Sandra and her recycling ...

Hi Meredith.

Here is my entry for the 'green' challenge. I used the lid of the box of these chipboard letters. The box still has a lid though. I just peeled off the top layer. That is the frame around the photo - bit grungy.

cheers Sandra



Wow Sandra that is such an amazing use of recycled packaging!! Thank you so much!! Love the colours you have used in the layout too!!

Very inspiring!!

thanks Kylie.
Would you believe ALL the papers, the journalling spot, the rainbow and the little words in the top right corner were free???
I printed them myself.
I downloaded a kit from Shabby princess... it was free.
Then printed it on my computer using fast print (so I didn't use too much ink) and used thin matt photo paper for added thickness. So apart from ink and a some paper (which I bought on special and in bulk) pretty much free!
They have so many beautiful papers and elements there, that can also be used on traditional pages...
First time I have done this and it won't be the last time.
