Description:

aka Art Material Swap - By now you've probably got some themed swaps going or an art project in mind or just want to add materials to your studio. This swap is to increase some specific needs you might have (butterflies, gnomes, vintage images, flowers, angels, insects, etc.). In the comment section below, list exactly what you are looking for. Also, be sure to read your partner's profile. You will have a full month to collect the desired items.

Include a previously read (but not cut up) magazine on art, architecture, regional information, travel or paper art. You know, the kind with fun images or interesting articles centered around the arts. It does not matter how old the magazine is.

Keep your collection to an 8x10 envelope. International swappers welcome. Seasoned swappers preferred, 4.7 or higher. No newbies, please.

Looking for images of mermaids, tropical fish and anything Asian: magazine picts, brochures, postcards, playing cards, paper, puzzle pieces. Would love some handmade (by you) paper. Does not need to be from pulp!

In particular looking for: * bats/vampires * robots/spaceships * retro-kitchen images (coffee, tea, cooking...) * black & white line Victorian-style drawings (think "Gibson Girl") * quirky faces I can use for Zettiology

I have a fondness for copies of "Reminisce" magazine (some good vintage-y stuff in there.) And any old magazines that include pictures of "art". I'm looking for images I can use when making ATCs and collage.

Make me happy with anything * tea-themed ( teabags, teapots, teacups) Tea catalogs are great too.

Happiness also comes from * sunflowers, * crows, * tabby cats, * wild grasses, * opera, * birds, * vintage Japanese watercolors and woodblock prints, * vintage botanical prints, * old textile images

Magazine images are fine, but things from teh above themes on postcards, stickers, embellishments, small printed images, rubber stamped images, shrink art, pieces of greeting cards, interesting papers, would really make my day.

I would LOVE some fabric. i do patchwork and quilts, among other things. Cotton is best, but if you find something else you love send it- i will find a use for it. Would LOVE LOVE LOVE any fabric with: ants, batik, stars moons, ALICE IN WONDERLAND... (or inspired... want to make a quilt.. so white rabbit, small playing card patterns, pink flamingos, etc) Piano fabric, Paisleys, Bats, pink, oriental or imported fabric that is cotton. Anything fun or funky.

Also: if not fabric, than anything related to the above. Anything dave matthews inspired.
basically look at my profile and go from there... surprise me!

Just wanted to add a little note here -- I am working on an altered book that is titled "Dark Hearts and Winged Things". So, any darkly romantic pictures & hearts are good for me, too. Pegasus, birds...and extra points if you can find me a great (non-hokey) picture of a flying monkey from the Wizard of Oz.

Does anyone have crepe paper in their stash? I need to make some paper flowers and that's a material that is recommended and that feels like a throw back. Also would love to know an easy way to make paper flowers....need a couple or serious bouquets soon.
