All about the Snippets
Di from Pixie's Snippet Playground asked me to provide the mid-challenge inspiration card this go-round, and here's what I came up with.
This scene card is all snippets, aside from the base. It started with a 4-inch by 5 ¼-inch blue snippet. I cut three snippets of green patterned paper using the curved Whimsy Stitched Edge die, then arranged them on top of each other to create the “hills,” trimming off the edges to fit. The clouds are white snippets cut with Whimsy Stitched Clouds die. The sheep are from a set by The Alley Way (which is sadly out of business) called With Wondering AWE. They were stamped with Memento Black ink, colored with pencils, and fussy-cut. The sentiment (from The Alley Way set More Than Words) was stamped in the same black ink. Once the scene was all assembled, it was placed on a top-fold A-2 card.
This card is being entered in these challenges:
