I've been a little obsessed lately with making paper confetti out of old scraps, books and magazines. Where did this idea even come from? I can't remember. I just think I would love to open an envelope and have my kind of confetti fall out. It's so much more interesting than those tacky little shapes that you usually get. Pretty pretty pretty. And I've been using it in collages, too.
