As I walked back from my weekly Saturday farmers' market stroll, I noticed that our across-the-street neighbors had left a cardboard box full of stuff by the curb. A peek inside the box revealed several photo books about Irish castles and unicorn tapestries: score!

This work is fantastic & beautiful! And I'm so jealous about your trash score!

Wow, the skies are awesome. Really love it. I used to live in Ireland, I would love it if you could include the name of some of the castles. It will especially fun for me if you use that book as a theme and make heaps of these. I know that one on the top, but for the life of me can't remember it's name. It's an Abbey right?

Must keep an eye out by the pavement as I walk by - you just never know what you'll find - great card and a fantastic way of getting material and inspired!

Thanks, everyone. Looking through this little book makes me want to visit Ireland and see the castles firsthand. The photographs are enchanting!
JJ, the castle on the address side with the sheep is the Castle at Lisdoonvarna, Co. Clare. The castle on the front is Roch Castle, Co. Louth. I'll identify the castles in follow-up posts: great idea.
