In reply to Susie Weaver. The paper that I use is mostly acid-free sketching/drawing paper of 120 g/m2 (56 lbs).

This blog post looks like so much fun! One question though: what weight of paper are your “paper scraps”?

The many headed doll was a delight. For some reason my mind went to one of those plastic birds that sit on a desk and dip their beaks into a cup of water over and over and over. It has something to do with air pressure I think, as they have some colored water inside the clear bird. Anyway, yours reminded me of that but with a twist as yours has a special drink with a straw and all dressed up for some exciting party with his drink ready for fun.He even has a big smile on his face with both eyes looking back at me which made me laugh.

Paivi: Your weekly blog is always inspiring to me! One of your blogs motivated me to take Collageland which was so inspiring that I started an art journal just for collages. They are so much fun.
Now I have to grab my colored pencils and decorate some of the left over scraps. Thank you so much!
