Scraps of time

I've another spread to share with Halle at Halle's Hobbies, our host this month at Art Journal Journey.  Her theme is A Stitch in Time. 

I created this in my Scraps altered book because it is made entirely of scraps.

Sewn scraps,

spritzed scraps, paint chip scraps,

and magazine scraps.

I began by laying down the second layer of a three layer napkin/serviette.  As I've noted before, on occasion, some napkins' colors and designs are so strong, they bleed or transfer to the second layer of a napkin.  That was the case for this one I used as my background.

I used five paint chip samples left over from other projects and sewed them in place.  The two flowers in the left spread were from a magazine poster of flowers that attract bees and butterflies.

For the right side, I angled one of the house shaped paint chips and turned it into an arrow.  I had a piece of leftover card stock I had spritzed, then brushed with two of my handmade shimmering mists.  I then sewed the clock I found in a magazine to the card stock.  All pieces were sewn together using variegated thread.

Thanks so very much for joining me today, and I hope to also see you at Art Journal Journey.
