Sometimes it's fun to just see how these project develop. Today's Daily Paper Prompt was Leftovers and the suggestions was to use the paper you use to protect your work surface to create something. I just cleaned up my room recently so I was afraid I wouldn't have anything good to work with, but lo and behold I actually had a good "leftover" I took it outside and photographed it whole thinking that I might do something digitally with it. I open the file in photoshop and look at different croppings but nothing was really doing anything for me.
Then, I remember my cards that I threw away yesterday while trying to create the certification card. I figured I could cut those up in some way to incorporate them into today's project. Sure enough I started framing out the paper and then laying strips down and before I knew it I was well on my way. After I glued down my strips I rubbed over them with white paint to tone down the brightness, the outline with black sharpie. After scattering a few more torn pieces of the cards on and outlining them I called it done. I enjoyed the process of turning nothing into something and I happy with how it looks.
