Beaded Face Swap 2008

Finally, it's time for the Beaded Face Brooch Swap 2008!

Create a brooch/pin no larger that 2 ½ x 2 ½ inches.
Anything goes for the face as long as it implies a human face and has some beads.
Polymer clay, buttons, paper clay, image transfer, felting, bead or regular embroidery, what ever strikes your fancy.
This is a 1 -1 swap. Due to me by September 26th.
You must include return postage of $5.00 or a Priority Stampand return mailing label. If you do not send return postage, your pin is mine.
International swappers welcome and encouraged.
Please include a note with your real name and screen name, mailing addy, title of your piece and any other info you think might be nice to know about your piece.
All pins will be swapped and mailed the first 2 weeks of October.
This is a fun, fast swap and great opportunity for all you newbies to try your hand at creating something.

Email me to sign up.
