Our group is for friendly people who enjoy working with cloth paper in fabric books, Artist Trading Cards, postcards, collage, altered anything, surface design, embroidery... where ever our creative spirit takes us. Artists, would-be-artists, or crafters (whatever you choose to call yourself) who are willing to share ideas and knowledge, swaps, or just lurk and learn are welcome! Every weekend we have ART FEST a place to post the art you've created that week. One piece is chosen each week to enhance the front page. Here are this year's winners, and those from last year.

So Janene, next Tuesday it's your turn to your pick for ArtFest winner. Let us know at clothpaperstudio-owner@yahoogroups.com
