Another Stampotique Scrapling by Sarah ...

... although this one's not a mini book.  I trimmed this one in the end and think I'll add it to a journal page.  It looks like it'll work on a page using warm colours.  Head on over to my blog and let me know what you think!

I typed the phrase out on an old typewriter.  It came from inside a fortune cookie - we've never had fortune cookies from the chinese takeaway before but my phrase was quite apt for me!

PS Thanks to all those who let me know that they'd made scraplings before, it was great to visit your blogs and see them, and thanks also to those who let me know they'd never heard of them, it made me feel sooooooooo much better :)

I LoVe this image of 'Midge'  but was a bit worried that it would be hard to use differently to Dina Wakley whose work I love and who uses it so distinctively.

But I just worry too much!!  Playing around with an image, with your own collection of stamps and inks, means you end up using it in your own style!  After making a few tags recently I decide on an envelope as a base.  It may end up as a page in a newly created journal,

... or on a journal page!  I quite like it with all that white background :)
