Music Is You Journal.

It's home!!  Thank you all.  All you wonderful artists who added their contributions, I thank you from the bottom of my heart.  I really did not expect this and I feel very overwhelmed.  I made a little video, never done it before :)  Maybe if it doesn't work very well I will post photos like a proper blogger.  Once again thank you all and blessings to you.

New Members for the next round of The Australian Art Journal Swap

What a fabulous journey we have shared as our art journals made their way around our big and beautiful Australia, whilst our journals have been collecting beautiful artworks for us to treasure, we have made some lovely new friends and learnt so much along the way.

As this round is drawing to a close keep an eye on the blog as their owners share their experience and their newly returned journals and we will get to peek into them.I can't wait to see my journal again, filled with it's beautiful works. 

I am also looking for new members to join the next round of the The Australian Art Journal Swap and would love to hear from you if you would like to join us. All participants need to reside in Australia and be committed to following through with the entire swap, You will need to collect and look after the visiting journals, add you work on the theme of the journal and send it on to the next person in the chain. Postage is between $7 - $16 and you send out every month or so. We need you to be good at communicating and keeping in touch - You will need a facebook page and be willing to blog your work and I am happy to help you get started with all the computer aspects if they are new to you.

Please come and join our Australian Art Swap Group on facebook
not only is is a great place to connect for this swap
but we are always doing other art swaps and challenges as well.
We are always looking for new artists to join in.

Jan completes the circle in Roz's Oriental Journal

This was a very inspiring journal and was a pleasure to work in.
I hope I have done it justice.
I used stamps and watercolours and collages on some napkins and Japanese Origami papers.

And spurred on by the activity on our Facebook page I made a few wings dedicated ATC's for Roz.

I hope you love it Roz.
