A Card for Di from Pixies Snippet Playground

-

This card is made specially for Di who has runs the Pixie Snippets Playground 
as between 27 January 2019 and 10 February 2019 there special event! 
Di's friend Darnell from across the pond has initiated a surprise Blog Hop to thank Di for the SEVEN years she has managed the Snippets Playground where we go to show off our snippets makes, enjoy bonfires, have hot toddies, jump rope, play on the Playground equipment, trade beads, horse-around in the tree house, ride bikes, play with Parsnip (and now Dudley), and generally have an amazing and fun time!

So Di, Thank you for all you do and the inspiration you give us you really are appreciated.

This card uses snippets of paper I had left over after making a diary.
I simply cut the paper to 1cm strips and mounted onto a scrap piece of white card.
I then run it though my Todo in a embossing folder to make sure its all stuck down properly.
Then I used my spellbinder little machine to cut the heart shape out.
Finally I stamped the sentiment on a another piece of scrap and stuck it all together.

This card is for the following challenges


Thanks for taking the time to look at my creations

This is a beautiful card! I love the strips of pink pattern papers and I love you embossed on top of it. Gives such great texture. That heart die cut is awesome and I love how you stamped your sentiment on it. Such an elegant card to honor Di! Hugs, Brenda

You've created a pretty CAS design, Nicky! It's a great idea to make strips from leftover snippet pp and apply them this way! That cut-out heart to encase the sentiment is genius! Thank you so much for joining in the Hop to thank our Miss Di! Hugs, Darnell

Oh that's lovely! And although you've used paper snippets, you've given me an idea for using some washi tape that's feeling very unloved right now.

Anyone who know me knows I am a very organised crafter My promarkers have been driving me mad as they were in a number of different containers and I never seem to pick up the right container, so I decided I needed to sort it This is a CD storage box from Tescos it comes with 100 sleeves to put CD in You can find it HERE  but there are many others out there Being sad I had some Pro markers in my handbag so was able to try them in the shop for size! Each sleeve holds seven promakers and each section comfortable hold 10 sleeves or eleven with a little bit of a squeeze As I said I like things very organised or as my DH says OCD! I used some adhesive labels in my Craft Robo and cut out the little circles this way they were still attached to the backing sheet I could colour them and then peel them off with my poky tool and stick to the ends of the pens I also have put a coloured circle on the bar of ...

Promarker Storage Update

As some of you know I tend to be a little bit of an OCD crafter - I like everything to have a place and when I have finished using it that is where it goes. Now when I first started collecting Promarkers I used a travel CD case to transport them and it has worked really well you can see the original  HERE . I then also started to collect some flexi markers and the promarkers brought out some limited edition promarkers so I decided I needed them!        This meant my storage box was no longer large enough so I started to look at ways to improve it I brought a slightly larger box from E-Bay then set to improving the insides I realised if I made some boxes for the pens I could store more in a row, than using the CD sleeves. So using an A4 piece of paper I scored out a box with two dividers so the pens do not fall over (I did warn you I was OCD)  This is the A4 piece of card with the score lines dotted and the solid lines are...
