i have been musing about using less adhesive so i tried to do some cards with staples and old coffee bean bags from my friend brenda, owner of sauvie island coffee company. i also like the mixture of textures with the bags, corrugated cardboard, cardstock, and a clothespin.
this one has sparkly tissue paper as a heart along with staples holding down the oil cloth. i was having great fun and it was fun to put these together as they felt easy and simple and a bit thrown together.
this one has a metal washer with the word love on it, staples, hemp twine and corrugated cardboard. fun, fun, fun! send a card today!
another order from Designing Wahine in Maui! Yeahoooo! Aren't these vintage papers from Making Memories the best! go on, sing Wipeout - you're allowed!!
hope your day is filled with yummy things like smells from a great flower and breezes to soothe your soul. enjoy and write a card today! someone will enjoy it for sure!
i reconnected with friends from high school and grade school last weekend at the ol' 25th high school reunion and i was complaining that people didn't send cards anymore and my very fun friend kelly has graced my mailbox with two cards in the last week. this one totally made my day and i am so thrilled that she has proven me wrong!
ok, so not a great photographer lately but aren't these cute? if you were a bride or bride to be wouldn't you like to send these thank you cards?
display of boxed cards at my first farmer's market! didn't top the day for sales but super great people and an invitation to do another sale in june!
the full presentation of cards. i was right in back of the service memorial which seemed appropriate this weekend. send a card and make someone's day!
i love the color of this card and the saying makes me want to be awake when the sun rises. enjoy your day and put a sunrise in someone's mailbox by mailing a card today!
i have dreamed of putting cards together with oil cloth and here are some samples! aren't they cute!? i love the checks with the polka dots!
this one is a bit random but love the oil cloth - it reminds me of a tablecloth my grandmother had in the day!
this one is a bit different as it is with sparkly silver paper instead of oil cloth but i did this for a woman who owns a dress shop in portland and she wanted thank you cards.
This picture is my absolute favorite of my grandmothers. It was August 16, 1964 at the wedding of my parents. The fun thing is that both of my grandmothers were named Florence and their birthdays both in March.
So, I have been experimenting with other products aside from cards and here is an attempt at a tile that I made. It has retro bowling balls and pins on it with the quote, "We must have a passion in life." (George Sand) I think they're pretty hip and hope to get some produced for a sale in Eugene on February 18th.
