SPRING SCRAP AND SERENDIPITY

I have wasted a lot of time today first of all creating another video of my pieces of art and uploading to Youtube and Facebook . I then discovered it was really simple to upload to a blog so that is why I have inflicted both videos on anyone who reads this . We have a new journal prompt on milliande SPRING and I rushed to put on my Bird page which has been seen before and another page using tissue and stamps.The latter was really just me experimenting with some of my new rubber stamps so it was a bit messy.
This afternoon I created another page using one of my favourite methods of using up scraps of paper.And it goes like this.
Take a sheet of card

Then paste on various scraps of paper ,fabric etc today I kept to tonal colours.

SCRAP PAPER BOX

GREEN SCRAPS INCLUDING EMBOSSED RIBBON


ORANGE 



SHADES OF BLUE


PINK PAGE USING SCRAPS LEFT FROM A SIZZIX DIE CUT
When this is done  you can cut out shapes I used my Sizzix Big Shot  to cut out flowers and leaves but I often use this method for ATC blanks.










I then painted the page with acrylics and doodled with sharpies and Pitt pens.

I then arranged the die cuts


I just finished the page with Pitt pens .

  1. I have been messing round with paint and paper today too very randomly without thinking. I used to like the old Quo with Alan Lancaster & Rik Coghlan now I think they sound like Chas & dave so no wonder you came home early!!
