Sweet

 

Bleubeard and I are back with another entry for our recycle, reuse, repurpose theme we are hosting this month at Art Journal Journey.

Sometimes we have to sacrifice for the good of art.  That's the case here.  

In fact, here are the detail shots:

I washed the plastic-like wrapper and cut the piece I wanted for this spread.

This image came from an old calendar. 

I rotated the word (so you didn't have to turn your head sideways) I wrote from excess background scrapbook paper.

After washing the wrapper to a York mint patty, I added it to my spread.

Everything except the scrapbook paper background (which I was given) and the ink used for the sentiment was recycled.

Thanks for joining Bleubeard and me today.  He is a bit upset because there was no kibble, but he know his kibble comes in large bags, and wouldn't make a great background.  

We hope you enjoyed what we recycled today and we are glad you are here to cheer us on.  We also hope to see you at Art Journal Journey with your own interpretation of recycle, reuse, repurpose.

  2. Whilst visiting I have a pickled egg and a sloce of bread with truffle butter and tilsit cheese - quite a contrast to your sweet piece!
    But at least I joined you with the ocean.

  3. You're making me hungry this morning. Smile. This is a fun page. Sweet is a fun theme for your challenge, and it's a nice way to recycle the York Peppermint Patty wrapper. Hope your week is going well. I have some pages starting tomorrow; sorry I haven't posted anything since Saturday. hugs-Erika

  4. York Peppermint Patties are just about my favorite candy. I order huge bags of the minis from amazon.com and devour them. I like the little ones because they have slightly more chocolate.

    ENJOY your candy!

  11. I think you would have some volunteers to help empty those wrappers for you! Sounds as if Bleubeard was quite attentive to the proceedings, too.
