacks... I totally get it as my husband had several setbacks as well after his stroke. He still has issues to this day, so I understand what you're going through... I can't imagine the struggles you must be facing as well with your health issues too... Just know I'm thinking of you and praying for you both. I know it's not easy and you can always used the support... send me a message if you ever just want to talk... Big Hugs!
