This swap is a great way to experiment with different pain materials like inks, stamping with acrylics, and stippling, etc. Go wild and get messy!

Should they be on copy weight paper, cardstock, or what?

I just mailed out my swap packages - please be patient if you don't get them before feedback starts - sometimes my parcels seem to take a detour :/

Hi, Kathy C, glad you liked my papers. I really enjoyed making them. This was my first experience at making hand-painted papers, so wasn't quite sure what was expected. I kind of experimented with some different things. Nathalie

I have received all my papers now, I have put photos in the gallery (and in the Flickr group) of the papers I have received from Sherry, Corinne and Roberta.
