Over at Pixie's Snippets Playground,
Di 👸 recently celebrated her SEVENTH anniversary as Headmistress of
Pixie's, having taken over at the beginning of 2012 from the lovely Jules!
Fancy having to put up with us lot for that long!! 🙈🙈😁😁
If you don't know about the Playground 😞 (and I can't believe you don't!!) and fancy joining in
this fortnightly challenge, all you need to do is bring your creation with at least
one element made with a snippet ~ that is a scrap/left-over/tiny tatty bit of paper left lying on the desk!
I have made many friend in blogland over the last hundred years (actually it's 13 but I thought that may be unlucky......) and Di is one of them.
Darnell has set up a Linky Party for all of Di's friends to get
together en mass to thank her for all she has done for us all these
years!
To play along, please post a card and thank Di on your blog, and
then go visit Darnell and link your card on this post.
So in honour of Di here's a snippet make for this week.
Textured card left over from the previous make made into two squares. Smaller one inked with Scattered Straw and Tumbled Glass DI.
A little bit of shadow stamping and some Gold Pearl used on the top of the bolder flowers, a few birdies and a sentiment stamp especially for Di.

I am away for my penultimate duty as part of the Bowls England Presidential Team this week, so will catch up with you all when I get back (providing the kitchen fitters have not demolished the house) - thanks for visiting me - Have a great week! x
What a beautiful card and it is so perfect for Di! I love that sentiment, perfect in every way and your scene you have created. So serene and calming for sure and after the antics at the Playground and keeping after Dudley, I'm sure Di could use some calm!!! Hugs, Brenda
