Three new sheets, with inclusion

I got a box of stuff from the UPS man today:
• More couch sheets (I'm beginning to think I can't have too many.)
• Three casting moulds: Evergreen trees; a fall leaf; and four small leaves.
• A booklet on paper castingg
• Some mint green iridescent flakes (shiny!)
New Sheets
I made three sheets: green cigarette box, red NetFlix paper, and recycled form letter paper.
I put a pinch of the iridescent flakes in each one.
The first sheet, I blended the pulp, then put a healthy pinch of flakes in and whirled for a second.
The second and third, I added a smaller pinch (less is more!) with the pulp. Of course, i got smaller flakes. They're in the press now; we'll see in a couple of days.
Research
I'm going to read about casting tonight, so I can try out the moulds. I really want to move on to casting bowls, but baby steps are best.
Also, I spent some time last night researching Native American symbols. Pictographs/Ideographs seem perfect for begiining to paint with pulp.
Other Ideas
• I found an empty "Thank You" card box that's perfect for handmade paper. I'm going to use it as a model to make a template. That way I can deliver my handmade notecards and envelopes in a handmade box to match. Because it's all about the pretty.
• I also found an old note tray, from the days when I dreamed about writing long, poetic love letters. It's a lucite tray that holds half sheets and envelopes, with a lucite press to keep the paper flat. I'm storing my handmade paper there now. Some of the linen note paper is in my recycle stack now, and the rest is ready for use in the laser and inkjet printers.
