Midway reminder: R for Recycling

Good morning, Miria  here with some more inspiration for the  theme 
 R for Recycling 
so we want you to recycle something, paper, buttons, ribbons, etc. and we'd like you to tell us what it is in your post. 


Fabby sponsors are:

Prize

    
And now for some more fab samples from the DT:

Annette
Another 'tasteful' skirt
(Dusky pink mini-skirt this time. I dread to think how old this was!)

made into a little baggie.
I also recycled a ribbon from a very yummy box of chocs
and also the pink backing card was from an old office file divider.


And matching card, again using the old office folder divider
for the pink matt behind the image and die cut.


We celebrated our niece's confirmation
at the beginning of September.
And I brought home some parts of the table decorations. (I did ask!)
Recycled flowers, ribbon and the silver paper
from the placements cards.





I used a big matchbox

Samantha

Annette
 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!
