Hi all. I have a card featuring a recent set of freebies called Eucalyptus Wishes featuring some foliage dies and some stamps produced by Apple Blossom for Die-cutting Essentials (Issue 98) and being used for the first time. I cut the foliage dies using snippets of a light and dark green, kraft and gold mirri card. I used a set of stitched dies to cut two circles, one from a snippet of white pearlescent card, and a piece of patterned paper which was one of a set of coordinating design and available digitally to go with the dies and stamps, and I also found an already stamped sentiment on a snippet of white card which I used in the centre.
As one of the challenges I am entering is the Snippets Playground I have taken a photo of some snippets and I wasn't sure what colours I was going to use, so I took a photo of lots of different coloured ones so that I could decide which to use as I made the card.
I found a 6" square card and added the two circles and then stuck down the sentiment in the centre. I then arranged my foliage around the edge of the outer circle and stuck that in place.
Thank you for joining me here today and I'll see you again soon.
I am entering the following challenges:
Snipppets Playground Challenge - No. 446 Where we use our snippets of paper and card etc.
NBUS Challenge - No. 46 Where we use our Never Before Used Schtuff.
Simon Says Wednesday Challenge - Anything Goes.
Seize the Birthday Challenge - No 254 Anything Goes/Candles

great way to use the snippets of coloured card stock. Love your wreath xx
A great selection of leaves and plenty of snippets used up. Must get used to taking a pic of my snippets although I usually 'wing it' and make up my mind (and/or change it) as I go along
A beautiful card Pat. I also bought the magazine for these dies, although I've not yet used them!

What a wonderful wreath you've created from your snippets Pat.
Thanks for coming to play in the SNIPPETS PLAYGROUND. Once you’ve finished playing on the swings, meet me, Di and Dudley up in the Treehouse for a nice mug of hot chocolate! xxx
What a lovely card Pat, I love that beautiful wreath made with all of your colourful scraps, such a pretty design and colours, Kate x
What a fabulous card Pat! I have a multi-foliage pieces die set and am terrified to use it! How dumb is that then - more so after seeing your marvellous card. Perfect for loads of occasions with just slight tweaks to the colours!
