postcard swap

Let me give you the break down of the swap:

My

Altered Book 

art project

 I decided to have printed onto 

41/2 x 6 1/2 

postcard size prints.

These printed postcards were delivered by a due date.

In return, I received some pretty, incredible postcards

 created by

other fantastic, creative, people!

Inspiring... right?

We got to ride our one of Washington's newest

ferry boats, just recently built.

And... away we went!

Clear skies and blue sea, what a beautiful day.

Port Townsend, WA.

Such a beautiful old town.

hand-made paper!

Stopped by the for a milk-shake...

fantastic!

Look at these purses!

I could see myself will one on these...

very "artsy".

I thought these two sculptures were 

interesting, creative, and adorable.

Love all these old buildings.

Spent a wonderful day at 

PORT TOWNSEND 

Happy Thursday!
