I'm really getting into this Altered Art.  I just love creating.  Check out my Altered Art Collection of Photo's.  I will be adding more as time passes.  Also, check out most of it at my Altered B.Log Social Network.

If you enjoy swaps.  You should also take a look at my events on the Network.  I have listed all of the Swaps, that I've created over at Swap-Bot.com. 

I have 2 groups there -

 Rolling The Bead Group this is a group for those of us that love rolling our own beads. 
The Craft Fairers Group - for those of us that make jewelry and want to swap our jewelry or jewelry and beading  items.

I am a Co-Founder at the Jazzy Jewelry & Beading Group - we just cleaned it up and are desperately seeking members for swapping our stuff.

If you are a swapper over at Swap-Bot.com, check out a network that was created just for Swap-Bot Swappers

In the pictures to the left, the first picture is that of my first try at making Inchies (1x1 square).  Its entitled "Frog Wishes". I used the 1x1 square and covered it in fabric.  I added embellishments, punched a hole and added a clip hanger, so instant zipper pull.

The second picture is my entries in the ATC Contest over at Gone Beadin' Network.  These are entitled "I'll Fly Away - Butterflies I &  II".

The third picture is a set of practice inchies to prepare for a swap that I'd signed up for.  I added magnets and embellishments to make this set interesting.

The 4th picture is an altered matchbox (32ct).  This is my favorite altered art form.  This is one I decided not to swap.  It is entitled "Sunny Flowers".  It was originally started to be a part of a Matchbox Purse Swap and I loved it so much, I decided not to put the handle on and keep it.  So it is one of my Keepers.

The 5th and last picture was made for a swap.  A 6pc Inchies Picture Puzzle Set.  Put them all together and they show this beautiful picture of a lily.  Very very nice.
