"This is true happiness: to have no ambition and to work like a horse as if you had every ambition. To live far from men, not to need them and yet to love them. To have the stars above, the land to your left and the sea to your right and to realize of a sudden that in your heart, life has accomplished its final miracle: it has become a fairy tale."
— Nikos Kazantzakis

You all rock.
THE FINE PRINT: When I made the mosaics, I tended to include cards that are horizontal rather than vertical and those cropped close rather than from a distance because of the way the mosaic-maker crops photos. I could not include your if your flickr settings are such that Big Huge Labs cannot display your images, or they are marked private.

This post is amazing! How wonderfully divergent and exciting all these cards are. We should make a book... :-)

Thank you for creating these beautiful mosaics! It is a thrill for me to see my cards mixed with all the other lovelies - and to be on daisy yellow is very cool!
Wow, there is some amazing work out there - I really must get out and go index card hunting! I didn't twig that cards should go onto flickr - I've just been posting to the old blog.. will have to check out the links between the two! Loving all of the mosaics, they look stunning presented that way!!
WOW - You used 5 of my cards, thank you for posting, I've linked my blog to this, hope that's OK. I'm really loving this challenge :)
