Recycling For Rudolph Days

I'm glad to say that I seem to have got rid of all of my bugs and germs and I've been busy recycling. I went through all of the Christmas cards that we received this year the handcrafted cards have gone into a separate box while the rest have been deconstructed and remade into other cards. The featured card here just needed a bit of sparkly paper as matting and an insert to be popped in. Below is a small selection of the others that I have recycled. It has certainly given me a head start of my card making for Christmas 2020. I'm off now to enter the first Rudolph Days Challenge this year, Maureen has a choice of prizes for the lucky person who will be chosen at random to win.






Thank you for taking the time to look and your kind comments which are always appreciated.

Hi Sue,
Happy Rudolf Days.
Sorry I am late commenting.
What a fabulous use of re-cycled images.
They all look brilliant and so lovely.
I too have been doing the same so snap great minds and all that jazz.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.

You have made a great start to your Christmas card stash with recycling so many of last years cards.. Ilike you hand made cards are kept and the shop card ones are now sitting in a pile awaiting inspiration. Hugs Mrs A.

The featured card is really beautiful! I always intend to upcycle some or case them, but so far I haven't done it. Good for you doing it without putting them aside for later!

Great recycling Sue, lovely cards, I had not thought of using my cards even though I do keep them all, time I had a sort out!
