Red, white and beige bauble card

When taking down the Christmas decorations, I put most of the cards we have been sent in a box, too - in order to use bits from them in my own card making. I like to recycle the images into completely different and more elaborate cards, and it's fun to coordinate them with matching embellishments from my stash.

Here, I added a length of red ribbon - also recycled from a box of yummy Christmas chocolates - and punched a beige border with my Martha Stewart loop punch. The snowflakes are punched out of textured wall paper.
