Upcycled pictures

I've been working on cards-taking 15 min here & there.  Wanted to post a few of them.
I've really been trying to recycle.


We get all kinds of junk in the mail. One I recently received was an 8x10 poster with small pictures lined up.  I cut them apart to use on my cards.

I also scored at a yard sale -found 17 calendars of Norman Rockwell illustrations.  I've matted this one on kraft cardstock, inked around the image with a white gel pen. Added some die cut leaves for the tree and the natural hemp cord at the bottom. 

I love how they both turned out.


Use Your Stuff- challenge 38-make it by hand. I made both bows.
Thanks for stopping by!
