I was randomly blog-surfing & came across your fun site!
Your artwork brought a smile to my face.
Thank you!
I remember when they used to make elaborate costumes out of crepe paper (when it could be sewqn on the machine!) and I also recall seeing similar photos of ladies obviously at a party, dresssed in their *newspapery* finest!
Sadly, whateverr papers I get go right into the birds cages.....
I guess I'll just comment and be a party pooper!
Wow....How fun...I will try and participate...Sounds like a hoot...
Smiles,

This is wonderful, Peggy. I will definitely be thinking about this & promise to try to participate! Ricë has another book . . .
