So, I've got a question, and a bunch of photos I just recently uploaded.

I'm at college, and the weather's still good enough for the table people to be out trying to convert you to Catholicism, environmentalism, Republicanism, La Roucheism, and ten billion Greek societies. Today I picked up a wide variety of stickers that I don't particularly want, because I had the idea of putting something over them. Printing out my own image, or pasting them in some way to fabric and making a fabric sticker. So, basically, free sticker paper, everyone!

But what should I use? Is there any type of glue that would work particularly well with that slick sticker paper? Is there anything I can put over my image to make it look more like a normal sticker? The only thing really coming to mind is Mod Podge, one of the few things I actually have in my dorm room.

And now for the crafts!

This is a badly-scanned wedding card. The colors just didn't come out right. The main piece is notebook paper, drawn on with a Sharpie and aged with tea, as if someone was dreaming of their wedding back in junior high or something. The other dark piece was also dyed with tea, rather erratically.

This is a tiny tin box I made for one of my friends. We had a tight-knit circle of four, and three of us are going off to college in far-away towns, while she's stuck at home, with none of her old friends. So I made her something, so hopefully she won't miss us as much.

This is the back...it did not come out as nicely as expected...fortunately, my non-crafting friends don't seem to notice these things.

This is the inside. Tiffany was holding the camera for the first picture, so she gets her own panel inside. And yes, that is lotion inside of a nylon. It's a long story.
