Today is Earth Day so it seems an appropriate day to post this card for both Jingle Belles and Sweet Stampin' challenges to include a recycled element.
The little bottle came off a commercial card I received and the ribbon off a Christmas gift.
I stamped the sentiment on white cs and cut the sections out and layered everything on some festive dp.
I feel that the sentiment is such a major part of the card so I'm also linking it up at Word Power.
Next up is a card for The Flower Challenge "Add Layers". I've got a watercoloured focal image layer, a pink bordering layering, and a dp layer on the card base. It's also for Colorful Options "Pastels".
And last for today, Addicted to CAS wants a monochrome card.
I used a little scrap of cling wrap background made with a couple of different blue Brushos (sprinkled, spritzed with water, then cling wrap scrunched up on it, and left to dry). I framed it, added the two die cut doves, and added a blue heat embossed sentiment.

Way to recycle on the first card that made me laugh! A fun way to use that bottle. The slim line card is lovely with all the flowers and those doves are the sweetest. A beautiful blue background using the cling wrap.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun card the first one is with that sweet bottle hanging on the ribbon over the lovely dp, and the sentiment is great Susan, and love the really beautiful flower on the second, and the last in shades of blue with the white doves surrounded by the pretty white frame, and the blue stamped sentiment to finish...a perfect monochrome CAS card. x
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, that cool bottle is such a perfect thing for recycling, especially as you had the PERFECT stamp to go with it! Brilliant on every level! So happy you could join our creative celebration of Earth Day at Jingle Belles!
ReplyDeleteYou rocked all three cards, but that sentiment with the bottle is magnificent ... so very glad you celebrated Earth Day with us at Jingle Belles.
