Peace on Earth Day!

The current post from Jingle Belles is to celebrate Earth Day!  Using recycled materials.  I typically do re-use images from previously received cards.  I actually have a giant ziploc bag full of cards that I constantly go through looking for images!  These two are no exception!




This one was made for a sketch challenge at Unity Stamp Co.  The strips are cut from two cards, a used Christmas tag and a scrap piece of paper.  The "tag" was cut from a box of Kind Bars the kids finished and the ribbon was saved from a package we received!


This was made entirely from a recycled card.  The green background is the back of a photo card, the wreath image was cut from the inside of another card and the sentiment was stamped on a patterned piece of the same card.

Vintage Christmas

When someone says "vintage" what do you imagine?  I think of OLD old...like maybe 100 years ago.  Certainly wouldn't consider myself (52 years) to be vintage, although some may disagree with that! LOL

This week's prompt at Jingle Belles is for a vintage Christmas feel!  I've gone through some of my previously received cards and this is the result!




Background papers and stamped sentiment all come from Unity Stamp Co.
