Keeping up with my desire not to be scrambling in November I've made another card for J
ingle Belles rock challenge blog. Since this is Monday I saw the new
Mojo Monday sketch this morning and deamed it perfect for what I had planned. The current challenge at Jingle Belles is Peace on Earth Day which is to use something recycled or upcycled, I will show you my card first then explain.
I love my
Impression Obsession trees and deer dies and really wanted to use my newest die set from
Elizabeth Crafts Designs the stitched ovals. Now on to my recycle item......

I had fun picking up some wallpaper and paint samples and this green sample just seemed to be perfect to cut trees. although it looks brown in the picture it is a forest green and very easy to cut so this is my recycle item I used.
Here is a close up and it does show the trees a better green colour
Finished inside
Challenges I would like to enter:
Well that's it for today check back tomorrow and have a fabulous day!!!

great combination, Barb, and you're absolutely right about that sample, it made perfect trees!
Great use of the sketch, and your sample makes for perfect upscaled trees!
Such a peaceful card :)
Love the dies and how you used the wallpaper samples for the trees :)

(great job on the upcycling, as well!!! sorry, i probably should've mentioned that sooner, lol!) thanks for joining our celebration of earth day once again at JINGLE BELLES! ♥ (i'm chuckling slightly b/c i seem to recall your saying you'd be sitting this fortnight out since you had NOTHING fab to use... hmmmmmmm... :) :) :) :) :)
