My Aunt was a farmer for years. She has recycled since way before a lot of people knew what the word meant. I recycled this ornament from a Starbucks package a couple years ago. NO! I did not hoard it!!! OK, maybe I did. Anyway... this is one of only a handful of cards I was able to make in the last month!
Look Peggy! I'm trying to use up some stuff!!!

Yummy! Brat, this is just gorgeous with that bg paper. I think this card certainly justifies being a recycled hoarder! Yep! Love you Sistah!

Love how you kept all your cards unencumbered with embellisments, Terri. I see you used that same paper. Fabulous bow which incidentially just pulls everything together so beautifully.

I love that recycled ornament. Oh, is hoarding bad? Oh no - I didn't realize that wasn't a good thing...... I hoard, I mean save, a lot of things. I have had that buckle I used on my Teapot Tuesday card last night for at least 6 years.
The bow and texture on this are awesome - I love it! I am glad you posted all these cards - I have missed your cards a bunch!

Beautifully done Terri. LOVE that textured paper and you went "green" on recycling an ornament - way to go my friend. And, I'm sure you Aunt will have a true appreciation for it!! TFS!
