Challenge Title: WASTE NOT, WANT NOT!
Hostess: jkanack Jean Kanack
Keyword: FF22jkanack
Date: Friday, December 9, 2022

I'm a baby boomer, my parents lived through the Depression and WWII and my Mom, in particular, saved EVERYTHING! Apple doesn't fall far from the tree. My challenge for you today is simple: take an old Christmas card, any old card (one you made a million years ago, one you received a trillion years ago or a store bought card you received a kazillion years ago) and remake it. You may create a new cardbase but use new paper only if you're making a new embellishment. Better yet, use paper that is from something else, like gift wrap or a gift bag or something like that.. Add whatever new embellishments, sentiments, anything you like, any theme is good. If you don't have an old Christmas card (brava to you), then choose any type of card you have. Take 'before' and 'after' pictures and post both of them. Go nuts, make it work!!!!!

I had to do some digging to find a card that I had not already cut up for tags. Funny thing, I got this from my aunt and am sending it back to her. I wonder if she will recognize it. LOL

My original card was a simple one that never made it to the gallery, it hit the blog here.
(you'll have to scroll through that post)
https://stacysmemorytriggers.blogspo...maswinter.html

and the re-habbed version is here in the gallery.

Jean, you have saved my life.

Well, not really, but you allowed me to do what I want in sending a fitting Christmas card to my boss in lightning order!

Link to the "Before" image (a stellar card made by the talented meiden/Mary) can be found in the "after" picture here: FF22jkanak "Waste Not, Want Not!" by DancesWithHooves at Splitcoaststampers

Thank you so much for a PERFECT quick-and-dirty challenge!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Blessings,
~Chrissy

Why am I not surprised with your environmentally friendly use yo’ stuff challenge? Does it count that I. Got two boxes of old gifted to me cards, took all my creative time to read each rememberamce and couldn’t bear ‘repurposing’ any…

more pondering required…what did you say is the upload deadline!!!!!

A fun and easy challenge Jean. I cut down a card I received from the Red Cross. I loved the picture of the birds.

Smile FF22jkanack Snowman card revisited

I so enjoyed this challenge, right up my alley! For my additions, there's 4 sewn borders, turquoise gems on the whipped cream, baker's twine vertical border embellishment, and a white background. Here's FF22jkanack Snowman card revisited and here is the original- Snowmen share coffee
