Snippets House

I've managed to make a card for this weeks Less is More Challenge, it's recipe week and we are to use snippets.

I have glued lots of little snippets to a piece of copy paper and then used a Marianne die to cut out a house - I'm still making 'I've Moved' cards for my Mum!


I have also die cut a little border from another snippet using a Lawn Fawn border die and added a little twine bow.


I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Yay, another delightful way to use up snippets! Great design on this birdhouse and who wouldn't want to move there? A wonderful card for the LIM & I LOVE it! A friend recently sent me directions for making a 'quilt patern' on a card, using snippets, so I'm thrilled to see another way to use them well. Great choice of your snippets stripes too! TFS & Hugs
