Snippet Session




   It was time to empty out some of my snippet (scrap) box as the
top would not close.  I made a dozen quick cards to add to my
cards for cancer patients.  Everything except the card bases came
from my box.  Some of the card bases had been sitting around
in a scrap pile for years also. Once I stamped the Stamp In Up's
Natures Prints flower and sentiment on the bottom left card (it was
already oval blended) I found every die cut in the box that it would fit
on! Flowers and butterflies were cut from scraps.

A few fun challenges:

Congratulations on using your scraps! These cards all turned out so pretty! I can only WISH my snippets box was the size of yours :)

What a lovely collection of snippets cards you've made here Donna. Brilliant background and maybe a tiny dent in your snippets box. Hope that lid closes now! LOL!

Thanks for coming to play in the Snippets Playground! Please come and help me test out a few cocktail recipes up in the Treehouse later! xxx

Brilliant way to use up your die cut scraps Donna - you've inspired me to use some of mine up! Thanks for joining us at the Alphabet Challenge. Deborah DT

Wonderful designs that work with any scraps, something I need to spend some time doing too! Thanks for sharing with us at the Alphabet Challenge.

Now that is a snippet-busting session for sure! Awesome cards, Donna, and they will certainly brighten the day of the recipients!

What a beautiful arrangement of cards, and I love the fact that they've been created by using snippets only. I like how different every creation looks even when using a similar outline, and it's such a great way to build a collection of cards that can be used for different occasions, especially when you need a card and don't have time to create one. Thanks for joining the Alphabet challenge.

Hugs, Veronika

Saw these in person and they are lovely - the cancer special requests will love them. So glad you do this for chemo angels, just bringing a smile to these people helps.

I wish I had your mojo now, this is a clever way to turn scraps into someone’s treasure. Quick and easy, yet classy and beautiful.

Yay! You go girl!!! I think if I lived past my lifetime that I would STILL have enough for another lifetime after that of papers/snippets...or perhaps even un-used packages!! LOL I love how you've made multiples with the same layout so there's not thinking for each one. They're very pretty! Now I need to follow suit! ;)
