This is my card for Ways to Use it 251. I was so proud of myself thinking I had such a neat idea about recycling time and I really got in a rut. You know what they say about pride!
I think I used the most stamps on this card of any card I ever made. So here is my lady in all her stages of life, some with too much time, some with not enough.
The Gibson Girl and unmarked Gramma are stamped and cut out. The rest are stamped on the CS. Sentiment is computer generated. Red embroidery thread makes the regifting bow. Happy New Year and Thanks for Looking.

Carol~ I smiled to see this image. (I have her also) And doesn't she look like she could be saying almost anything? lol! I love how her fingers reach 'out of the box', and I love the symbolism of the wee child in red as she looks back. Very sweet. TFS
