The fortnights challenge theme is

R for Recycle.

So we want you to recycle something, paper, buttons,
ribbon, newspapers, emptied chocolate boxes etc.

Please tell us in your post what your recycled item is.

Here is my card, with a lot of recycled items.

The image is cute 'Crystal Flakes', you can find her at Funky Kids.

She is coloured with Distress Reinkers and
I have added a lot of Stickles onto her clothes.

I have used two different embossing folders from Cuttlebug,
and for once I have distressed the edges.

A pic of my recycled items.
I'm sure you can recognize many of them from my card.

In the beginning of this month we went to my nieces confirmation's party,
and I brought the placement cards
and the decoration from the napkins with me home.

A close up. Isn't she a darling?

The silver paper behind the sentiment is from the placement cards.

The flowers from the placements cards and some punched leaves.

The ribbon here and on the front are from the napkins.

My personal stamp.
