I haven't participated in a chunky book swap for ages. I love the 4" x 4" size, and always love to see what everyone does with the same theme and/or colour scheme. The ARTchix Studio Sister Site Yahoo Group is having a fun chunky swap based on colours. Each month we mail off 3 pages and get 3 back, and each month is based on a different colour combination. This month is based on Pink and Orange - who could resist? I made all of mine the same(ish), so I'm only showing one, front and back. I also made one to keep, which is fun. This is a low pressure swap compared to those huge chunky projects that were so popular a few years ago! If you're a fan of ARTchix Studio, you are welcome to join the group and join in the fun! All images (except butterfly) are from ARTchix!
Here's the front. In person, the "wheels" are stamped with hot pink paint! I have no idea why they look yellow - maybe it's reflective? Those "wheels" are stamped with a circle of plastic needlepoint canvas that I picked up from Ruby Dog's Art House in Vancouver last weekend. If you're ever in Vancouver, don't forget to stop by - Leann has the coolest stuff!
And here's the back:
I have always loved the butterfly on the eyes that you do. Wish I was participating in the fatbook swap, but I have other commitments right now. Maybe later. I really love all the details that you have with these.

Nice print from the plastic needlepoint canvas.
We should plan a trip to Ruby Dog's when the weather gets nicer!
