Scrap Art - Artful Times


This really is scrap art!!!  This is a tag that I've used to 'mop up' with!! From memory it has fresco and eco friendly paints, distress stains and inks.


I had some snowflake fresco paint which needed using up so I sponged it through the stencil and outlined it with black posca pen as it got lost in the background!!!  I stamped some script into the blank spaces with black stazon and white versamagic.


I also made a postcard from a few scraps of fabric, some of which I had coloured.  

See what you can come up with using your scraps and pop along to the Artful Times blog to link up your entry.
