Pixie's Snippets Playground - Week 194

And yet another week flew past, we're almost into Autumn here in the UK, but with some lovely sunny days thrown in still. But, I just bet the shops will be full of Christmas stuff before long - if they aren't already!

Last Saturday one of my bestest friends from schooldays had a Birthday. I'd been saving the NBUS stamps and dies I used for her card for a few weeks, ready to make a snippets card this week:
I used:

- 6" x 6" square white card blank

- a piece of SU's 'Crisp Cantaloupe' card stock as a 'frame'

- a piece of white card stock on which to build the front of the card

- snippets of white card stock for stamping on

- then I set to using the fabulous Tim Holtz 'Bird Crazy' stamp set as well as the Tim Holtz 'Crazy Things' stamp set. First I stamped the images I wanted onto the white snippets and then coloured them using Faber-Castell Polychromos pencils and Sansodor blending solution

- next I die cut the Crazy Bird using the matching thinlets die set, and fussy cut the 'Crazy Things' hat and balloon. Apparently there will be matching dies coming out for the Crazy Things stamps (late September I believe) but fussy cutting was no hardship

- next die cut the word 'Smile' three times from a little snippet of SU's 'Tempting Turquoise' card stock using a die from Penny Black's 'Hooray' set and layered them up using Glossy Accents

- to assemble the card front I first stamped the sentiment using Memento 'Tuxedo Black' ink and a stamp from LOTV's 'Set 61- Quotable' stamps, which seemed to fit the bill (snigger) perfectly

- next trimmed out the centre and added the hat to the little bird then popped it onto the card front using thin sticky pads. Did the same with the eyes and beak

- then worked out where to add the balloon and used a snippet of bakers twine to tuck it round the end of the balloon and also underneath where I then placed the bird's extra wing layer

- added the word 'Smile' and a few sparkly sequins

- finally, when the card was ready to be put safely to one side, I added 'Glossy Accents' to the beak, eyes and some touches on the balloon

This was such a fun card to make - gotta love those Crazy Birds :) Hope you had a great day Moira!

I'd like to make this my second entry into Darnell's current NBUS challenge - all the Crazy Birds stamps, dies - and their accessories were unopened and unused before I made this card. Do join in the fun - there are loads of lovely prizes to be won and of course you get to use some of that NBUS stuff you haven't played with before!

Straight onto this week's picks, which of course were chosen by Sarn - who did a fabulous job of commenting and looking after the Playground this week. There were times I thought it was a bit like her having to herd cats. Thank so soooo much Sarn!

And here's what Sarn says about her time as Playground Prefect: Can I just say it's been great fun being Prefect this week and thanks to the playmates for being such good sports and playing tag nicely (apart from the donkey tail pinning incident of course!). If anyone else fancies being Prefect for a week, I know Di would love to hear from you.

And now for Sarn's picks and why she picked them, in her own words:

20: KandA HERE. Because I think it's a cute card, beautifully coloured and toned in and prettily embellished.
 
34: Julieanne HERE. Great masculine card with lots of snippet layers.
46: Jane's Journal HERE. It's just so amazing with all the work that's gone into it and NO stamping allowed! 
56: Lynn Hayes HERE. Love the multi-inked square butterfly flying outside of it, plus the matching die cut sentiment. The layout is so pleasing to the eye.
No 67: K T Krafts (Kathy). . .HERE. I just HAVE to add this card to my picks . . . because it is right up my street and uses my fave stamp set. (This was a really last minute addition from Sarn at 10am yesterday morning - which shows just how much we try to keep the picks absolutely up to date, until the very end stop when those gates clang shut each week).

Keeping up to date is also the reason why I pick the previous week's winner right away as soon as the gates close - I know (and totally understand why) a good few challenge work a week behind. But, it's fun to wrap one week up properly before moving onto the next one.
Sarn also said: Oh my goodness it is SOOO difficult picking out cards as they all have their merits

Thank you so much again Sarn, wonderful picks although I do so agree about choices being so difficult! It's been a huge help having you on board this past week, especially as there's been a lot going on here.

No new little Playmates this week, but we still had 68 entries - am gonna need to get more swings etc. before long!

Now the draw for that lovely stamp set, so kindly offered by Sarn - Woodware's 'Delicate Daisies' - and the winner is:
Well done Andrea, I have your address and will let Sarn know as the prize will be sent to you directly by her. Isn't it strange, the last prize you won here was the set of Sarntangles stamps, some time ago now - maybe Sarn is a good luck talisman/rabbit's foot?

One reason why this past week has been busy is that yesterday was my Birthday so Len took me out for a day at Longleat on Friday. We had a great day, the weather was so kind to us and with a heat patch on my back, rattling with pills and also a cushion for the 'off the road' ranger tour in a Land Rover around the Safari Park I coped pretty well. The tickets were bought a while ago and the date had been booked so we had to go through with it. We did laugh, after all the bouncing round in the Land Rover I felt my back for the heated stick on pad - and it had slid down into my knickers - wondered why my bum was so warm!

A HUGE thank you to everyone who sent me cards, Facebook messages etc. - I will thank you all individually but my time at the laptop is still being limited.

Anyhow, to celebrate my Birthday I planned a bigger prize than usual for this coming week as a thank you for all the fun and laughter - plus your fabulous snippets makes of course!

Yup, the prize is the Bird Crazy stamps and die set plus the accessories set that I used for my snippets card today. Not my own ones you understand - these are new and unopened of course!

Ideally, this should all be one prize, so that's what the offer is - all three items. BUT, I've been sitting on this prize for a few weeks now, fretting watching quietly as more and more of you succumbed to the 'Crazy Birds' and there was nothing I could do but hang on.

But, if you already have all of this prize, we have tons of lovely prizes coming up in coming weeks and I know hope that they're just the icing on the cake really.

Now, maybe you only have some of the prize and would like (say) the accessories and/or the dies 's cos perhaps you already just have the birdies or maybe you just have the dies only (err, who would do that?). It's absolutely fine to pick and choose - please just say clearly in a comment which you would like to win - remember you can have all three items as they are a bundle first and foremost, but I will split them if you want to add to your TH Bird Crazy stuff and you get picked as a winner. It might even be that someone would only want the bird stamps, to have a play with and that's fine too. First out gets their choice and then if necessary I'd just keep re-running the random number generator for second/third prizes.

The Snippets Challenge will run for one week and the Playground gates will close at 11am UK time on Saturday 19th September. The gates will open again at midnight UK time on the same day.

Maximum of three entries and please say in a comment if you wish to play and be a possible winner of the prize. Or, as explained above - just one or two parts of it! Do remember that you should also link back to the Playground in your blog post to be eligible for the draw.

Mr Linky is below - please let me know if you have any problems linking, it's easy for me to sort out so don't struggle on alone :)

Di and of course, Parsnip!

  12. Wowee Miss Di I just popped over to say hi and I saw Sarn had picked out my card (but just in case anyone was wondering the image is a topper) and when I scrolled past the other fabulous picks I had to pick myself off the floor cos' I see I've also won Sarn's super stamp. I'm a very happy little playmate today and will be back later with my snippets.
    I LOVE your super crazy bird card with his little hat and super sentiment. I'm gonna have to put them on my wish list but please leave me out of the draw as I just had a win.
    As for yesterday it sounds like you had a fabulous (if not totally pain-free) birthday and I'm sending you lots of Happy Belated Birthday Wishes xx

And BTW, I hope your birthday was a happy one in spite of your back troubles! So you got your bum warmed during that ride did you? Twas probably better than a good spanking anyway :)
    I'm giving you an enthusiastic yes please to this week's draw, as I have not yet ordered the fun birds to play with, and I absolutely adore them! Now take good care of yourself - I do hope you're feeling much better soon!!!

  18. I adore those crazy birds Di and what a fun and pretty card you have made with them. I love the sentiment and the way you have tucked the balloon string under the wing. Sarn has been great this week and lots of lovely picks with congratulations to KandA. A belated happy birthday too and sounds as though you had a good day and I giggled at your slipping heat pad heating up spots you'd rather not, and hope your back is soon treating you more kindly. x

Love this fun bird and the perfect sentiment! What a super prize package that I'd love to get in the draw for! Off to see who's visiting today.....

  23. Just popped over to check out things, and love this funny CB card. It's delightful with the birds and love these accessories. Great sentiment dies, and Mz Friend is going to be so tickled to open this one. And LOVE that verse too. Saw some fab highlights (which I have enjoyed on the owners' blogs too.) Sarn had a tuff job picking highlights and keeping order, but she did a fab job. Glad if you got a little rest time. Also pleased the birthday was fun, and that your back cooperated so you could enjoy the day. Good to have a warm bum while having fun too. Hope you are better with the back now. Big hugs & TFS.

  28. Happy belated birthday! I had a chuckle about your warm bum, it must have been tricky to discreetly retrieve the heat pad if you were still in the Land Rover..... or did you do a funny walk on the way to the Ladies? ;-)

    Well done to Sarn on her week as a prefect, she did a great job. It was fun playing tag and I only got caught once. Behind the bike sheds was a good place to hide. ;-)

    Great picks - I missed one or two in the week, so will be off for a closer look. Congratulations to Andrea on her win.

    I'm a Yes Please for the draw - such a generous prize, Di. I haven't got any of three prizes and would love to win them. xx

  29. Oops! Me again. I forgot to say what a great card you made, Di...... I was still chuckling about the knicker incident. :-) I love the crazy bird and great sentiment. Fab design. xx

  30. Belated happy Birthday lovely. Hope your heat pad is still helping. Great picks - so sad I didn't get round to see many peoples last week - it all went a bit mad after Wednesday! Love your bird card too x

    ReplyDelete
  31. I love your card and I'm sure it raised a smile. I have been very good lately, trying not to buy more stamps and dies, but these birdies would make some good cards for all my menfolk, so I´d love to be in with a chance to win them. (Winning doesn't count as buying does it?!)
    I am sorry you are so much trouble with your back, but I'm glad you managed to enjoy your birthday outing anyway.
    I have two more lots of visitors coming out in October, so I'm sorry can't offer to help you yet, but I will keep it in mind for later.
    Hugs Kate xx

  32. Have just posted a card so would like to say 'yes please' to an entry this week, and what a fabulous prize and thank you for being so generous Di. x

  33. Oh my gosh, that little bird is even more adorable in pink!!! I have been admiring the various Crazy Bird projects here and there on the blog and never get tired of seeing their hilarious expressions! That sentiment couldn't be more perfect. I am also glad you enjoyed your birthday outing, but what a shame that you are still struggling with your back problems. I say YES PLEASE to this week's amazing prize and send happiest of birthday wishes to you!

    ReplyDelete
  34. A cheery Happy Birthday from me to you, also, Di!!

    I feel your pain on the back thing. The crab claw is so descriptive and so true. Ugh!!!! I know when my back has been in spasms and I've had to go somewhere in the car, I was never sure if the bumps and jostles were going to help get me back in adjustment or put me in the hospital in traction!!! Arrgh. The safari land rover must have been 100X as bad.

    I am totally loving the sweet bird BD card you made for your friend. It took awhile for those birds to grow on me, but they kept popping up all over craft blog land and they really grew on me. Now I love the personality that each crafter puts into them. Yours is just fabulous. Since I don't have any of the birds or accessories, I would be delighted to have my name put in the hat for this wonderful prize set.

    Oh, I can't get off of here without commenting on the top picks. Such wonderful work by everyone. Oh, my goodness.....I was really captured by that creepy eye in Jane's project!! What an awesome no-stamping piece!!! lol....

    Happy Birthday, again. Get some rest. Gaining more experience with having birthdays is not for the faint of heart! :)

    A quick visit from me as I got the 'orrid sniffles and sound gross - think of a heavy breather down the phone line and you'd be about right lol! Hope to play again depending on how bad the snots get, hoping they go soon. Love your photo of that Meerkat - love them! Karen xx

  46. Happy belated birthday to you. I love your card and the balloon. His hat is adorable! Your friend will get a kick out of this card. I hate that about your back but that the stick on pad was in your knickers cracked me up. I'm glad you had a good time in spite of that. I would love to just have the accessories if the package is split up. I had to have those crazy bird stamps, then later I had to have the dies. Now I have to have the accessories! It is the best set ever and so cute. Take care of yourself!

    It's not easy keeping the little scallywags in order when you're flat on your back is it Di? Luckily the rain is keeping them contained INSIDE for a change and I'm still keeping a beady eye on 'em.

    Thanks again to all the playmates for playing nicely for me last week!

    I'm playing just for fun thank you.
