Painted Note Book Covers

Always finding ways to reuse the painted paper that i sometimes use as a paint palette, & the leftover paint.

 then what to do with all these colourful creations? 

some of them go straight to a stack of painted paper for future collages.

 but as i have been trying to cut down on keeping too much stuff & becoming overwhelmed with too many projects & ideas i have decided to only keep the bits i really like & know i will use.

 these two i used to cover some notebooks for the office.

in the photo at the top i have collaged & printed various pieces of paper. i used a brown paper bag,    a window envelope & tissue paper.

 plastic mesh & bottle tops for the printed shapes & lines.

 the pink one was made using  leftover paint which i just pressed onto a piece of paper & then pulled it down the page......... looks like a bird to me. (raylee).
