Love affair

Contrary to our posts...or lack thereof...I've been busy creating new postcards and beginning a love affair with duct tape (sorry Brad!). I think that the paperback romance novels that I've also been collecting and partnering with the duct tape have been fuelling this affair. Funky little wallets and change purses are being born on my desk thanks to some inspiring websites. Check out Dustin Kirks  simple instructions for making a duct tape wallet and Refabulous for paperback book-cover wallets. I combined both ideas and have been making a no-sew hybrid from duct tape, old paperback covers (please note that no books were intentionally harmed for this project), and clear sticky-back shelf liners.

I've also been making and sending my little card catalogue postcards around the world with Postcrossing.com. I've just sent two more off this week, one to Russia the other to North Carolina, USA. These are the postcards that are currently travelling:

I've also added a couple more postcards that got sent a few weeks ago, to our Flickr account. So please take a look at: http://flic.kr/ps/LUA1F
