Ez — Wed, 03 Feb 2010 16:45:39 +0000

This awesome idea was shared the other day by reader Trude in the comments section of a previous post here on Creature Comforts. Isn't this such an awesome way to use your instant film picks in a creative way?! Of course creating hearts from instant film isn't a brand new concept, but it sure is a sweet one. See more images of this idea on The Image is Found.

By the way...there's an awesome giveaway coming up next...and it has something to do with this post. Hmmm...I wonder what it will be?! Hope you'll be here to find out. xo
