Pixies Snippets Playground

It's Sunday again, so time to go and play in Pixies Snippets Playground. While I was Ally Pally in September I bought the die that I've used for this card. It's a Crafters Companion Create A Card Die and I must say it's perfect for using up those scraps of mirri card that we all seem to get left with. I cut the die first with some Silver mirri card and matted onto the backing paper and a 6x6 card base. Then I rummaged through the scraps and found the small pieces of mirri and just placed them over the baubles that I wanted to cut out, then stuck over the top of the silver. The sentiment is one that I've had for a few years and I think it is a Britannia die.



I would also like to enter this into Crafty Hazelnuts Christmas Challenge which is use a sentiment.

Thanks for taking the time to look and your kind comments which are always appreciated.

Sue

I can see why you had to have that die and the way you've used it is just great for reducing the pile of snippets.
