DT Post for LEJ Dsigns: Recycle it/household items

Good morning - its Tuesday so that means its time for a new challenge over at lejdesignschallengeblog. This week the challenge involves recycling or using household items (or both).
This week there will be two winners with the first out of the hat receiving their choice of three digis from LEJ Designs.


The second name out of the hat will win a prize from our sponsor this week, Mishelflo

 at http://mishelflocreativecrafting.co.uk/

Here's my card for the design team - I used an LEJ Designs image called Dawnbreaker - this and many other images can be found here. My recycling is the 'sun' behind my rooster - it was a wrapper for an extra large chocolate coin from starbucks. Yum!



I created the background using pan pastels and tied the edge with twine for a natural look.

I'd like to enter this card into the following challenges:
papermakeupstamps: Things with wings
emergencycrafterschallenge: Anything with wings
365cards: day 107colour combo
fatpageswithattitude: Anything goes.

So that's my Tuesday card - I hope you all have a fab day and do try and have a look over at the challenge if you get chance - its a goodie!

Hugs Rachel xx
