Squawk meets the tattered floral monster!
Feeling a bit low I thought I'd cheer myself up by just playing with inks and stencils to make some papers to use in my journals. Of course there were a few mop up papers! After cutting out some tattered flowers with the garland die there was a piece of paper that I just had to use along with Lindsay Mason's 'Squawk' from her Doo Lally Pip range.I stamped over the kitchen roll with a Lavinia stamps thistle head and added eyes.'Squawk' was stamped onto a piece of the paper I'd made. Hope it makes you smile....
The background had been started a while ago so I just added a few dots through stencil some with ink and some with ferro gold. Couldn't resist doodling in some spiky flowers!
I have lots of mop up paper so maybe it's time for another monster!!
I certainly have some lined up for flowers!

Thanks for looking, Chris

LOL What a wonderful piece of work :)
Have to agree, that's wonderful Chris...love that you re-use the mop up paper - just started using towel roll so now I have some idea.
Great use of the paper and I hope it cheered you up again this time. It made me smile
Love Chrissie xx
Squawk made me smile. You certainly make great use of your mop up papers. Glad you brought this post to the top.

Since I'm relatively new to your blog, I thoroughly enjoyed meeting Squawk. And I love how you use kitchen (or as we in America call them, paper) towels as mop up rags. They make excellent ones, that's for sure.
Thanks for sharing your second look on the 2nd this month, dear friend.
Fabulous Chris, love how you used your mop up bits! hugs :)
Mop up paper is a great term and you have used yours to create something so unique and colorful Chris!
Thanks for the fun second look which for me was a first :-)
