Pixie's Snippets Playground Weeks 208/209 Celebration - Prize F

We're still rolling along with the celebrations in the Snippets Playground!

Here's my snippets card for today:
I used:

- 5" x 5" square white card blank

- a snippet of SU's 'Real Red' card stock - this is one colour that I bought up in quantity as it's such a Christmassy red - trimmed to slightly smaller than the card front and glued in place

- a snippet of white card stock, embossed using the Sheena Douglass 5" x 7"  'Christmas Greetings' embossing folder and trimmed slightly smaller than the red backing before being glued onto the card front

- next I dug out some little snippets of green card plus more SU 'Real Red' to die cut the stockings - using the Crafter's Companion 'Christmas Stocking' die set. I love that this little set even comes with the extra dies for the heels and toes!

- assembled the stockings and then just popped them onto the card front using thin sticky pads

These little stockings would look great suspended from a twine 'washing line' with little pegs - but, I was still taking it very easy and went for a card that would just quickly showcase the prize(s) on offer today - which are:
A Sheena Douglass 'Christmas Greetings' embossing folder - a generous 5" x 7" in size
and a Crafter's Companion Die'Sire 'Christmas Stocking' die set.

Please just add a comment underneath this post if you'd like to be in the draw for this particular prize - which is all one prize unless you'd only like to be in the draw for either the embossing folder or the die set - in which case just say so and I'll do a second draw for the other part of the prize if you win. But, as usual, both items do make up one single prize unless you say otherwise.

At the end of all of the celebrations I'll do a massive draw session for all the prizes using the one Mr Linky - which is on the main snippets post HERE - so you do need to have entered at least one snippets make over on that post to be in with a chance :) Maximum of three entries please.

And there's still more prizes to come so keep on checking!

  2. Oh my goodness, those red & green stockings look adorable against the sharp white background! I've never seen either the embossing folder or the dies, so I'll have to say "yes please" to both :) I love that Christmas continues long after Santa has returned to the north pole :) I hope you're feeling well today too!

  14. Super card and design Di.

    Sorry I've been missing from the playgrourd this time round, only got home yesterday, have a few manic days ahead then off to Anaheim so afraid I will be missing the next couple of weeks as well. Just hope I don't get black balled when I eventually show my face in the playground again.

    Happy New Year to you and yours and I do hope you are on the mend and see better health in 2016.
