Hi! back again to tell you that it's time for another challenge over at Crafty Cardmakers.
Judy is hosting today and our challenge is "Use a Recycled Element".
As usual you can enter anything you fancy, it doesn't have to be cards as long as it meets the challenge.
As usual you can enter anything you fancy, it doesn't have to be cards as long as it meets the challenge.
Hope you will join in.
And here is my project for the challenge:
Made with everything I love, more left-over Masterboard and:
as I am a bit of a hoarder when it comes to cardboard I thought this would be a good chance to use some of it.
This is just a piece off a packaging.
The first thing I wanted to do here was to use some new dies and I've cut out several pieces in varying sizes.
The earlier project which this Masterboard was made for can be found here.
I've cut out all the pieces here using a Tonic die and edged the pieces with the Distress Inks.
To add more interested to the recycled card I've ripped away some of the layering to reveal the corrugation and then rubbed and edged it with the distress ink.
I love these dies by Tonic.
I've layered the other heart pieces together and if you look closely you can see that I've removed some of the paper from the package piece here too and then added the distress ink.
I hope you will pop over to see what the rest of the DT have been up to and maybe join in the challenge.
I look forward to seeing what you come up with too.
Happy crafting.

Bit late for my WOYWW returns but yes, I love this card and a great idea as I am also a cardboard hoarder (usually add it to the compost on the allotment).
Thanks for visiting my desk already

This is so beautiful, I love the colour combo. I recently had to recycle a lot of packaging because I save it more than I use it lol!
Thanks for joining in with my I Love theme for Allsorts belated birthday.
What a beautiful card Angela. The colours look fabulous, along with the layering and the fabulous design x. Great re-cycling too x.

What a great creation! Thank you so much for celebrating with us at Allsorts this week.
What a stunning piece, Angela, and I love that you've managed to use so many recycled bits. You are the master! xo
Gorgeous design, Angela!
I use quite a lot of recycled cardboard, directly or as a backing to make something more sturdy (thanks Amazon!) Have a great weekend x
Great project to remind us to recycle packaging and that it can still look delicate and pretty xx
