Sketchbook 12, the last pages

The last pages from sketchbook 12.

All the backgrounds are watercolour, the top two have a wax resist too, probably made with a candle. I have used found images to collage.

this one has woven newspaper on the background

doodles drawn with black and white pens

wax crayon tree

the cat[s] tail hangs over the page edge. This one looks very crumpled, not glued very well at all.

Swans, Cygnets, Sketchbook Pages, Button Gift

Before my daughter and husband got the train back to London we went to Herrington Park and we saw lots of swans, a pair of them had baby cygnets. But it was really cold.......

When I got back home I opened a lovely packet of buttons which had come from a blogging friend - Sherry. Check out her blog, she is always creating lovely things.
