I hope you enjoy your visit to my blog, mainly card making but I now have six Grand children, five girls and a boy. As I love these kids so much I can't help showing an odd picture of them now and again. I really need to get into Scrapbooking too, loads of pics to use. I do some knitting and crocheting too. I also have a page on Facebook - Wendy's Crafty Crafts where I have a fun challenge most weeks.

Quickie
A very quick and simple Christmas card just to show you what can be made recycling last years Christmas cards. Some of my neighbours and Linda (from Animal Aid) give me their old Christmas cards and usually I will use the backs (plain white card) for embossing in Cuttlebug but there are afew images and/or sentiments that I think will look nice made into another card and this was one of them.
Very simply just matted and layered onto black and green mirri card and afew stars added.
I make so many Christmas cards for the charities here, this is a good way of making them cheaply.
