Friday my birthday gift from Ornery arrived in the form of new colors of silks, twinks and primary elements artist pigment powders. Oh, glorious day!! :) My birthday isn't until next week, but we celebrate from the beginning of the month... :)
Also in the mail was my order from Stampin' Up. They offered in their clearance section some 8X8 albums for $5.99. They are 3 D-ring binders and came with 10 sheet protector/pages inside. I had been planning to make a stencil binder for storing my 6X6 stencils in, but I am sure I couldn't make one for $5.99, so I ordered two. I only needed one binder for stencils, but both sets of pages. I am going to use the other for a Mail Art Junk Journal.
Saturday I worked on my own art journal for a round robin swap with two pen friends. Here is one of the pages--I apparently forgot to photograph the other one!
Sunday I broke out the Gelli-plate for another session. I created 35 beautiful monoprints! :)
Next, I put together some altered file folders and a couple of post cards. One folder is for a swap, the other is for my new Mail Art Junk Journal. Here is a pile of completed projects from Sunday.
And here is a photo of the outgoing mail for Monday. I put together some surprise Valentine's presents for a couple of my nephew's kids and my two grands. The other items are my journal and a couple of swaps, plus the post card going to an Instagram friend.
Here is my folder front and back.
and here is the folder I made for the swap, front and back. Note the stitching. It happened here. Really.

Your altered art is Da Bomb. You would do really well on facebook with these things.
