Are you like me...

...you buy a pretty calendar with good intentions of using the pictures for something at the end of the year but never quite get around to it?
Well this year I intend to try and use as many of the images from my calendars as possible and this is the calendar I have used to make a start with. It wasn't very expensive (I think it was from the Card Factory - something like 59p or 3 for £1) but I just loved this little knitted character. Anyhoo, over at "CHNC" the current challenge is to make a card using something recycled...they are asking folk to breath new life into something - give it a new lease of life.

Not only have I recycled something but I've also made use of some bits that have been in my stash for some time.
The base card is a Papermania Kraft 8x8 card blank onto which I matted some Christmas PP from a cArt-us paper stack that I picked up in the sales. The image was the December picture from the calendar.
The glitter word 'believe' was from Making Memories and has been in my tote for ages and the red flower was a Papermania bloom that was left over from a pack (again found in my tote). The centre of the flower and the gems on the mistletoe were from the same sheet as the glitter word.

This is my entry for the current challenge, I've just got to think of some ideas on how to use the rest of these cute images.................................
