This tin was actually designed to hold 2 gifts...a bookstore gift card and a handmade beaded bookmark.
ETA 5/18/09 This tin was from the "Curiously Strong Breathmints"! I love to recycle and reuse packaging!
This challenge was so fun- rummaging thru my recycling bins to find goodies & think outside the box treasures!
The red/silver paper was from a friend's wedding invitation envelope! I also stamped & punched out flowers from one of the inserts. The green ribbon was actually a scrap from cutting off the ends from another card too!
Just resubmitting (and hopefully giving some inspiration to et started) for the gogreen challange. Most of these squares (all exept the on with the sentiment and the one below that) are wrapping paper and bits of paper found just about everywhere (PP is really hard to find here - at least for a decent price - so I have a whole drawer full of all kinds of scraps I collected)
No question who this was inspired by (Trace44)! It took my about a week to long for the inspiration challenge but still... I got to include some dots; so all is fine! TFL!
I decided to experiment with this big bloom from the CL322 Artistic Borders set by embossing it in white on a coffee filter. I did this three times and sponged the petals with plum ink. Once I put the layers together the flower reminded me of this pp background from SU. I matted the flower with a circle cut out of a page from an old book on Paris (seemed fitting as the SU pp collection is called Enchante!). The die cut leaves were clear embossed with K5107 Screen Shadow background stamp and then the edges were inked and bent slightly. The plum colored curved squares are actually paint chip samples I ran through the CB Swiss Dot folder and then lightly sanded. The vellum on the punched butterfly (MS punch) actually came from a magazine ad for pear flavored vodka!
TFL!

The #FlickrFriday #GoGreen challenge
Fungi are Nature's great recyclers, feeding upon and breaking down organic matter, returning it to the soil for use once more in the great cycle of life. Going Green in the recycling sense was established in nature aeons before we thought of it.
Fungi are neither animal nor vegetable, but distinct and one of the least understood members of the kingdom of life. 17,000 species have been described in the UK, with a million (some say ten million) species worldwide, fewer than 10% of which have been described. They include yeasts, moulds, mildews, and of course specimens found in woods like this one which I think is an aged and fairly battered clustered bonnet, one of the commonest of the UK woodland species. We simply see the fruiting body. The rest of it, a huge threadlike structure, the mycelium, is held within the tree stump which this specimen stands on. Ultimately it, alongside other organisms, will turn the stump to soil.
The photo is HDR/macro taken with 32mm of extension tubes to get in really close to reveal the colour and texture of the underside, usually not apparent to casual observers.

Created for the go green challenge! It's a birthday card for my sister! The acetate flowers were punched form Nestabilities packaging. The leaves were stamped on an envelope from a bill. The buttons were spares from my daughters clothing!
PP is October Afternoon and Cosmo Cricket and other scraps.

I'm resubmitting this one for the go green challenge. I used a paper towel roll to hand cut the branch and stamped it with the Four Leaf Grid stamp.
I used a a tissue from restaurant (I was there to eat with my DH and my sons then I see ooh a pretty tissue, then I took one piece for me in my bag :) this is really pretty tissue I have ever seen).
I made this flower like Tami´s Instruction on the discussion thread and sewing a bit with the button together. (thanks Tami for step by step you gave us)
The recycle things are:
1. Tissue Paper, cut and gave the dye tea color on the edge and sewing it in the middle.
2. The button bought from Ebay (100 pieces for 1 Euro only..)
3. The card stock is from old card I ever made and the result was not so nice, also I used again this time and doble it with another white paper (as a new cardstock)
4. Stamped it as a one layer card, oops I have stamped the swirl first then the words....also a bit "accident" but I think the result is enough good for an accident :), gave the sakura flower from CL275 around the corner of the swirl.
5. The leaves are from Kelly Booth, many thanks Kelly for sent me this nice stamping images... :)
Thanks for looking :)

I used the Hero Arts clear set Artistic Borders (CL322). The line of dots across the card and small flower stamps on the inchies all from the same set..
The squares are the cardboard tiles from a Bingo game that I have scavenged the box and now the numbers from. I covered the inchie boards with a wonderful handmade blue paper and stamped flowers from the Artisitic borders set. The original cardboard squares or inchies are an horrendous color of yellow background and bright blue numbers.

I just came back from CA several hours ago, but was determined to do something for the gogreen challenge... sorry for the terrible picture, but it's almost 2am here so the lighting isn't that great, and I don't have any good way of photographing something this tall. :P
I decided to make a topiary out of tissue paper flowers -- the same kind of flowers that Tami made in her gorgeous gift package on Tuesday. I recycled tissue paper (white, light blue, dark blue), a wedding favor shot glass I received years ago, packing peanuts and disposable chopsticks from take-out. I used the Raindrop Background to stamp brown dots on the blue tissue paper, and stamped the DB Flourish in blue ink onto white tissue paper. One chopstick served as my stem and packing peanuts keeps it in place.
*EDIT:
You can see a closeup of the flowers and see my detailed instructions with recycled materials in my photostream. I also tried to take a better picture of the topiary today. Thanks for looking!
I'll have to go to bed now, but I know I must have lots in the pool to catch up on! :)
