 Before : a 15 year old purple skirt that I found in my 'scrap fabric' box
(kept because you never know when it will come in handy!)

During : whoops, there seems to be a bit missing now!!!!
(As Rolph Harris would say, "can you guess what it is yet?")

After : A cute little baggie, decorated with glittery lace, contrasting lilac stitching, glittered snowflakes (using the negative of a die cut snowflake as a template) and a Christmas image sewn on (boy, that part was difficult).




Once you have made your  Christmas project with recycling, add a direct link below so that we can come and visit you. Don't forget, our challenges last for two weeks....the linky will close on Tuesday 18th September, and you can enter our challenges as many time as you like - happy crafting!

E for Evergreen

Good Morning, Carissa here with a new challenge for you but before we get to that I must say that you had some wonderful creations for our last Challenge D for Distress and we loved seeing all of the creative techniques that you used …. remember to check the sidebar to see if you are one of the 2 lucky winners and also see who Samantha chose for her Top 3 picks. 

I bet you are all wondering what our new challenge is. 
Well this time around, I am the host and for this fortnight I have chosen:
E for Evergreen

We are not asking to see the colour green but we won't mind one bit if you use it.
What we are looking for this time is all of that Traditional Christmas Greenery that we decorate with each year, so dig through your stash for all of your trees, holly and mistletoe, it is time to deck the halls.


Our Fabulous Sponsors for this challenge are

Simon Says Stamp with a fab $15 voucher excluding postage.
Photobucket

and

In 2 Stamps

Prize



Here's some inspiration from our Design Team:
