Hello!  I'm super happy to say that I'm keeping up with my promise to make Christmas cards :)  I have to admit that the support that I have been getting from my Youtube subscriber has been a HUGE encouragement to continue! You can see the process video of these cards in here: I can't believe it that I made all these cards out of 2 cards!!!  It was pretty cool.  And I'm finally going through my stash of papers and using all the little bits and pieces! I'm entering these cards in the following challenges: Crafting from the heart challenge blog  - Anything goes Christmas cards all year round  - Snowflake.  I added some red ones as well as a foam one :) Crafty hazelnuts christmas challenge2  - January extra challenge Crafty hazelnuts christmas challenge  - Use a sentiment I did on all but one Kreativeinkauf-challenge  - Snowflake That's it for me!  Hope this will inspire you to do more recycling and using up your little pieces!!!  I want my stash
