WORD JOURNAL- ALTERED BOOK

I don't think I've made any additions to this book in probably a year, but for whatever reason, I made an addition today.  The word I chose to illustrate is:

SWATCH

Fabric swatches are remnants from my neighbor's quilts.  They provide a lot of color to the pages.  I've also added some buttons and the little metal scissors on the right-hand page actually open and close!  There's also some acrylic paint and rubber stamps.  There is something to be said for taking a class now and then because it can spark your creativity and I guess I was still in that mode after last night's class.  Back to work tomorrow.....creativity on hold....

See the scissors...
