This weeks Ways to Use It Challenge 225 was to use corrugated cardboard on your card/creation.
Think out of the box, oiy I already have a headache. I'm trying to use some of my goods so I don't buy anymore junk. I had just used an embossing folder in my Sizzix machine and immediately thought of my Palm Tree die cut for this challenge. I rummaged through the spare room and found a small piece of cardboard. Cut the die shape three times - cardboard, green paper and brown paper. I dampened the cardboard and peeled off the top layer to expose the corrugated part for the tree trunk, then sponged. Next I decided to make some clouds and a beachy landscape (not thrilled with how it came out).
That's it. TFL

I *really* like how you used the corrugated cardboard as the trunk of your palm tree--genius!!! This turned out great! Love the sponged clouds and that great coconut, too. Super job on the challenge!!!
