Well, this is part of the reason. Also, I've been madly making cards!
Since I last blogged, I've made 612 cards. Do I tire of it? I still can't wait to get back to my desk to get back to cutting and pasting and rummaging through papers and fabrics.
Something I wrote down a few months ago:
"What do you do when you have a piece of material that you think is ugly? What do you do with a piece of paper that has scribbles or rips on it? What do you do with something that is cheap or old?"
This is the game I play with myself when making cards - how do I make these things part of the composition? And manipulate my eyes to make something I want to throw away, into part of something I want to share?
