Daisy Select. Most gawked all-time. Images | Welcome to SaiFou - Inspiring images. Fun with Foam Printing - Easy Tutorial. I loved this idea because not only can you recycle these horrid polystyrene containers, but the process is really simple. You could even use tracing paper and trace your design so you don't even need to be able to draw. You could make a whole series of cards like this or just a colorful print to hang on your wall and cheer up the place.

Materials needed: Foam or polystyrene container pencil paint or ink small roller 1. Cut a large section of foam from your container. 2. 3. 4. 5. Happy printing!

A lovely JSIM blog reader, Amy, sent to me scanned images of letters that her great grandfather had written to her great grandmother in 1923 when they were dating.

Have you ever seen such vintage sweetness in all your life? Just look at that gorgeous Spencerian penmanship! Amy knew that many of my readers use digital images for crafting and asked that I share them. It is my great pleasure, thank you very much Amy.Click on images to enlarge and save. I have also included an additional sheet of envelope, parcel and label (Photoshopped) images from my stash of stuff. Enjoy! If you happen to make anything using Amy’s images, I hope you’ll share a photo with us, just email me if you do.

These files are completely free for you to use in any project, I simply ask that the images are not resold as digital files. I printed the files onto inkjet magnet sheets from Office Depot.

First I cut each label apart loosely. Then trimmed out each with a bit more precision. The magnet sheets are pretty thin, so magnets made this way easily stick to metal surfaces, but won’t hold things up, such as notes and photos. It’s also fun to create cheese pinwheels.
