"Renewed" Card #11-2014

Old card repurposed!  I originally made this card in 2011 and kept is as a sample because I got ink on the card back.  I could not, would not trash it as this one is labor intensive so I had on display for 3 years.  Last week I decided the front is great so why not give it a new back and swap it.  I cut the back off the original card, trimmed the edges a bit, added a little glue, attached it to a new natural ivory card base and sent it to California.  Great way to repurpose a prototype card.

A very simple "Hello" card to start off 2014. I made this card using a kit from Dawn O of DO Stamping with Dawn. I love her monthly kits and I can't wait to get the January set.
