when i saw this today i thought it was so beautifully presented and interesting. i'm also a fan of the little tape marks. these are the insides of security envelopes. reusing these is a great way to recycle, plus the patterns are kinda amazing. he also posts on his blog a link to a flickr set collection of these.
the first time i saw these put to good use was on remake's etsy store, which is no longer open. i wish that i had know about her stuff sooner and gotten one of her journals. (what happened—it looked like such a successful store?) these are some of her repurposed security envelopes. great idea.

Hello-
ReplyDelete(I followed the link to your blog from the Storque News of the Craft and Style Blogosphere.)
WRT to this post, do you know the Sweetie Pie Press? She's been collecting and recycling security envelopes too... and recently had a show here in Toronto. Here's her etsy.
Cheers,
Ele (aka minouette)
