The buttercup cardstock is the only element on the card that is NOT recycled.
The corrugated background is from a used USPS priority mail box. The outer white layer of paper on these boxes peel off easily to reveal the wonderful corrugated paper beneath.
Then there is a layer of used gift wrap that I had saved and the Frog Stamp from Wild Frog Creations was stamped on a scrap of white card from my scrap box. Colored with markers.
I had taken apart an old belt of mine (my waist grew) instead of donating it or trashing it. I saved the entire belt. I'll find a use for it. The three clear circular rhinestones with brass frames on the left side of the card are from that belt. The three brass nail heads below the frog are also from that belt.
The piece of leftover raffia was twisted in the middle with a piece of wire and attached as a bow.
I'll have to figure this out sooner or later, so I just came back to edit this post and follow the rules. Here is the link to the Found Objects Challenge at Gingersnaps.
Fantastic!! You have rocked the Found Objects challenge - I think you've used more than anyone else I've come across. This is an adorable "green" card, in more ways than one :). Thanks for playing!
