Still Chasing Paper…
EDIT: The Paper Chase project has now closed.
I am absolutely floored by the response I’ve had to The Paper Chase. I’ve already received 6 packages – 5 of them arriving super-fast from the US.
This project means so much to me, not just because I love paper (& I do love paper!), but because it’s enabling me to make contact with so many amazing artists & art-lovers, & I’m just so touched by people’s generosity & kindness. This is going to sound ultra-corny, but I really feel connected in the warmest, fuzziest way through this exchange – this is what art’s all about. A big thank you to everyone participating in The Paper Chase!
As you can see, I’ve posted tantalising shots of the packages I’ve received so far. I’ve made an extra-special photo gallery just for The Paper Chase where I’m uploading pics of the bundles as they arrive, as well as the finished collages I make to send back.
These parcels of paper pleasure were sent by Mandy in NSW, Peaseblossom Studio, Smoobage, High Desert Diva, Rosa Murillo & Shaving Kit. Thank you!
Look at all that fab ephemera!
Glad to see my package arrived…can’t wait to see what you come up with!
Yay, happy to see my package arrived. Happy crafting! I am looking forward to seeing the results. :-)
I’ll be happy when my package has arrived–waiting is the hard part! Feel free to edit out whatever doesn’t appeal. Thought I had variety but jeepers–you’re getting varied and wonderful stuff that just amazes!
Yay! Have lots of fun.
It made it! I am so so happy for this response you’re getting, and really, it makes us feel all connected and fuzzy-warm inside too! Can’t wait to see what you create!
I’ll be shipping my package off to you by Wednesday!
What a beautiful blog, a real advert for your creativity. The paper chase is a fantastic idea, I shall look around my house later (I can call it tidying!)
drool drool, lucky you! paper heaven. totally fab idea.
Wow, what a gorgeous collection you’re acquiring! I’m so happy for you!
I love your little Paper Chase Gallery, and on a side note…what you did with that font (image filled) will haunt me for days. Must learn how to do that.
Thanks for getting this started, I can tell we’re all enjoying being a part of it!
What a great idea! I’m afraid all of my papers are brand spanking new…
What a fun project! I’d love to participate so I’ll start hunting for a fun collection of paper!
It’s in the post, finally =).
You have gotten some really great mail!
