Altered envelope journal swap




In one of my art groups there is a journal swap going on. Each participant has to alter and embellish 6 half business size envelopes, they are the pages. Each of the pages has to have at least one insert with an inspirational word or quote. The pages themselves have to have three things on them: wings, text and number(s). It is to be a chunky journal, so lots of fibres and embellies. They are great fun to do.

Just got a whole lot of new stamps from a brilliant place called the Stamp Smith. This is the image that I first saw on Docraft and really liked. I asked the friend who has used it in an ATC, where she got it. Well she borrowed it from a friend who got it from ebay as a one off. But.... it had a title. I googled the title, and hey presto found the site. They have great stamps and offer a really friendly fast service. I highly recommend them!
