SoSS #238 - U is for Upcycle

Greetings and salutations snarky pals, hope all is well in your corner of the universe!

Thanks for stopping by to check out the latest challenge from Edna and the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers as we bring you U IS FOR UPCYCLE.

We want to see what you can reuse, repurpose or upcycle on your project.

I upcycled a library card from my crafty pal MIMI, used a piece of amazon bubble packaging and watercolour markers to make the coloured pattern on the library card and a (yep I did) toilet paper roll in black ink to create the pattern on top of the bubble wrap.

If you look super close, you can kind of see the toilet paper roll in the bottom left of the picture and the card is sitting on the bubble wrap.

The snarky sentiment was sent to my in the most awesome gifty package from my crafty pal DEENA

(I know, I have the best crafty pals!!!)

• White cardstock (Recollections)
• Library card (from Mimi)
