Recycled Christmas cards week 2

-
Hey everyone!  Hope you are keeping warm.  Here it's FREEZING.  But that's perfect if you are crafting... unfortunately it's week days and I'm working lol

Anyway this weekend I did craft and I continued my series of recycled Christnas card and figured I should share them with you here as well.

You can see my youtube video of the making here:

And here are the 6 cards that I made in 37 minutes.  My goal was to make them in 30 but I wasn't able to accomplish that.

I used up 2 cards as well as some Christmas packaging that I had.  If I can keep this up I should be ready come Christmas time :)

I'm entering those in the following challenges:

  1. Cards in envy - Snow bird challenge - I have 3!
  2. Make my Monday - A winter's walk
  3. Use your stuff - Oh Canada - well right now in Montreal it's FREEZING so any of those would apply... other then the santa lol  and yes we do have other seasons just longing for them right now lol
  4. Crafty hazelnuts christmas challenge extra - Anything Christmas
  5. Crafty hazelnuts christmas challenge - Anything goes 
  6. 12 months of christmas linkup - out with the old - again used some new items like the snowflakes and well the packaging was new.... and using some old card base.
That's it!  Hope you have a great Monday night.

Hugs

    Vicky, what a great idea to recycle your Christmas cards. I've done that in the past but kind of lost sight of doing it lately. Beautiful cards and you'll be ready for Christmas 2017 in no time at all. Thanks so much for linking up to 12 Months of Christmas Linkup. Hope to see you again!
