Hello friends, thanks so much for stopping by. I have a recycled card to share with you today. I have a friend who works in a Boutique and she saves me any novel boxes or anything she thinks I can use - she did well with this lots - there are about 2 dozen boxes and I have cut them all up ready to be reused and brought to life in different way!
The box already had the beautiful embossed image with so many beautiful details and the gorgeous gold scalloped edge - I popped it up onto a shimmered card stock using Scrapbook Adhesives BY 3L Crafty Foam Tape - this has been popped up onto a slightly larger pre-cut pink card base.
I have added a computer generated sentiment underneath the scalloped edge, along with some recycled layers from artificial flowers with Want2Scrap Pearls added to the centre of each flower. A butterfly from my stash has been coloured and popped up onto the card front using Scrapbook Adhesives BY 3L Small White 3D Foam Squares under the wings for some added dimension.
Extra details have been added to the wings using a White Gel Pen. I t really did not need anything more - the beautiful dimension on the card front added so much, as you can see in the photo above. Very easy but I am sure you will agree that the image is too pretty to discard,
