Knowledge is Key


Here's my next postcard for The Craft Barn's Quotes and Lyrics Challenge where this time the words to use are KNOWLEDGE and/or HURT.

Lots of songs to choose from but in the end I've chosen this quote by Bertrand Russell. My mind is full of useless information but I do enjoy quizzes so that makes me happy!!


The background is a mix of Shaded Lilac and Dusty Concord Distress spritzed with water and I've used various stamps from PSX, Tim Holtz, Hero Arts etc to represent typical subjects you get quizzed about - art. geography, history, nature, words, numbers, music etc.  

Thanks for popping by and for any comments you leave,  I'm off to see what others have chosen to do!!

    I've never found knowledge useless, but there is definitely humor in this quote. I loved all the examples you used to show your useless knowledge (grin).

    The colours youused are lovely and the images are random enough to be interesting. I always like to hear s-called 'useless' information, it generally comes with an intersting story behind it I find. :o)

    Another great postcard, love the use of the stamps to depict the quote. Useless knowledge is a wonderful thing, you never know when it may come in handy!
