I keep having good intentions of using up the 'box of bits and pieces' and this card helped a little.
The background, trellis and words were all in there, and the photo was from from a reduced size scan of the original 'Found Relative' .
I really must make the effort to keep using up these bits before they take over!
I am entering this at Eclectic Ellapu - Shabby or Vintage
Thanks for calling in and enjoy the rest of the weekend.

Oh dear - so sorry to hear you've been feeling so horrible - hope it's passing now. And I'm happy to see it hasn't kept you away from your scraps box - this is a lovely collaged card.

Glad to know you are feeling better - colds can be so nasty.
You have put all these bits and pieces together beautifully. I am not so good at that. Perhaps if I made more and talked less I could improve!!!

Hope by now you are feeling better! This is fabulous and more so for using up some scraps! Chrisx
I'm happy to hear you are feeling better! And that you are using up those scraps--something I seriously need to do or toss them! Clever collage; love that sweet lady--one of my favorites! Hugs1
