In the last couple of weeks, I’ve been going through and cleaning out my craft room (again). In the process, I’m finding a lot of memorabilia in the way of ticket stubs, business cards, etc that I want to eventually include in my Project Life layouts but right now just seem to be sitting around getting shuffled into stacks of papers, projects and, well, mess. One set of tickets even went through the wash. Yeah. I really needed a solution to store them safely without filling another box of stuff. Then it hit me. If I’m going to include it in Project Life then why not just attach them to Project Life cards?

I apologize in advance for the crappy pictures. I’m still figuring out which angles work for the Project Life layouts. Any tips?Now, let’s get right to the pictures shall we?I used the Project Life Cobalt Kit – mainly because it was the only one left in stock – but I’m really pleased.
