Morning everyone, this week at Allsorts Lynn is going with the season and the theme of Autumn Leaves, this one plays right into my hands! Prizes this week come from AALL and Create.
Above I've created a tri fold card using AALL and Create Tag It Yourself (27), lightly inked the backgrounds and some base stamping using Foliage (496), then arranged Crunched Leafdrops (1109), Wiggle and Dance (1174) and Floral Flyer (1170). Lots and lots of snippets here so one for The Snippets Playground, there's speculation that Misses Di and Sarn have planned a conker hunt this weekend! We've three Horse Chestnut's in the gardens which are laden this year, the Squirrels are having a hay day.
Note: Those who collect A&C goodies will know that most of the larger stamp sets have or are being discontinued on the company website, but many remain available via on line retailers so a Google search is a good route to source any you may want.
This one again uses Crunched Leafdrops (1109), I really love this set, here I masked a focal panel and simply stamped into stencilled leaves, words, a little Mouse and a computer generated sentiment.
And belatedly (sorry Gail and Jo, you know what my weeks been like!) my September Card Chain Challenge make which went to Greta in Oregon. I used Lavinia Sticker Stencil Bottle Bundle which comes complete with the cork stamp, Large Hares, Moss Cap Mushrooms, Fairy Catkins and Mini Maple Leaf.
I must also send my thanks to CCC's random generator as it selected me as the winner, I won a £30 voucher to Relatively Thoughtful, it's a UK based company but new to me. It's also a new experience choosing a prize, I'm usually on the other side of the fence looking for companies to donate challenge prizes. So I have some new Andy Skinner stamps making their way to me.

Three fabulous cards with varied autumnal scenes and I'm sure you will be forgiven for being 'better late than never' with the hares in a jar one (my favourite but difficult to choose). Congratulations on being on the winning side of the fence for a change - reckon you will enjoy your prize when it arrives.

Three wonderful cards Brenda … the detail and vibrancy in the first trifold card are amazing, the second card is so tranquil and with a fab sentiment, and the third is a brilliant use of the bottle stencil to make a gorgeous scene. Congratulations on your win .. Hope you enjoy your prize xx

Great screen card. I have not done a screen card yet and really want to try one. Your screen card with the tags die cut turned out perfect and has very lovely imagery. Super imagery on the other two cards as well.
Love all three of your cards, beautiful stamps and designs, the autumnal colours really appeal to me, but would have to choose the stunning triptych card as my favourite, those leaves look amazing.
Congrats on your win too, must have been nice to choose a prize for a change.

Such beautiful work as always Brenda. The autumn colors look so wonderfully on both Allsorts cards, and what a beauty you sent to Greta! I am sure she was thrilled!
Although I love the butterflies and the leaves combined with the text and little mouse, it won't be a surprise that the Lavinia one is my favorite...
Great makes Brenda! Enjoy the weekend!
Congratulations on the win over at CCC!
Great cards, lovely colors!
Congrats on your CCC win - have fun deciding what to spend your voucher on!
Three absolutely gorgeous cards. Your 2 for Allsorts are fabulous for Lynn's current theme. The CCC one is a stunner too.
All the best,

Back again . . . to say thanks for coming to play in the Snippets Playground with the wonderful autumnal triptych card.
A conker hunt eh? Sounds like a good idea! I'll rally the gang!
Hugs, Sarn xxx
Beautiful creations Brenda. Hugs Anesha
I love that tag card with the 3 autumn tags! The squirrels look adorable in the bottle too, but that tiny mouse on card #2 is such a fun image! Congrats on your win and enjoy your new goodies when you choose them - Well Done!
3 beautiful cards Brenda. Andy's latest designs are all fabulous, great choice! x
Congratulations on your win Brenda you have created 3 stunning cards x
Gorgeous makes, each one with lots of details to see and enjoy, poor little hares trapped in the bottle.
Wonderful cards as ever B - I adore the triple labels - stunning work! And how lovely to win a prize for yourself - it's more exciting when you're usually the giver and I know just how that feels when it does happen. Enjoy. PS Look out for a St Trinians style charabanc landing at your place - bearing a load of stick waving conker hunters! I caught Dudley selling tickets earlier today - all profits to go to his treats store!! Sigh - wanna another dog by any chance?
Hugs

Oh wow--that tri-fold card is a stunner, Brenda! Love the second one, too, as leaves always appeal to me. And you know I'm enjoying the exchange card which I can see on display across from my chair. Thank you again!
What fabulous autumnal makes Brenda. Well done on your win, no-one deserves it more xx
