UPcycled Congrats

Howdy peeps! Happy Monday! It sure got here fast, lol! I have another Splitcoast Stampers Dirty Dozen DT inspiration project to share with you this morning – a congrats card created with a piece of an empty tissue box! I’ve made several cards from upcycled tissue boxes over the last few months and always love how they turn out! Nothing like keeping a little something out of the landfill, even if it’s only a small piece!

I cut a 3-1/2″ x 6″ mini slimline card base from CutCardStock Basis 110# Natural cardstock along with a layering panel from CutCardStock Pop Tone Black Licorice cardstock. I trimmed a piece of the tissue box down to size and layered it on the black cardstock and then to the front of the card base. I die cut the sentiment from CutCardStock Basis 80# Natural and Pop Tone Black Licorice using the Kat Scrappiness Congrats Word Die with Shadow. The finishing touch was adding several Eyelet Outlet Black Glitter Enamel Dots.

I cut the inside panel from Basis 80# White and embellished it with a leftover piece of Black Licorice cardstock. I stamped the sentiment from the Keep It Simple Congratulations sentiment stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and layered the panel on Black Licorice.

Crazy cat lady and crafting junkie! We care for 15 feline rescues and just added a Forkie pup to the tribe (Frenchie + Yorkie)! I’m addicted to stamping and love making cards, ATCs, and 3-D projects (especially paper shoes, paper purses and mini albums). I also dabble in mixed media, art journaling, altered art and custom jewelry. If you’re looking for me, I’ll either be in my studio or getting some kitty or puppy lovins! ;)
