Well, I managed to turn these into this:

I made a notebook, using some left over pieces of a pizza box, white sturdy paper and my bind-it-all machine...

The inside covers are covered with the new Basic Grey paper... and I made a matching back cover...

I cut the museum flyer into strips, and adhered some Basic Grey paper strips in between... then I added some brown paint, by using a resist technique with clear embossing powder and a harlequin stamp... then I glued the piece to the front cover...

I cut the packagingmaterial into usable pieces and used one to cover the focal point (magazine picture) of the cover, after stamping on it with white paint...

The other packaging piece I run through my die-cutting machine, to create this clear florishing embelishment...
I think it turned out really well, and the best part of it is that most used materials are from the garbage can...
Can't wait to see what you came up with...
