Way to go with the recycling - beautiful card - thanks for entering my CHNC challenge 108 - you could also enter this into my new CHNC challenge extra for January - I'd love to see it there too. X

Beautiful card. Fabulous image and can't blame you for re-using it and goes so very well with the bag and all the bits and bobs.
Now I don't want to panic you cos' it may be me but have you used the card the wrong way round as I thought the straight edge was the fold, I hope not unless you are able to pull the main backing off or cut round the bag bit and attatch to another card.

Beautiful card, love the image too. Hope you have started to warm up, my heating stopped working due to a power cut and was only off for a few hours but it seemed to take forever to warm the house again. Hugs, Amanda x

Very pretty Sandra, love the colours. I would have thought more normal weather in England was grey and rain, at least the snow is a departure from the norm, lol!!
