¨     This piece was made to fit into a Dina Wakely denim journal and placed onto a cream hessian page.

¨     Off-cuts from both coloured and black and white cut-out sheets were collected and sorted for composition of the elements.

An off-cut strip from the Bee to a flower  12x12 scrapbook paper  a pink mix of texture paste was spread through the Flower garden A4 stencil.

¨     Use an off-cut from the Pretty fields 12x12 scrapbook paper is cut to fit the journal page.
