A NoTe ABouT SuPpliEs I bring plenty of images, ephemera & small found objects for everyone to use. However, I believe that it is important to have some materials to work with that you are familiar with & comfortable using. Therefore, I ask that you bring some images & ephemera that you love to work with. Also, we usually end up having a community pile for everyone to use, so please bring extras to share. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at lklight@copper.net .
