For this month, our lovely hostess Judy (JAM123) asked us to think of Earth Day & go green with our monthly swap cards or use recycled materials. I chose to case this card by Laurie S: (http://Card.html) and changed around a few elements to include my recycled items - can you see where they are? I used my Starbucks' coffee sleeves (which I'd normally toss with my cup!) to punch out some flowers AND stamp/color the tree trunk! I'm thrilled with how this came out & how Judy made us think outside the box to use something and make it into something else! Also, I love that the purchase of these stamps at Taylored Expressions has $7 going towards The Eden Project - check it out, it's pretty impressive The inside sentiment reads: "We are friends forever in Sunshine and shade." TFL!

This is absolutely great! I love how you recycled your Starbucks. What a great personal treatment that is especially since we all know how you like your SB. I think you need to package these up and sell them to SB! Great job girlfriend. Oh and Judy put this down for me too...no shame I know.

Absolutely perfect, Kelly Bella! I love that you recycled your Starbucks sleeves...terrific recycling and I would never have guessed if you hadn't told us the pieces used. Yes, Mary is right...such a personal touch for you 'cause we know how you like your SB!! I love the sentiment too!!!
