Upcycling

A quick and easy Christmas card, using a little upcycling.

I die cut the front of the shop bought card card we received last year, using a die from the Lisa Horton 'Scalloped Layered Squares' set.  The mat is gold mirror card, die cut using a die from the same set.   I add three gold sequin and my card was finished.

I am joining in the following challenges:
Rudolph Days May Challenge
C.R.A.F.T. Challenge #639 ~ Recycled
The Holly and Ivy Challenge # 116 ~ Anything Christmas Goes

    Hi Liz,
    Happy Rudolf Days.
    What wonderful re-cycling that topper was too nice to throw away.
    Love the die used and it looks very luxurious with the gold mirri.
    Thank you for joining the Rudolf Challenge.

    This looks great Liz and when you have a pretty set of scalloped dies to cut it with that's all it needs and some shiny gold mirri and some sequins to finish...perfect! x

    You've created a beautiful Christmas card. I love the elegant design, and the combination of red and gold is so festive. I can see why you decided to recycle the card you received - the motif is a real eye-catcher in its simplicity. Thanks for joining the Alphabet challenge.

    Hugs, Veronika
