...and much like the mailman despite
heat waves and early dismissals
and the end of school by golly
paper crafts you'll have!
So lets say your stuck on a desert island
and didn't bring anything to give that gift card in.
I am sure you brought a book to read
so lets use it!
Trim your sides, center and fold!
What could be easier?
If your lucky you might have brought
along a little seam binding and a stamp or
maybe you can grind down
some roots to make ink.
Keep folding!
I have a new stash of seam binding!
Thanks to a friend
I am rolling in it like catnip.

You can even do this for jewelry!
This could work so many ways!
I feel like a junkie....
on paper.
I could just keep going!
Let's see what else we can do!
Happy Monday!
Those are so cool!!! You've really got my brain going...especially cause I'm always wanting to do something with those wonderful 'security envelope papers'... I can't stand having to throw them out...or throw any cool paper out. The main problem is...I don't really have anyone to give them to :( *sigh

Patty, you're a marvel! All the stationary I've ever seen looks so drab compared to your pretties here. ^__^ Can't wait to see what other tricks you have up your artistic sleeve!

Oh, Maryl! I know the feeling!
I keep most of the security mail envelopes I receive to use them in projects; mostly I turn them into tiny confetti to include in the mail...
