Morning all, a quick post with a card for the new Snippets Playground challenge. A mixture of stamping and dies, in the background stamped Lavinia grasses, die cut flowers using Amazon dies, two little Lavinia Bees and the wavy die a really old border set which I think is Spellbinders. The bottom panel and flowers all from snippets left over from cutting base cards but no photo I'm afraid. Also linking to Inkspirational leftovers theme, Summertime at Shopping our Stash and In the Garden at Try it on Tuesday.
A floral tag with a side pocket for a smaller tag for Beautiful Blossoms inspirational photo and Make my Monday use a stencil. The tag serves as a gentle reminder theres still a few days left to join us at Tag-Along (and ATC's) challenge with tags, bookmarks and ATC's. The blooms on my tag are Stamperia ephemera, stencilling in the background using an A&C Rose stencil, some lace, fine cheesecloth and pearl string.
Finally, I had my crafty companion GGD Margo at the weekend, she was intrigued with the whole stamping process and also discovered glitter, I'll say no more than took a while to clean up! This is what she calls her Sparkly Moon and apparently not Racoons as she hasn't seen one of those so must be badgers, the mind of a four (pushing five) year old.

The die cut flowers and Lavinia stamps are lovely combination Brenda, gorgeous floral tag too.
I think you're going to be facing some stiff competition from Margo in years to come. Doesn't a little glitter go a long, long way ....

Beautiful card and tag, love all the flowers on both. Beautiful card from Margo, love the Badgers and sparkly moon-you will be finding glitter for days lol.

Beautiful card and tag Brenda, gorgeous colours on both.Margo has obviously inherited her card making skills from you
You have some competition with Margo-grin. I bet even though you had to clean glitter, it was a lot of fun. And your card/tag are wonderful. I love the white edge on the card. It adds some pretty feminine details. Have a super rest of your day! hugs-Erika
Your floral card is so pretty Brenda. Thank you for sharing it over ATC the Snippets Playground.
Great side pocket tag full of roses too.
Looks like Margo will follow in her Grandma’s footsteps. Xxx
You appeared in my RL quite a few hours after you posted, but it got there in the end. Like you said - no rhyme or reason xxx
Beautiful cards, the garden with your flowers and bees is darling, fabulous floral tag, like the papers and the pocket, and looks like Margo is going to be a wonderful card maker!
Three wonderful creations, Brenda. My favourite is the last one. Margo has definitely inherited your creative genes.

Both of your projects are so beautifully done and well done Margo, her creation is so sweet and cute! I'm sure she had fun with the glitter but can imagine it wasn't easy to get it all cleaned up.
I love the card, the vintage style tag is beautiful, and of course Margo’s creation is adorable 😍. Glitter though? I don’t even let my crafty friends use it 😂🤣😂 xxx
what a very beautiful card and beautiful tags Brenda and a very sweet card she has done............gr karin
Love the card and floral tag Brenda but the star of the show is Margo's sparkly moon and colourful Badgers. Lucy loves to use the stamp platform - telling me she knows what to do! Try glitter glue, it's less messy, although not as much fun, so I'm informed.
Nearly forgot to say - Thanks for sharing your card with us at Try it on Tuesday. Avril xx
A lovely combination of die cutting and stamping for the first card and you've also made a pretty rose tag. Looks as if you and Margo had fun with stamps and glitter
A beautiful first card, love the scalloped border. Your tags are just exquisite. As for Margo, love her art work and I'm with her. At a quick glance I thought they were badgers when I first saw them, and I've seen a racoon!
Sorry I have not been around, been a sh''#/ week. Love your latest creations they are all wonderful. You have a budding crafter there. Hugs Anesha
I think Margo is after your job Brenda, please let her know how amazing her picture is.
I love the card with the wavy die, its made me remember I have a set somewhere, thanks for that :)) Lovely tag also.
Hope your feeling well now. xx
A wonderful combination of die-cutting and stamping for the first card! And I love your rose tag. Margos glitter is amazing!
Hugs,
Conny
I just love your first card and great that Margot likes inkt, stamps and glitter! I just know you cleaned it all with a smile on your face... Hugs, Gerrina
Beautiful creations (including one from lil' one!). Thank you for joining us at INkspirational~
Beautiful card with those gorgeous stamped flowers among the grasses and a lovely flower tag Brenda. Love Margo’s picture too.

Both are so beautiful and how fun for your young crafter, love seeing the young ones do art!

LOL L love Margo's picture she's got some talent there, your tag and card is gorgeous love the floral stamp image and the colour used and floral tag too x
What a lovely garden you created with that pretty curvy die cut edge, the softly colored blooms and buzzing bees! Thanks for sharing with us at Inkspirational: Left Overs! (cute card by your GGD too!) Julia xx
Your garden scene is delightful—the Lavinia grasses and tiny bees work beautifully with the soft die‑cut blooms. The rose tag is equally lovely with its lace, cheesecloth, and layered ephemera. And Margo’s “sparkly moon” absolutely steals the show; her imagination is wonderful.
Bees & Blooms..summertime fun…YES!! Way to go “shopping your stash” for our SUMMERTIME theme!! Thanks for joining the fun and playing along with our challenge over at Shopping Our Stash.

Your GGD's work is just precious! Can imagine the glitter clean up! Your card is beautiful! I really love how you used the wavy die and your stamping in the background! Love tag, too!
Pretty creations. Margo's is brilliant and im with her they must be badgers as ive also not seen a racoon wondering in the Cornish Countryside...although there is an escaped kangaroo on the loose
