Postcards, Swaps and Blog Hopping

Over the past few weeks, my mailbox has been receiving sweet surprises in the way of postcards.  Kat Sloma over at Kat Eye Studio, got the brilliant idea to liberate art by means of a postcard swap.  I send 5 cards highlighting my artwork and in return I receive 5 cards of other's artwork.  It is worldwide and all kinds of art.  Each card I received had a beautiful quote on the back in addition to the beautiful artwork on the front.  Starting today, we are all invited to join into a worldwide blog hop celebrating the liberation of art.  All the participants who have blogs will highlight the cards received and provide a blog hop link at the end of the post.

 What a lovely bunch don't you think?!  If there was a blog or website indicated I provided the link under the card so that others can visit and see more from one of these great artists. 

Thank you, thank you Kat Sloma for putting this together this year!!  It's a wrap for 2012 - Beautiful work, all!  Happy hopping everyone
