La-La Weekly Wednesday Challenge 30 - Go Green . . . Recycle!

It's that time again for another La-La Land Weekly Wednesday Challenge.  This week, our challenge comes to us from none other than our hostess, ELENA!  She challenges us to a Go Green & Recycle!  What a perfect way to help Mother Earth!

Since Elena used Pirate Lala on her card for this challenge, Pirate Lala can be purchased at 20% off only for the week of this challenge.  What a deal!



As I was thinking what to do for this challenge, I realized that I have tons of scraps laying around!   What paper crafter doesn't?  The pile just gets bigger and bigger with time!  Ok, that was my starting point.  I've been seeing so many different ways of creating beautiful flowers.  Some use fabrics and others use paper!  The options are endless!  Here's what I came up with . . .



My girlfriend Michelle, over at Mushi's Creative Inspirations, recently did a tutorial on how she made her flower.  Click {HERE} to see how she made it.  I use my scraps in coordinating colors to create this card using Sitting Lala.  I added buttons to the center of the flower from my stash.  I dug into my ribbon drawer to see if I had any ribbon - - found this black one.   I thought I'd use it since I had this spool sitting in the drawer since the 1990's?  What a way to recycle this ribbon!

Now it's your turn!  See all the details for this challenge at La La Weekly Wednesday Challenge Blog.  **PLEASE READ THE NEW RULES CAREFULLY . . . YOU MUST USE A LA LA LAND STAMP OR DIGI IN YOUR PROJECT**
