ABC Christmas - R is for.....




This fortnight at...



Photobucket

R is for.................


'Recycling, Ribbon or Rhinestones'


Pop over to ABC Christmas Challenge to see Carissa's Recycling tutorial
(Oh, how I LOVE Recycling in my card making!)

We have a great sponsor again... 


Who have an awesome selection of digital stamps, papers & more,


and our Winner will receive 3 digital stamps of their choice.



Of course I had to go with the Recycling 'R'

and turned this...


into this...



I've just got to think of something to put in it now!

I've used a gorgeous image from our sponsor called Santa's Helper - isn't she sweet!
She's coloured with Promarkers and layered onto papers from DCWV Rose-Tinted Christmas ...I bought 3 of these stacks a couple of years ago and have just started my last one for this card :(


I also managed to get a few challenges into this little box too.......

    Your project is gorgeous, Carol!!!

    Thanks so much for your funny story today, too! I had to laugh at your expense, though I'm sure I'd have been mortified in your shoes! LOL! Sounds like she had a good sense of humor, anyway!
