(PICTURES ON THE INSIDE ARE BETTER)

I'm cool. Why, you ask? Because I have a collective transport youth card, which helps me save 150 bucks a month. I get a card and a receipt (that has to show if I take the train), and even a handy little plastic thing to keep it in. Very basic. Just two plastic pockets. The problem is that I always stuff my other three cards in it as well (library card, school ID, visa electron), and hence the plastic pockets always burst, which pisses the train/bus people off.

So I was bored, and decided to try making a cooler one out of masking tape. Actually, I wanted to make one in a fancy magazine clipping, but I liked the masking tape so much that I just used that. I'm going to make people draw on it, I think (I go to an art school).

What I needed:
Three pockets for normal cards
A see-through pocket for the bus card (so that they can see my face on the train)
A see-through pocket for the receipt


Oh, and the "decoration" is pixies-themed. Wrote "levitate me" in a bubble on the outside, and lyrics to "velouria" on the inside. The thing is held together by another piece of masking tape, where I drew a wand just because I wanted to.
