My "trash" that was recycled is the striped yellow bag. I tore it in tiny pieces than covered a piece of watercolor paper with a glue stick. I stuck the little bag pieces to this, then stamped my versamark pad on the panel. I covered it with UTEE and heat set it. I repeated this, let it cool, then bent it many times to crack the UTEE.
To get the glitter splatters, I mixed water and liquid glue, loaded my aquapainter with it, and tapped it over the leaves. Then I poured silver glitter on the leaves, shaking off the excess that did not stick to the glue splatters.

Nicole, this card is so creative... and artsy. It's like a smorgasbord of techniques. Who knew one could make a bag look so fabulous with some embossing powder and then cracking it and adding some glittery splatters! You've mastered recycling for sure!
Thank you for going From Trash to Treasure with me today!
