Layered Collage Mandala

The other day I was talking about Clean Up Collages, by which I mean quite random assemblies of paper scraps, tickets, and trading stamps left on my worktable at the end of a project, that I glue together instead of putting away. Occasionally, this process results in an actual finished piece that I love... (Saturday's was one such) ...but often it's more valuable as a process than an outcome. So what do I do then? I diecut the pieces and use them for something else! In this case, the heart-shaped petals surrounding the central frame are from two different Clean Up Collage panels that I didn't love on their own; but they work really well (in my opinion) in this orange, yellow, green and neutral creation, so I'm calling it a win!

I hope your Monday isn't too Mondayish, lol; and that your week in general is off to a good start.
