Partly recycled - thank you card

Hello dear bloggers,

Here is a card which has been made out of an Indian wedding invation card. The light blue metallic paper was also an invitation card for an Indian ceremony where a toddler's hair is shaved off. This has a scientific basis to it which says that removing the first crop of hair is healthy.  The paper has been with me for over 12 years and finally, I did something with it. The sentiment and the light blue dots have been die cut from the same paper. I have used my trusted Cuttlebug for the bigger circles. For the tiny light blue dots, I took a hole puncher and cut out these circles for added interest.


I will take part in the following challenges:
