Charity begins at home....




I DARE you to visit your local Charity Shop & make someone else's
TRASH your STASH!
.........and make a GORGEOUS card from what you find.You'll be amazed at the special little treasures you'll find if you only take the time to look with CREATIVE EYES
You can always trust Gillian to come up with a dare that has a vintage feel to it!!!! Lucky for me I bought a big bag of buttons the other week from a Charity shop so I had something to play with already. Amongst the buttons was this little metal one which is so pretty, I thought it was perfect for this dare!
pp crate twirl, ribbon and buckle from making memories, heidi swapp chipboard letters, and autumn leaves stamp.
I've been busy this week with a few more challenge cards for the JB forum. The first one is for the touchy feely challenge;
Easy as 1 2 3;
Get tearing;
Hope you all have a good weekend!
