Recycling.. but NOT CHRISTMAS!! :o)

These are really cute, tiny wee cards, using the images cut from the back and insides of the card, mounted on glittery irridesecent pink paper/card.

Cut ellie out, inked around the edges and mounted on 3D pads onto a white card square with a rosebud, bow and a 'with love' sentiment cannibalised from another card. The pink panel is cut from the printed insert of the old card.

The pink 'ribbon' is trimmed from another card and scalloped using Fiskars threading water punch.. added a couple of recycled sentiments, some cord, rosebuds, pearl spray and a Sizzlits leaf spray. Can't make up my mind if this works on black. What do you think?

I think this works perfectly on black and has resulted in a very chic card. Love it.

Back again, Chris. I forgot the cuties - Oh how could I?!? They're all gorgeous and I think you are so clever seeing the possibilities in the cards you have recycled.
