a couple of projects for clubscrap challenges
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Bucket List
Club scrap had a challenge to create a bucket list
so i decided to take one of the journals that i made from recycled paper and make the cover of it my bucket list
the pages of the journal are made from old dot matrix printer paper the covers are from an old priority mail box
and the front is done with scrap pieces of paper from the Cyprus kit
The list is attached with removable adhesive so I can change or add to it as I think of more things I can also add lists to the back and inside covers.
I plan to use the journal to create plans and goals to achieve the items on my list
and to add pictures of the things that are competed
This is the Butterfly I made tonight for The Butterfly Project
The Butterfly Project is an effort by the Holocaust Museum of Houston to commemorate the 1.5 million children who perished. They are collecting 1.5 million crafted butterflies for use in a display. You can find out more here: http://www.hmh.org/minisite/butterfly/index.html

recycled LP record holder ( ribbon rack)
clip it and Ribbon rack
here are pictures of my version of the clip it embellishment and supply holder
I had seen several ideas for making these but none of them would work since i really don't have much counter space
so we took a curtain rod hung it below my shelf and i used the really cheap curtain hooks 1.99 per package of 12
for the clips I used the snap on name tag holders they were 12 in a package for 2.99 .
for some of my bigger items I found some plastic clothspins that had a hole in the handle I put a key ring thru the hole then hung them with the curtain hooks
I have close to a hundred clips on it the rod spans about 5 foot. i have a hook in the middle of it for support . its full but i can easily see and reach all of my suppliesclose up of the hooks with clothpens
