Recycled Cards Again

By ScrappyPam on Nov 1, 2008 | In Stamping | 9 feedbacks »

I came across some more commercially printed cards while cleaning/organizing my studio. These came with the husband and he never used them so I decided I would. I cut the image from the card (I kept the inside sentiments for other cards) and put it against some holiday background paper. It's supposed to be green, but I'm not sure I took a very good photo. I try to take my photos in the morning when there is plenty of indirect light; the afternoons have too much direct light coming in the windows.

Anyway, I added a little ink around the edges of the image, some Stickles to the berries, and a holiday sentiment. Voila! A recycled (but handmade) card.

I know it's supposed to be one of those big fur hats, but doesn't it look like the child has a huge strawberry on their head? Just sayin'.

Well, I didn't think strawberry until you pointed it out, but since you did -- yes!
Definitely am image worth recycling though, it's soo sweet.
