Heartbreaking for those who have lost their homes and posessions. How do communities get back from devastation on such measures...these freaky environmental disasters seem to be increasing at a scary rate, and what real help is there at ground level? <br />Sorry to ramble on so - I'm following you now so I'll be back to check out your arty stuff!

We do get to see a fair bit on our TV coverage, as we should. I have my fingers crossed as my cousin lives in the area, and we have not heard from him.<br /><br />Going back to the 3 times rule, I do not bin things unless they have been on the mantlepiece and then changed at least 6 times, and maybe not then. Failed cards I take apart and remake in a different format. Backgrounds can always go darker, and then have mica powder burnished on the top. I am too stingy to throw anything away. It may not fit what you want now, but it could be just what you want for a project next week.MaggieC (Silvercrafter)https://www.blogger.com/profile/13560733295194874288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6811607250021814181.post-68089503922692132302011-01-14T02:20:53.164+11:002011-01-14T02:20:53.164+11:00The floods have been so devastating, not to mentio...The floods have been so devastating, not to mention lethal and truly terrifying.
