I LOVE working like this.. just grabbing whichever colour comes to hand next and adding it in.. I end up putting colours together that I just wouldn't of done otherwise. It's an exhilarating way to work!

One can see that it was quite a stash to begin with .... ;-)
It does build up Els :) I have a wire waste paper bin (my 'compost bin') behind the door and all scraps go in till it's full x
You won't have to wait long Ali :) That's in the next post x
