Christmas card club challenge....Maureens choice "upcycle an item onto your card "...

one of my favorite things to do is keep the cards I like and then make them into new cards...these are made from some M&S cards from a few years ago....



I have used the lettering and matted an layered it up with red mirri...red glitter on super double sided tape....and lots of dew drops for the holly berries...I had 3 of these cards sent to me one year and thought they were lovely and now they have a new life....



tick the box Maureen?....
