An Amazing Paper Swap

In January, I signed up for a paper swap with nine other marblers from around the world. Barb Skoog, organized this swap (thank you!) and I'm so glad that I decided to participate. I'm still relatively new to marbling and I really appreciate the work of other marblers. Each marbler has his/her own style and I will never tire of seeing other people's work. But, as Barb so wonderfully explained on her blog, it is one thing to see pictures of other marbling, and it is entirely another thing to have an actual physical sheet of marbled paper in one's hands to feel and examine closely.

To do a paper swap, just means that each participant sends a sheet of paper to each of the other participants. There were ten people participating, so I sent out paper to the other nine people. And I received nine in return (actually, eight marbled papers and one piece of marbled fabric). Marbled treats in the mail! Each of the participants have kindly given me permission to share photos of their marbling here on my blog.
