Hi Everyone, it is Shirley aka wannabcre8tive here with a our first Free 4 All challenge of 2019. This week we are going to recycle some of those Christmas cards we received or cards we had left over.
The first card I made for this challenge was here yesterday and today it has disappeared. Isn't it strange how that happens? I have looked and looked and it has not shown up yet. I am beginning to believe my sweet boxer may have ate it. Luckily I have two more cards to post today.

This is a really great challenge. I decided to make a TAG! It was fun and I think I will probably do this with all the store bought cards I received this year. Not sure yet what I will do with the handmade cards.
I am glad you are challanging SCS'er to do this. I have recyled Christmas cards ever since I can remember. My favorite is to make ball ornaments using 20 circles - well 199 pictures and one with date.
Oh, didn't you know all created things (our cards are created) have legs and walk!
This was a fun challenge. I had several Christmas cards that had great images or greetings to recycle/reuse. Here is my first card which I pulled the ornament off another card. Just used new patterned paper background and some ribbon. F4A463 Christmas Recycled by JSisk at Splitcoaststampers
Here is another recycled Christmas card for this challenge. I just loved this image of the little child helping dad with the newly cut Christmas tree. I trimmed it off the old card and mounted it onto a card that I covered with Christmas paper from my stash plus a green ribbon. F4A463 Christmas Do-over by JSisk at Splitcoaststampers
Here is my third Christmas card remake. I cut the "Merry christmas" greeting off the old card. I used CTMH patterned paper for the background and added layered gold ribbons to look like a present. F4A463 Merry Christmas Remake by JSisk at Splitcoaststampers
My two cards above have the same name, but they are different cards. I forgot to rename the second one. When I tried to edit it would only let me edit the post but not the title. ;)
