I was inspired by the 2RB Challenge this week to reuse, so instead of making new cards yesterday I decided to go through some of the ones I had made when I first started stamping and 'bring them into this century!' You know what it is like when your supplies are limited and you haven't found your 'style' yet.
This is the last of the four cards I have recycled, they are not what I would typically do today, but I have added more on each card and this is the result....
If I wasn't so tired (we are talking 12:30am here) I would have taken the whole thing apart and redone it totally, but I added the gold buttons, which are recycled and also those great photo corners which are part of a RAK from another Twisted Sister, Pat Smethers...and those gorgeous Dew Drops are from yet another Twisted Sister Peggy (aka Marilyn Prestonn) As you can see these girls have really looked after me, they have kept my supplies topped up, along with the rest of the Twisted Sisters - all of my cards come packed with LOVE from all around the world, thank you my many stamping friends - you are all the best!!
Thank you taking the time to visit, I love reading your comments. Don't let these photos fool you...it looks like a lovely day out there...but it is freezing...around minus three thousand five hundred and twenty nine degrees Celcius - well-l-l-l, okay a slight exaggeration! LOL! God bless you!

Okay, Linda...... the scientist in me has to tell you that absolute zero exists on the Kelvin Scale - and it's equivalent on the Celsius scale is at -273 C. Therefore I think you may be exaggerting JUST A TOUCH!!!!!!!!
Now that I've got science out of the way I can tell you that the card looks lovely! Love those buttons!! Lovely big U - and the dewdrops are so perfect!
