My
Altered Book 
art project

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!

Ferry Ride


Coupeville to Port Townsend, WA.


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!
