It seems that I have gotten into a habit of starting off by saying it has been a long time. . . not this time. I recently purchased a set of mugs. Each mug was wrapped up in corrugated cardboard. As I unpacked each mug, I thought to myself, what a waste! I immediately informed my husband to not throw out the corrugated cardboard as I wanted to keep them to create some cards. Well I received the funniest look ever! Anyways, I did manage to come up with a few cards and have sent out a few packages out to some of my cyber friends challenging them to create with the corrugated cardboard. I will post one card tonight and the rest later as I want to see what they come up with.
This is a card a I taught with my group of ladies – again I got the funny looks when I said we were going to reuse some corrugated cardboard – but when I showed them the card, I got the reaction I wanted – oos and ahs . . . here is my card
So what do you think? I am hoping that you got the same reactions too. Drop me a line and let me know.
If you would like to challenge yourself, try a card or twp with corrugated cardboard. If you don't have any, you can always use your crimper. Please link your card back to my blog so I can see your creation.
Thanks for stopping by. In a few weeks, I will post the other cards I made. Have a wonderful evening! ~ Pat

Wow, Pat, I LOOOOOVE this! I think I'll have to CASE it, if you don't mind. I really like the delicate, shimmery card base that contrasts with the rustic look of the cardboard. Great card. Thanks for visiting my blog - nice to know you've stopped by :)
