Cards for causes - a bit box card

As you probably know, our team of independent Stampin Up Demonstrators, 
Julies' Jems, each month make cards and donate them to a worthwhile cause or charity.
I make best use of my bit-box to make cards out of the bits of card
 and DSP or ribbon, that might otherwise be thrown away, or in my case
 - they are usually far too pretty to be thrown away!
So they frequently end up in batches of cards destined for such cards for causes.
Here's one I made today,


This is a really CAS  card - a 7" x 5" base card
matted and layered with Black and Tempting Turquoise (retired) cardstock,
then a panel of DSP  that I couldnt bear to bin, 
but couldnt tell you it's origin as it's years old!!
I think this has come together really well.
I have another piece of this DSP so I think that I
will make a thank you card of the same design for a different charity with that!!
Nothing ever gets wasted in the Martin craft room!!
