    • Trash to Treasure 19, HOUSE shaped Due May 6th 2021

    Received my lovely Trash Treasures today. What a fantastic seletction of goodies. Thank you!!
     
    I am glad all of the envelopes are arriving. You might find a 1/2 heart and an odd paper letter, in the envelope. They didnt make the list.

    I have about 25 envelopes for a swap I was going to do before Cancer. I wrote scrap bin on the envelope. I need to go look at those.
     
    I got my envelope yesterday. A quick question, the description says "green houses" , do we need to have the color green?
     
    Finished my cards, hope they meet the requirements!

    welcome home: roof=text from botanical page, calendar numbers, half circle from kit, door=red scrap paper (there is a surprise resident inside the door!)

    club house: text, rabbit stamp from envelope, metallic paper hole enforcer. When I found the words "club" and "house", it reminded me of when I was a kid, my Dad made me and my brother a club house behind the tree grove on our property. When I got older, he converted it into a rabbit hutch for me.

    I am so impressed. I am glad you found a way to use that calendar page so effectively. The red door scrap of paper is from a MR good Cents SuB sandwich bag. I tried to send One red, and two others. I am also so happy that you used the rabbit stamp from the envelope. I love the new Extra ounce stamps, vs those ugly patriotic men in hats.

    You did some super great art. I love hosting these swaps to see how others use my TRASH. You make me look at it in new ways. I have plenty.

    I love to see the use of those #19 stickers. They belong on medical charts and were given to me by a friend on Paperbackswap.com. She is mailing me some yellow 20s next.

    I am glad you could use the coloring page. I am NOT into adult coloring. I dont care for how it turns out. I am not neat enough to stay in the lines. Yes, I know. We dont need to stay in the lines.

    I was delighted and chuckled to see the use of the Trex from the letter I sent. I bought a pack of that paper at a yard sale for 50 cents. The package had 100 pages, so I have been trying to USE THEM UP!

    I really enjoy coloring, but haven't done much lately since I have become addicted to diamond painting instead, so it was fun to do a quick coloring project! I used glitter gel pens which didn't scan nearly as bright as it in real life.
     
    Finished my first two yesterday:
