Upcycled Christmas Hare

This lovely image was the front of a Christmas card I received last year and thought it was far too lovely to pop in the recyling bin.  The image has lots of blue and silver glitter, which unfortunately  doesn't show up too well in the photograph.

The card was quite big as there were trees on both sides of the hare, but I die cut a smaller square framing the hare and moon.  This was then inlaid into a silver mirri frame to make another quick Christmas card.


To make this card I used:
     6 x 6" white hajmmer card blank
     Upcycled Christmas card
     Lawn Fawn 'Outside In Stitched Square Stackables' dies

I am entering the following challenges:
     ABC Christmas Challenge - S for Sparkle     
     Merry Little Christmas Challenge ' Anything Christmas Goes

A lovely image Kath. I like to save my nicest Christmas cards to upcycle too, it's such a shame to put them in the recycle bin as you say x
