Blast from the Past

I don't often use construction paper but that doesn't mean I don't keep some on hand just in case. As I found the box holding some of my designing aids like freezer paper sheets and graph paper, I also found an envelop holding this pad of construction paper. Oh my! And check out that price point. Yes, I am a long-time hoarder, it cannot be denied!


Don't you love these color names? I suppose back in the late 60's or early 70's when this came out, you couldn't find the bright "happy" colors advertised here. Frankly, they don't seem so bright anymore, or perhaps they've faded over time. Anyway, I may play with them a bit as I flesh out another circle idea. Wonder if I still have any hippie clothes hidden away that I could don to get me in the mood?

I'm thinking pop art.
