Dottie's World Sunday Challenge - Go Green

Pop over to Dottie's World today for another fab challenge, this week from Karen, where it's time to GO GREEN. The challenge is to use something recycled on your card plus 3 buttons or brads and some ribbon. I chose to go for Christmas again and all the downloads are from the Christmas Collection, available at Charmed.

The recycled bit on this one is the green dotty paper which came out of my bin.

The reycyled part of this card is the ribbon with the star charms - that came off a candle box.
I shaped the top three layers of this card.

Thanks for looking, xx

Give me a minute while I pick my jaw up off the floor!......Juliet these are amazing! I LOVE the idea of the opening Christmas tree and then the surprise inside.You're the second of the design team that I've visited this mmorning and already I have two things on my 'do more of' list. So far I have, do more decoupage and do more decorating the inside of my cards.Thanks for the inspiration Juliet.xxx

Hi Juliet

Sorry i didnt bump into you at Harrogate. we went on one of the breakfast workshops. (of course it was Art from the Heart with Dyan, I love her workshops) this meant that i had to leave my house at 5.45 to pick my friend up as it is a 2 hour drive.

I love your cards they are both so different, You have given me some great ideas, I really want to start decorating the inside of my cards and what a great way to do it.

Love Tracey x x x
