I've never done one of these before and I'm excited for it. So if I got really attached to one word I could use the same word in all 12 inchies? Since each one will go to a different person? Is it okay if there is some dimension to them?
ReplyDeleteUsing the same word is just fine! And yes, dimension is fabulous! Thanks Jill!!!
DeleteI'm in Canada - And I'm a keen and crazy altered art gal - Can I get in on this? WOuld provide additional $$ to cover needed postage.
ReplyDeleteMary
That would be fine Mary - perhaps you could allow for the postal delay and get them to me sooner than the 15th? That would be great!
DeleteSounds like fun. I miss being able to mail things properly. The postal system in this country is renowned for being very slow and for losing things.
ReplyDeleteThat's too bad!! 😯
DeleteLooking forward to this!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you can play!!
DeleteThese are so cool.! What a fun swap! xox
ReplyDeleteHey Kim! I was just telling someone how much I missed you and your art. I would love to play! I am fasting from FB for awhile but I still have the messenger app so I will message you later.
ReplyDeleteGrace!
