AJ WK49 Time Flies & TMTA- Mosaic

Art Journal wk 49, time flies! Well this year has gone in a blur for me. I just don't know where it went but looking at my computer & seeing all the artwork in my photo folders, at least I know I spent the time wisely & creatively! The card is a scrap of DCWV Once upon a time paper. I tore a calendar page from an old diary, & glued it onto the page. I love time & images related to it, so this gave me the chance to lightly ink up two of my fav clock stamps & apply them to the card. I also use one of the time quotes from the stamp set. They are from The Artistic stamper I have a link in the sidebar. I used mini clocks that I printed on transparency for my CJ. These were left over & I attached them with brads.

For TMTA Mosaics, I decided to use my mini patterned squares stamp, CI-178. It is fab for cutting up & using small sections. I stamped them in Versamagic eggplant. Selected 6 & glued them to lilac shimmer card. I then glued this to white card & finally onto navy. I added this buterfly lady from my printed ephemera collection & coloured her in with inks.
Thankfully new ink cartridges arrived today & Im going to make sure I print off the stuff I know I'll need next time I'm out of ink!!

I'm thinking it might be going into spam as well. Wed Stamper always seem really good at putting them on for you. I think blogger is just overworked and ready for a rest over Xmas
