The image came from Joanna Sheen's Jane Shasky CD and the papers are Wild Asparagus from My Mind's Eye, these have been sitting in my paper pile for quite some time now. Everything else except the card blank has been recycled.
The Kraft card stock was the cardboard envelope that my last purchase of Kraft card stock was packaged in, the string was attaching labels to my son's jeans, the buttons were from one of my youngest son's old shirts and the little sticks with the sentiment on were once used to stir coffee, I thought they looked quite like the little labels used in plant pots.
The die cut border and corner are the new Spellbinders Lattice Accents designed by Sue Wilson, I know I said I wasn't going to buy any more until I had used all the ones I already have but I just couldn't resist these.
I have decorated the inside of my card to complement the front using a five inch insert from the Jane Shasky CD mounted on the recycled card stock and then layered onto some more of the papers and card stock.
I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

This is brilliant. Such clever recycling. I know a few people who'd be thrilled to get a card like this so thanks for the inspiration!
Oh Wow! this is fab Pauline! what a great image and I love the whole design! The trellis details and the little seed tags and twine for the sentiment - they are all genius. Gorgeous papers - it's a real stunner!

I do like this card and I may just have to give in and buy this cd. We would have been happy with just one or two items that had been recycled but you've used so much and it all works well together so well done you.
