Using scraps - Garden Journal

I have boxes of bits; patterned papers, leftover backgrounds, discarded die-cuts, stamped images, snippets - in fact you name it I've probably got it - so whilst we are locked down in this Covid-19 pandemic I am aiming to use up some of those scraps in any of my numerous journals.


Today it's my garden journal with some rusty and shabby bits. Just a simple collage!


A rusty panel, crackled leftover, textured panel and very old leftover rulers with the beautiful TH dragonfly.


The words came from a pouch of collected bits and just fitted into the current climate.


Suddenly it was life changing times, but amongst it all there is hope for a better future.

Scrumptious rustiness against the rich earthiness of the kraft page, and the dragonfly hovering over all. What a great idea to start employing all those scraps and snippets in journal collages... looking forward to more.
