Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers - #158 - U is for Upcycle

Good morning all you snarky fans! Edna has a new challenge up at


U is for Upcycle


For this challenge I decided to make a canvas piece that I am going to adhere to the front of a cardboard card... one day! I upcycled a little of different bits and bobs, but the best piece was the old rusty nail! This nail, and a whole pail full, came from a 150 year old beam that my son de-nailed to use in some furniture he was building. 
I just HAD to keep these... one never knows when one wants to get nailed!!! 


Not such a snarky piece, but it is upcycled for you! 

Thanks for taking a peek and I do hope you will join Edna and the Sistahs this challenge!!!You have 2 weeks to upcycle and share! 

((HUGS))

    Has a very upcycle almost steampunk feel with the nail, the buckle and gears (which I LOVE)
