Paper Collage Box Swap

This wonderful little box contains all sorts of fun little bits and pieces. It is a treasure trove for the collage artist. This little box started out in Germany, and has wandered along through the UK, France, The Netherlands, Poland and the USA so far. It has a few more stops before it returns home to Lawendula , the lovely lady who started this fun collage swap.  Lewendula comes up with some of the most fun paper swaps. I'll post what I make using the bits I took from the box.

January's Paper Swap


I was involved in the Paper Swap hosted by a lovely blogger by the name of Lewendula of Woven Letters. She hosts a different type of paper swap every month. February's swap is up now for sign ups. Hop on over if you want to join in the fun. It is an international swap, which makes it even more fun.  This month I had the honor of swapping with a very generous and lovely lady by the name of Sylvia of Studio Sylvia. She lives in Australia. She sent a parcel that was like Christmas. Look at all of these goodies! It was a Card swap and she tossed in specially made papers from Germany that she embellished with some wonderful sparkly colors and stamps, etc.

These are so pretty with the antiquing she did, the torn edges, the stamping and decorated envelopes.

These are the mini cards she included. I love the reds and the flowers. So sweet. 

Look at the watercolors and the stamping and the glittery sheen. It is hard to see that part, but trust me in person it is wonderful. Thank you again, Sylvia! Sylvia has an etsy shop where she offers her papers & jewelry. Visit her blog to see what she is up to.

Paper Swap Tags


These tags were sent to me by Eliza.My very favorite is the three little girls.  I was involved in a Paper swap hosted by Lawendula of Woven Letters and partnered with a lovely lady from Poland. Her name is Eliza and she has a very creative blog called druga szenascie 2:I6. Her blog is always full of art and wonderful quotes. You should check it out.

These last three are three of the tags I sent to Eliza.
