January Challenge - Sara L

This wonderful project for our January "NEW" challenge is from Sara L...


Sara's words:
Here is my altered Starbucks Coffee sleeve turned into a gift card holder!

This is a NEW technique that I am trying out. I had a lot of fun playing around with this and also love that it is a green project! I drink copious amounts of coffee and have been collecting the sleeves for weeks now so that I can do a few fun things with them and I have tons of them!


I used all scrap paper and things that I had in my stash! I didn't have to go out and buy anything at all (well except for the coffee and gift card) to make this with and I love how it came out!


What better way to give someone a Starbucks gift card than with a handmade themed gift card holder, all while being green!


















The January Challenge is to do a NEW project. This can be a layout, card, or any kind of project having to do with NEW. You may want to use the word new in your title, this could be about a new year's resolution - or could be a new technique or tool you used to complete your project.

    Wonderful way to recycle! I love the papers, the corrigated paper and button you used. I am sure a coffee drinker would love to receive this gc and the gc holder. (the holder is a gift in itself)

    Very clever, I like how it opens up. And I couldn't help noticing your ring too - it's beautiful!
