SOS #179: Free Is Good! - Week 2

It's Tuesday, and we're in week 2 of our two-week challenge where we ask you to use something you got for free. Think: an RAK from a friend, a freebie included with an order, something you got as a door prize at a crafty event, something gifted to you because people think you can use just about anything on a card ... you know: free!

Here's some more inspiration for you:


Jessi
I used a Lawn Fawn set given to me by a friend!
Barbara
I used the free image from Meljen's Facebook challenge

Adorable. Free IS good! Please see last week's post for more details, and to link up. We hope you'll play along!
