Snippets

Good Evening, my card to share today is for Jules' Crafy Snippits Challenge.  The bp and mirri card have been layered together and lying in a scrap box for months. The strip orangey strips are from a piece of Encaustic Art that I did last year sometime, I can only do abstract pieces and then don't know what to do with them when I have finished.  A few months back I bought some Marbling Inks from Create and Craft as soon as they arrived I had a play and then put them away.  The other strip on my card is from  my play session, and has been lying in a basket ever since.  I made the bow with a little bit of left over ribbon, the air was blue because it kept slipping off my bowmaker because it was so short.  After matting the strips I didn't have a piece of gold mirr big enough to mount the image, but I found a bit of matt gold instead and there was enough left over to die cut the number and mount the sentiment, which was computer generated.  The image is a digi from Cuddly Buddly, which has been sitting coloured in my box for a couple of months.

I followed Sketch 68 from this week's Sketch and Stash Challenge, there is nothing new on my card except the sentiment, which was  made especially for this card, but everything else has definitely been neglected lol.

I hope you like my card, thank you so much for visiting and for the lovely comments you leave

  1. Hi Beryl

    Another beautiful snippet make from you this week. Great colours, image and layout.

    You took me down memory lane talking about the Encaustic Art .. .. I can remember watching a demonstration on it and buying our eldest lad the kit to use.

    He made some lovely scenes with it and actually took everything home with him when he visited last so he could have another play at home.

    Well done on getting the better of your ribbon!!

    Thank you for sharing your lovely make and for keeping me company again this week.

    Love Jules xx
