mixed media artists...yahoo group, fabric journal swap

i've recently joined a yahoo group, mixed media artists. such a variety of swaps going on right now...charms & advents & tp tags. i signed up for the paris theme fabric journal swap. the guidelines are to create a tag with paris theme including a dress form. also with that is a 14 X 9 piece of upholstery fabric and a 9 1/2 length of lace. there are 15 players and when we have all swapped, we will each create a fabric journal of our own...woohoo! my first swap was sent to claudine. i have followed her blog for a while now and swapped with her several times and she is truly an inspiration to me. SO, when i created her stuff, i added extras to give her options, kinda mix n match...
