Re-cycled Greetings

I love to keep a stock of greeting cards for that just-in-case moment.  Having spent January writing out all my celebration cards for 2012, I still like to have some blanks to fall back on.

I love this cup-cake design. Using a cut out from a card received, I sewed sequence and beads to the card and topped it with a gold leaf in place of a candle.

Sparkly cup cake

Using cut outs from other cards I've also created these lovely designs....

ribbon from a Birthday card I received

I love the simplicity of this real flower card...a pansy
from my garden and pressed by me

Everyone loves Champagne! recycled cut out and
ribbon with jewelled "bubbles"!!
