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
I never need an excuse to recycle things from my stash! Here's my Recycled Dove for this challenge.

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
