I even saved the gorgeous floral tags from my daughter's recent purchases from Hollister. Just have to cover up some wording, but the tags are super pretty! THanks for sharing your upcycled card with me. :) Hugs to you!Colleen Dietrichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00040402653622873853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1241307288948940797.post-44890416454427175692009-08-23T22:10:14.238-04:002009-08-23T22:10:14.238-04:00What a fabulous idea to scan the dragonfly and put...What a fabulous idea to scan the dragonfly and put it on a transparency!!!Sarah Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08746759211357915712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1241307288948940797.post-75292035583201137332009-08-23T21:07:34.771-04:002009-08-23T21:07:34.771-04:00Beautiful card Julie!

Scared me too because Chicago's air show was LAST weekend and I wasn't expecting it. Anyhow -- the craziest thing I'm still keeping and anticipating using are the plastic monkeys from my son's Barrell of Monkeys game. I have no idea what I'll do with them, but that's besides the point.

It's good to be back in touch with online friends again though :)<br /><br />I picked up a hinge the other day that I thought would work well on a metal book I mean to get made one day. It was lovely, full of old paint and just lying there in a car park. The trouble is, it appears to have vanished from the car where I put it - hmmm, don't think it was seen as an essential piece of art by my husband. I suspect it's been removed!! But I'm still on the lookout for bits of metal for that book! I want to make one that 'jangles'. I'm sure I must have picked up unusual things before and possibly used them but can't think of any!Sarah Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08746759211357915712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1241307288948940797.post-80372025377563009952009-08-21T13:33:51.335-04:002009-08-21T13:33:51.335-04:00gorgeous card and sentiment....
