i did it again. joined a swap that was so outside my comfort zone. and after i got over the initial drama of dreading it, i actually loved it. one of my favorite swaps, i dare say, ever!! it was a one on one swap, so we got a name of the person we were going to send our project to. the thing we had to do was make a tiny book. there were only a few rules. one-had to be tiny. less than 3 inches. two-had to have six pages. three-had to have stamping on it somewhere. seemed easy enough. right? no way. i thought about it forever! (ok, not forever, but a while...) and i finally quit thinking so much and just started making it. then it just sort of ended up being finished. and i think it turned out pretty good. i love the colors. and i have a good idea that the recipient (who i can't say yet!) will love it, too. at least i hope she will.
