It Began A Few Days Ago
These four bags full of scraps were dumped on the floor ...
bits and pieces found their way onto this surface ...
and got pinned down ...

I'm constantly amazed how you create order from this, and recognizable subjects!
This looks so interesting.
Do you have something like stabilizer between the scraps and the pins? I thought I had a lot of scraps but you definitely have me beat in that department! I love how you use them.
Joyce,
Tulle is laid on top of the scrap layer to contain them as well as to keep those tiny pieces where I intend them to be ... more or less. There's a strong element of serendipity to my "ortwork" technique.
Hi Nellie,
I like your style... aren't scraps fun...especially what you can do with them....
Have a great day
xoxo
((((hugs))))
