Liberate Your Art 2018



This is my 8th year of LYA postcard swap.  It is always exciting to receive pieces of art in the mailbox this time of year, thanks to everyone who participated and especially to Kat for hosting this amazing event.  Above are my three designs I sent out this year, these angels were part of an online class I took called wings of hope and were made with National Geographic magazine papers dissolved with CitraSolve cleaner and degreaser.
Below are the five postcards from the main swap.

Postcard #1 is fom Johna Elliott from almost famous studios in Helena Montana.  It found a perfect home... I love flowers!


Postcard #2 is a beautiful sea/water inspired zen doodle from Peggy Catherine Cheate.  She writes keep doing what is in front of you with all your heart and with love and what is meant for you will find you.    Beautiful right?


Postcard #3 "King for a Day", is a stunning piece of art by Jennifer Lommers from Corvallis Oregon. Jennifer writes, "may each Raven you encounter bring you great luck and fortune!",  I will be keeping this little bird close by for luck!  Thank you Jennifer, your art is amazing.



 Postcard #4, Blue Rabbit: Wild and Free by Lisa Murphy Art.  Another stunning piece of artwork.  I have admired her work since I first saw it a few years ago on a LYA swap and am thrilled to finally get one of her cards.  Thanks for sharing Lisa.     


And finally Postcard #5.  This beauty comes from Nick Hodgson in England.  Nick says he enjoys traveling and making new friends all around the world but especially loves to come home to this beautiful part of England.  I would love to visit one day, thanks Nick for sharing your beautiful country with me!


Now I am looking forward to Kat's postcard, it should be here soon!  And also looking forward to all the side swaps.  Thanks again Kat for another awesome year.
