Reduce, reuse, recycle.

Reduce, reuse, recycle.

I realised a while ago that some of the packaging I was about to recycle would be perfect to use for card making. I decided that the matching bag with ribbon and tissue paper had great potential for a male card so I’ve put this together mainly using the packaging.
I’d like to enter it for CES challenge which is recycle and also for Birthday Sundaes button challenge.

Forever Friends stamp coloured with Promarkers.
Ribbons, tissue paper and papers from packaging.
Buttons, stars, gems and stickers from stash.
