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....so this is number three of four that I have done, they are not what I would typically do today, but I have added more on each card and this is the results....
This card was very basic , I thought it was CAS back then, but looking back I see it was just BORING!! LOL!! You have to be able to be objective with your own work, don't you...it helps us evolve!! I added the strip of recycled lace (no more lace edged doily's in our house) and that gorgeous gold flower that was part of a RAK from my SCS friend Pam (aka pam124) and topped with another gorgeous flower from Abby's Candy!!
Thank you taking the time to visit, I love reading your comments - Don't let this photo 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!

Do you want some more lace? ;-) - I am sure I can find a few scraps :-) BTW - try coming over the ditch (it's 300mm shorter now, after the big quake last week) and try our temps :-)
