Magic Jelly Paper Chase project

Karena of Magic Jelly came with the lovely idea of the Paper Chase project. Fuelled by a love of old papers and ephemera, she asked people to send her their own finds, with which she'd make a collage for the sender (the payment being allowing her to keep any spare paper!). There's some great photos of the wonderful items she's received on the site.

Karena is also a really talented illustrator of cute retro-inspired characters and everyday items. I love her original mixed-media pieces too. You can find her on Etsy.
