Sunday Snippets - a Snoopy 'Hello'

I finally made a Sunday Snippets card, as well as part writing this week's new Snippets challenge. Huge thanks to Sarn for setting up the important basics of the challenge post for me - such a helpful little Prefect - in fact that should be spelt Perfect. Hot on the heels of my battered arm, my laptop is finally recovering from a spell in Laptop Hospital.
 
Anyhow, here's my Snippets card for today:


I used:

- a  5.5" x 4.25" white card blank, side opening

- my wonderful little helper Prefect had sent me an envelope the other week stuffed with some stamped Snoopy images and stitched die cut backgrounds in case I got stuck. All using snippets, what a lifesaver!

- I picked a Snoopy image and coloured the lettering using a blue Sakura Gelly Roll Gloss pen - in real life the blue is the same shade as the sentiment and a layer of the daisy - camera once again.

- glued the image onto a matt silver die cut square

- added  the image layer onto the card front using very narrow foam tape strips for a bit of 'lift'

- then used some of the spare snippets that Sarn had thoughtfully enclosed to die cut a double layered blue and silver daisy, pop a pearl in the centre then glued it onto the top left corner of the image panel. Used a die set by Joy! called 'Daisy die set'

used a Heffy Doodle 'hello' die to cut the word twice from a snippet of the blue card then added it to the bottom right hand corner of the card

It's so good to be able to make a card - Sarn hates me going on but she's truly one of the best!

No challenges for me this time.

Remember, I've just kicked off a new challenge over in the Snippets Playground HERE.

Dudley Pupdate: We had a couple of young lady visitors one day during the week - and of course Dudley absolutely charmed them at first sight. 

Ha! And that was his chance for a full on display with Honka Duck  .......................... as if he was auditioning for the lead role in a steamy s*x movie! Oh, the shame of it!  - he was removed, along with his acting partner, forthwith by Len and they both spent the rest of the visit behind a portable barrier across an archway into our lounge - both peering soulfully through the bars at us  - as quiet as little meeces! It's SO hard not to giggle when Dudley is being a little scamp!

Our trips out with him continue regularly and he's SO well behaved now that perhaps a bit of 'auditioning' is allowed now and then! 

Love as always, Dudley and yours truly,
