Paper to Pearls is a project of "Voices of Global Change" that sells jewelry crafted from recycled paper that is handcrafted by women in refugee camps in Uganda. Almost all of the proceeds from the jewelry is returned directly to the women so that they can become independent and provide educational opportunities for their children. Learn more at www.papertopearls.org/. Photographs taken at the DC Green Festival on November 7, 2008.

Lots of great artists but I didn't get all of their names.

A clever way to preserve memories is to use elements brought back from hotels (or tour tickets, etc) and incorporate them into your design.

I used the welcome envelope and matchbox in this scrapbook layout.

These are 4x5 format paper negatives (scanned and reversed) which I took at a photo workshop at the weekend (run by Alastair Cook alastaircook.com/ ) at the John Gray Centre, Haddington, as part of the Festival of Museums.

This is a one page description from 1956 of an attachment to the Monotype keyboard which perforates a plain roll of paper in the machine. It can take a roll up to 7" in diameter; this would alleviate any current Monotype paper shortages. I am interested if any one has this attachment & how easy would it be to machine copies. On the internet, one can see pictures of the real thing on Tipoteca Italiana's Monotype keyboard in Italy.

Two months ago I discovered such a wonderful theme like paper lightboxes! I found it very interesting and started to learn this creating style
