There seem to be a few cards featuring beads in the gallery right now, so I thought I'd add another. This is a 70th birthday card for a male friend. I used bits and pieces, odds and ends, from my collage stash. The image is from a brochure or catalog for something--I no longer recall what--but it fit perfectly with the theme. I used heavy watercolor paper for the card's base to be sure it would support the weight of the layers and elements. The quote is computer-generated and coffee-aged.

Did you know that today's Ways to Use it challenge was to use beads? You and I were on the same creative bent today...don't you love doing collage? Your card is absolutely gorgeous and I love Madeleine L'Engle....never heard that great quote before though! TFS!

...sure it�s got a catchy beat, but can you stamp to it?
life is something that happens only when you run out of cardstock
