Recycle Time

Hi There,

Are you ready for Easter? If you're needing some inspiration just check out the projects featured at Creative Critterz Imaginations for the last two weeks. Lots of great ideas!

Moving forward we are now creating something that we recycled for EARTH DAY.

I choose to go back through my paper scraps and make a card out of them. Even the card base was precut and folded. I must have had plans at one time to use it but it just never happened.

The cake is from the Yummy cartridge. I cut it out a while back for another project but it was too small so I just saved it.
Pattern Paper - Elise Cartrige I was probably trying out my Imagine when I first got it just printing some pieces of paper.

The flower and label are from a punch.


You can see my scrap pieces I had to work with. There were lots more but I sorted them into like colors/patterns that co-ordinated before I started the project.


It was fun to create with a limited amount of product. I still have lots of pre-printed paper so I think I'll try making a few more cards and reduce, re-use and recycle what I have.
