Sorry I am late uploading but it's been a busy week. The actual card is wending it's way to Wisconsin as we speak. Carol was one of the first ladies I met here on Splitcoast. We have exchanged cards and 'stuff' over the years and it is always nice to find one of her beautiful cards in my mailbox. 99% of this card is recycled items. The background is wall paper with little pieces of real wood blended in for texture. The leaves come from the lining of a gift box and the envelope is a recycled page from a calendar. I know the rules said no glitter but Carol wouldn't know it was from me if it didn't have a little 'bling' somewhere! LOL

Wonderful wallpaper, and it looks fantastic with those gold stickers curling their way down it. No rules - I used Stickles too. I don't think that's heavy-duty bling ;-). What great lining for the leaves, too - they look super.
Absolutely gorgeousness!! And what a cleaver Idea for the envelope. I’m going to have to case the idea of using my hawaiian calendars which has some amazing gorgeousness to keep from discarding.

I love the way you used those dazzles and they are not easy to work with either! Your leaves are so pretty and the bg is gorgeous!!
