Lately I have been obsessed with old library catalog cards. I have been dreaming of making artwork using recycled catalog cards and was fortunate enough to obtain a few from the Richardson Library. I am hoarding my stash until I think of the perfect art piece for them, but until then I have been browsing other people’s catalog card projects.

I wish I’d known about this beauty when we were in San Francisco last summer.

This girl has done some pretty amazing stuff on library catalog cards. I would definitely suggest checking out her blog or flickr to view some of her other work.
