Pixie's Snippet Playground challenge week 140....

This week I have been scratching around in my embossing snippets box which is buldging... and this is the card I've come up with for this week Pixie's Snippet challenge.

I've used Sue Wilsons Heart lattice, Spellbinders Em-Bossabilities Dainty Dots and the middle panel I cant tell you what it is as I no longer have the embossing folder...

The little birds are cut from Poppystamps Nestled Bird die and of course spellbinders heart dies...the sentiment is from a Stampin Up set called 'After thoughts' but I have masked off part of the sentiment as it could be a Wedding, Engagement or Anniversary card.

We have a lovely sunny day down here in Somerset and I hear we are in for warmer weather....so hopefully summers not over yet...

Great combination of your embossed snippets - lovely for an engagement, wedding or anniversary and a few less 'bits' in the box.

What a beautiful card! I love the little birds in the centre. The middle embossing folder is a Sizzix one, but I think it must be discontinued as I've been trying to find it for a friend for a long time. x

Brilliant card Anne, a beautiful make from your snippets.
I have been using up some badly "stamped" images I would normally have thrown away.
Amazing what you can do when you out your mind to it.
