REMNANTS

Gelliart background, old postage stamps

tree cut out of old book 

To post or not to post....that is the question I asked myself about this page.  Using torn pieces from some of my Gelliarts prints on deli paper, glued them to the page.  There comes a time when you ask yourself....what do I do with all of these remnants of paper...especially when you like them.  The pieces get smaller.  This art is where they landed.  I had a bag of old postage stamps my sister gave me at Christmas (we exchange interesting things!) and so I added some of them as well.  The tree was something I've used as a stencil and rather then put it away somewhere where I probably wouldn't find it again...you know how that goes...I just glued it right on top.  I wrote inside the tree.."There is no rhyme or reason for these pages, they just exist.  Joy in Creation.

The opposite page...

The right side has more of the Gelliart, more stamps from Bermuda and Ceylon and a movie theater ticket from The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel...which takes place in India.  That is a great movie so after I finished these pages, I took out my dvd and watched it....for the 3rd or 4th time!
