Time to turn Trash to Treasure in the Ways to Use It challenge! Please come join the fun I used a net produce bag and a yogurt foil lid for my trash.
Stamped trees on card base, again on scrap paper and fussy cut. Using torn paper towels as mask, sponged sky, lake and fields for bg. Tied hammock to trees with bakers twine and adhered to card base. Stamped fisherman twice, colored and fussy cut and angled to fit hammock. I love to use yogurt lids for foil, they have a great texture. I adhere them to cs to make it thick enough to work with. I cut out can shapes, added some red and gold alcohol ink for color, then squished a couple and adhered to the card base to complete. Thanks for looking, hope you'll join the challenge and show us your Trash to Treasure creations!

I love this card and the sentiment! You did an amazing job! I also love how you use yogurt lids!! My family and I eat so many yogurts and I never thought to use the lid. What a great challenge! Thanks for hosting.

What a great way to use netting from produce. Using it for the hammock was genius. This card is so cute and I love recycling. Thanks, for a great challenge. I may not get to play today, but will do if I can get other things out of the way. (or put them off)
