I've been saving this orange polka dot magazine ad for months, not really knowing what to do with it, but knowing that inspiration would come to me eventually. When I discovered a used cd in my pile of magazine tearouts, I thought it might make a good base for my polka dots. So I chopped up my ad, added some black strips cut from another magazine page, and here you have... well, a cd with orange spots. This might become a cover for a round book.

Cheryl, this is great...it's vibrant, it's fun, it's useful and it reuses...what could be better?!? I too save all kinds of things that grab my attention. I might not know what it will be used for -- but down the road, it always is!
Love the colors... I do have scraps from magazines that are put away for that burst of inspiration! wonderful when it all comes together, yes?
The jean card is so cute - I have a pair of jeans I keep meaning to turn into a tote purse... I just need to figure out how to use the sewing machine hee,hee...
