MMM - Mid-week Motivation - Upcycling

This week I have a little tip for you - before you throw away spent envelopes from your morning post - check inside.
Look what I found this morning


This gorgeous leaf pattern was inside an envelope  - nearly thrown away!!
Here's what I made with it

    Really gorgeous Jacqueline and it's something I do too although I've never yet seen a green one like this. It makes a fabulous background.

    Wow - that is a really fab. piece of recycling! I don't think I have ever seen an envelope quite like that one before - love the way you've used it on your card.
