365 Cards - Day 54 - Recycled Elements

Today's challenge on 365 Cards was to recycle something you would not normally use on a card.

I really wanted to something altered for this challenge but as I have had a really busy day at work today I simply didnt have the time to complete anything too labour intensive so here is my card for today.



I cant say I am that happy with it but there you go.

My recycled item is the printed paper pages taken from a damaged book that was destined for the bin.

Maybe it will grow on me!!

I love it - I was thinking of using book pages - it is a great idea, may have to make one with book pages for Father's day.

You sound like me!! Yesterday was such a hard day for me. I just hated my card!! I really like the flower that you made. I always love the look of book pages. Great job even when you were pooped!!

hugs, Karen Lee

I like it! I am curious as to how you made the flower...I am stumped, it is visually very interesting.

I love it Maz! It's really cool how you've scalloped all the edges. Very creative.

Hey, I love it! IT fits the theme. I thought we had to alter a package we were tossing. So I didn't have anything to cover that I wanted to keep and thought that would be adding to the waste. OOPS. I misunderstood.
Your card is really cool. I love the type inside the image. I may start doing this with junk mail!!!
