Okay, this one's GOT to win some kind of prize. I xyroned a used (not with poop-- with ink from cleaning stamps on my MISTI) baby wipe to a scrap of old file folder. Anyone else make their frame mat from a used baby wipe??
I like spellbinders' little frame with its dangles. I cut it from a scrap of gold metallic cs. The sentiment was sponged and over-stamped to "earth" it up a bit, but it still photographed much too white. Maybe because I applied glossy accents, and the light reflected. Eh!
I really like using rescued and re-purposed resources with the cards. See the plastic pieces in front? They came from binder dividers, and I'm trying to figure out how to use them like sequins.
Also, I like this week's sketch layout. Obvious, isn't it? as this is the second card I've made for both.

Brenda, your card is marvelous and your description is priceless! I love your used baby wipe bg and I doubt anyone else has framed one before. I think your prize is your marvelous card ;) it's certainly Trash to Treasure!! I bet you could color the binder dots with alcohol markers. They'd be cool with a little pattern too. I so love a good recycle! Thanks for playing in my challenge.

I LOVE your baby wipe! I love pieces of paper towel etc that was used for clean up! This reminds me of some paper towel that I've been saving because it had great colors on it.
I love this card and as far as I'm concerned, you do win a prize for this!!

I think you have been cleaning up Unicorns with this wipe! I do have one background that I made by pressing my inky wipe onto CS and it made a great pattern with little imbedded patterns of things like balls and stuffed toys which were hidden embossed patterns on the wipe! I love your card and I too love the spellbinder frame with the little dangles!
