DTBST #314: Do You Recycle?


Hi everyone and welcome to DTBST#314.
This weeks fun challenge is:

Do You Recycle?

We want to see your projects using an element 
 you recycled/reused/repurposed.


Hope you will join the fun and give it a go. You don't need to use a SSD image to play along, but we love it when you do. Enter by next Wednesday night for your chance to win 2 SSD images of your choice.

There is some extra incentive for using a SSD image, 
you get to enter twice. So if you use one, make sure you
 link to your blog post and the second link can just be to your blog 
(it won't let you link to the same post twice). After your name, please put SSD, so we know why you are linking twice!

I had so much fun planning and creating this project!! My oldest daughter turns 5 in February and wants to have an Ariel Birthday so this was perfect!!!

Here is my recycling-- This originally packages 3 rolls of foam tape:
All of the paper used in this project was also scraps so that counts for something right?
