Default Has anyone seen.....

I was on some blogs the other night and saw a bookmark that was made out of one of the long paint chip sample cards you get at the hardware store. I made some and wanted to give credit....but can't find it for the life of me. Anyone know which blog I'm talking about?

Wowsers, these are all brilliant! I'd seen the "How About Orange" one before, but not the others. Maybe I'll be inspired and use some of the paint chips that I, too, have been hoarding. :oops:

I think I like the rounded corners best. They look more finished. Gee, I think I have some of those just lying around. Hmmm.......

i agree, the rounded corners make a BIG difference in the overall style. and the eyelet and the big ribbon. all three elements take it from cute to pretty. just my opinion.

These are really cool! What kind of ink would you use? It seems like the chips are kinda slick, ya know?
