Woolly and Waste

Good Morning All
Todays card is one I  made last week and really cost next to nothing to make!!!!

Both sentiments are freebies - the circle is Jak Heath and the bits stuck around them are all cut offs from border shapes or doilies
Frame is the negative from a die cut
Buttons from ebay for a minimal amount for a big bag full
Centre flower picture is left over from  decoupage sheet
NOW the woolly fabric on the left is from a China Bazaar shop here (there are loads of them and you can buy anything and everything) This was with the knitting wool and John (next door) and I saw it and both agreed that it would look great on cards. 60cents (50p) for 2 balls!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just goes to show that you can craft on the cheap.  I found some lovely red twine the other night when we were walking to the bar for tapas, so I picked it up to use at some point on one of my cards!!!!!!!!!!!

Look what came in the post on Tuesday
This was my prize for a chalenge win at Ready Teddy Go at beginning of August, WOW how brill is this..............  I have already been using them on cards I have made this week.  The holographic tiny butterflies are gorgeous and seem to match any colour scheme too.

    Lovely card Wendy and good use of all the left over bits and bobs. Your Prize looks great and very useful too. We are OK with the heat as long as we have the aircon and the pool. How about you? How many days left before you go to see your darling little granddaughter Hollie?
