Very appropriate challenge for a week including Earth day. Not having a time machine available though I'm guessing you meant the deadline is April 24th - LoL!

Terrific set of cards and projects!

After browsing through this week's challenge, I discovered that a card I designed earlier in the week fits within the parameters of the challenge. I recycled drawings my Mom drew 26/27 years ago, now that's recycling . . . .LOL! A fabulous challenge Silke! I hope I'm not too late to play. I'm working on a card now with a very vintage peach that I'm so in love with, hopefully I can get it finished before leaving for Nashville and participate in this week's challenge.
