Happy EARTH Day Everyone!!
In the spirit of EARTH day, the Paper Maniac girls have an inspiring week of creations using recycled items on our cards. It's so much fun finding ways to use things I normally would have thrown away, on my crafty projects. Can you tell what items I have used in the project above??
The sun is the topper of a spice jar, which I removed so that I could reach my measuring spoon into it, and then I thought, wow, I could probably use this on a project. I painted it yellow with acrylic paint and added some peachy-orange pearls to the holes, to simulate brighter rays of sunshine.
The grass is the corrugated cardboard piece that comes wrapped around hot beverages. (This one in particular came from a Dunkin Decaf White Chocolate Latte...mmmmmm, Yum!) It had a perfect little arch to it, and I immediately thought, hillside!! I painted it two shades of green with acrylic paint. I never tried painting on my cards before, but I really like the way it came out.
The stamps are from Unity Stamp Co- Could I Be Any Cuter?, I used Memento ink and Copics to color the image. Easy peasy!
Hope you have an enjoyable EARTH day!!
