PInk Paislee Challenge #4

For this challenge Mona Pendleton challenged
us to incorporate upcycling into our cards.
Pink Paislee packaging is so cute that it was easy to find something to upcycle.
On this card I made the "note" label piece out of the packaging from
some PP "Old School" product.
It was printed with ledger style lines which worked in perfectly with my card.
I used my Stampin Up die to cut it out so I will link this up to the
challenge at The Kraft Journal.
You can read more about that HERE.
Kraft Cardstock: The Kraft Outlet
flowers: Petaloo "Hydrangeas"
all other: Pink Paislee
I do love that Stampin Up die (I think it is called "top note", not sure) and it
runs thru my Cuttlebug like a dream.
Well, that's it for today.
We are officially on "Fall Break"!
A drive to Michigan to enjoy the fall trees is at the top of my to do list.
thanks for stopping by!

Really adorable card, Lynn! I love the upcycled packaging on here. It's beautiful, and I love the thought of reducing waste, too. Love the bird and love the die cut shape. Really elegant. :)
Thanks so much for playing along with us at The Kraft Journal.
