Reuse and Repurpose

Wow, it's almost the New Year 2020.  Christmas was extremely stressful so I'm looking forward to a brighter and better new year!!  Remember the beautiful origami kimono that Brenda made here?  It's been on my desk for the whole year and now it's time to purpose this gorgeous calender.

When my brother comes to town he asks if I have any Ningyogami cards to give him.  Knowing this, I carefully repurposed Brenda's paper kimonos and made some cards to send him.  Here are some of the 12 cards on its way to Vegas....

Paper:  DCWV The Far East
Charms:  Unknown from the LSS
Punch:  All Night Media "Good Luck" 

January is next week and it's all about New Years Resolutions.  As some of you may know, I received  many of my mom's crafting treasures--most of them never used and still in the package.  I resolve to use each one of those "collectibles" (for stamps a minimum of 3 times) or send them to others who I know would appreciate and use them....  that's my crafty goal for 2020.  What's yours?
