Happy Learn about Composting Day! You probably had no idea, right? Neither did I, but seems like such perfect inspiration for a challenge to Upcycle/Recycle something you use to make your project. I don't care if you use a ribbon, a book page, a box or a dried flower, there are tons of possibilities. Just create with something you have saved from the trash bin.
I made a gift card holder using a coffee sleeve from my favorite local coffee shop -
I was very fortunate to win a voucher to Miss Ink Stamps during the Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers Bloghop. The images here are from their Brewtiful stamp set.
If you are short on ideas, take a look at the fab makes from the Girlfriends, they always inspire me. This would be a perfect opportunity to make something other than a card, which we welcome. I can't wait to see what you create this week!
Congratulations on your win!! Your gift card holder is fantastic! The sleeve is such a fun way to present the card too! And it's all decorated so perfectly too!
ReplyDeleteI think these sort of card holders are fabulous Brenda, and great recylcing too.

Splendid card, Brenda! So cool that you used that coffee sleeve, it's got a fabulous image on it, it would have been a shame to just discard it! Loved this challenge, thanks for it!
ReplyDeletePerfect gift card for this challenge, Brenda. I also pick up Starbucks coffee sleeves (we only go there on vacation because I find it way too expensive and we none in town anyway) - maybe I'll need them sometime. As you can see you have found a good use.
