Okay....I remembered another project that I just recently completed that I should include here....It's a mini album made with paper bags (the inner pages) and it uses a Prima package insert as an Owire cover.

Earth Day (April 22nd) is fast approaching. I think it's wonderful all the scrapbooking companies that have begun to go green with recycled products, soy based inks and bulk packaging. But, I for one, think the indsutry has a long way to go. There are literally hundreds of product packaging that get tossed everyday. If we each were able to reuse and recycle just one package a day..that would be millions of items not heading for land fills.

I love to reuse packaging. I reuse acetate for cards and embellishments. A recent card I did is featured in this months Scrapbooking.com magazine here.

Here are several other projects using product packaging from empty containers to product backings.

AccuCut

I got this AccuCut Grand Mark machine when one of my LSS's went out of business a while back. It was a great deal...and I love to make my own chipboard, clipboard and acrylic projects. Let me share a few things I've done:







Thanks so much for sharing Vicki! Your work is beautiful eye candy and very inspiring!

Spread the love,
Heidi
