i'm a lucky lady

My weeknights are often a wasteland from art - I'm tired from work and lazy.  So I look forward to the weekends and this weekend especially.  I'm going to revel in collage making.  I'm a little behind in my goal of 365 and I'm excited to play catch up this weekend.  

My buddies Karen and Lorinda are also working on 365 projects and we decided to swap some papers for fresh inspiration.  OMG - I really can hardly wait.  Each lady included some of their own hand decorated papers, bits of ephemera, colorful pieces that I can't wait to play with.  Next week I'll show you what I come up with using this:

This is exciting, isn't it?  Thanks so much ladies for all the inspiration.
