Thanks for stopping by and for all your wonderful comments. I'm honored to have you here and I truly appreciate each of you more than you know!
Ever wonder what to do with all the thin offcuts you get when creating the mats for your cards? Do you even keep them? It might not surprise you to learn that I keep all mine. Originally it was with the hope of using them for sentiments, but now I've found an even better use for them; as the focal point and design on your cards...

A fantastic snippets card. Congratulations on being one of Di's picks this week with your lovely card. Barbxx
ReplyDeleteI always save my strips of cardstock and paper to make backgrounds, but this design is genius! I spotted this over at the snippets playground and thought what a brilliant idea! Your card is just beautiful and so original! Love it, and might have to CASE it :)
ReplyDeleteThat is gorgeous and you are not alone, lol, I used to keep them for sentiments but I tend to use those snippets when I die cut little flowers or individual words, love your card! I hope you don't mind that I will pin this onto my Inspiration board for snippets on my Pinterest board, congrats on being a pick too Karen
