Mornin All--Just going thru my list of LO's to look at and comment on and one from 4squirts inspired my brain to work for a change. The LO was titled "Puffs" and what caught my attention was the fact she salvaged a dragonfly from sudden death in the trash to an embelli on a LO. Now I do this alot because I have a very small income so here is the challenge. Do an entire LO from things found,rescued, someone else's trash or whatever just so it is totally trash. Even the paper if possible just to see what we can all come up with and see how really creatative we can be without running to the closest store. My title for this is Road Kill Adventure or The Trash Can Experience. No set time limit just title it so we know what it is about as we have to take time to find this stuff. RIGHT let's have some fun and laughs with this. Thanks Scrapbaby

OK we won't tell my daughter that lives here in Reno but I went dumpster diving up at the complex she manages today. They had just picked up the trash but I did find a metalic blue balloon with no air in it great for paper and a coffee cup holder from Brewsters Coffee not much but a start. Almsot forgot an earring in a parking lot Thanks again 4squirts for the idea all because of your little dragonfly.

Here's the deal I have my first LO for this done and will be posting it on the regular site just have no idea how to do it to this as I am computer illerate!!!Here is what I did Used the old chalkboard as the LO because it had old twine on it for hanging. The green paper behind the photo was the cardboard from the packaging on some gel-a-tins I bought.Green ribbon at the bottom is actually a rubberband bracelet I found on the street.Tag is off a dress I bought for summer from Target and the flower-- The foil is from the coffee can tin, flower center is the center of the gallon of milk lid,and the colored parts of the flower I cut out of a Circut City ad that came in the mail and was getting tossed. Guess it will do for a start. So please would a loving Sister please tell me how to get the photo here to this spot. Thanks and I love you.
