Pondering...

Another cut paper person! This lady looks like she's pondering some significant issue. I really never know how each one will turn out, but each starts with a pencil drawing, usually inspired by a magazine or newspaper photo, but not directly copied. The paper I use is usually scrapbooking paper from an art or craft store. I know my blog is about fabric, so I'm thinking that paper is made from fiber - in any case, I'm enjoying playing with paper lately!!
Today was a gorgeous day here in New England - bright, sunny, a bit chilly, but very uplifting. 
My poetic friend, Elaine, commented yesterday that "the maple trees are putting on their green lace gowns." I think about that every time I sit on my porch and look out at the trees. So beautiful.
