thanks. i needed to see this today.

that's what i love about the blogging community. this past year has been one of my most difficult, but one of the things that has helped and lifted me the most is blogs and bloggers. and like this post reminds me, they were always underneath me for support.

lovely detail shots of your creative work. i love the birds in the branches scrap. that would make a lovely wallpaper.

Isn't collage just such a lovely metaphor for creating a life from all the bits and pieces of experience? And don't we all want to be held, lovingly, in high regard? You rock.
