Artist Trading Blocks

Hello Beautiful People...

So in between design team projects...OH WAIT...so...not only am I on the Art Anthology Inc. Dream Team, but I was invited to start creating with the awesome team of artists over at Gauche Alchemy...

Very excited to see where this new adventure with them leads and share it all with you...

Ok...so...while not working on design team projects and a couple of special projects (stay tuned)...I have been making Artist Trading Blocks..

Last summer I took the amazing class Imaginarium, Anthology of an Art Doll taught by the amazing Mary Jane Chadbourn...As part of the kits she offered up for class participants, she included a few Artist Trading Blocks...same size as Artist Trading Cards, but in the form of a 1/2 inch block of wood...

I have been having so much fun with them...until...BLASTED...my printer ran out of ink...so I am waiting for my ink to get here so I can start printing images and making more of these fun projects...but let me show you the 3 I did make...the first one was part of a swap we did within the facebook group from the original class...the other 2 I ended up selling before they were even finished which is awesome...and there will be more to come...so here they are...































































I'm having so much fun making these blocks...can't wait to get some more made.

Have a fantastic Friday and a great weekend...

  2. Monica, I found out about you this weekend at the Anaheim scrapbooking convention. stay r DeWid at ART ANTHOLOGY told me about you when I was admiring your Art Work. I live in Jonesboro, Arkansas. I would love to either take a workshop from you or invite you to our town. Thank you for sharing.
