****PBP May ~ …Garden Meditation Day…**

For this swap you get ONE partner

ONE* 5”X7” **PAGE main focus should be **Garden Meditation Day (If you do not have a garden, and have no way of creating one, here are some great places to do your meditation today: An Arboretum, A Botanical garden, A park)

Always on May 3 This special day was conceived by C.L. Fornari, of Osterville, Ma

"Garden meditation day honors the fact that when we're working in the landscape we have the opportunity, if we choose to take it, to let the rest of the world fall away. This is indeed what meditation is: letting go of all thoughts, concerns, worries and focusing on just one thing...in this case, what we're doing in the garden. It is as calming as a mantra, or focusing on the breath, to name two common forms of meditation. So those who seek a spiritual retreat, a calming yoga experience, actually have that in their own backyards!"

This should be an art journal page that can be added to an existing journal. Make on a sturdy background. If it flops in the wind, don’t send .

Your name, email, should be on the back, signed on the front

A list of material used on the back is also nice.

The usual stuff:

Should go without saying, but will say anyway....

• FLAKING IS NOT TOLERATED*. If you should have any problems contact your partner. If you’re flaked on rate them a 1 & contact me.

Have fun!

Please think about posting your photos on the Page by Page Flickr Group account so we can all see these beautiful pages. I love to see how others create! Swapbot Flickr Page Use any medium(see above) you wish but no nudity or sleaze please. Create an art journal page that can be added to an existing journal. Remember this is for someone’s art journal.

You will have 1 partner. You will only need to complete one side as many people glue them onto another page. Sign the front as you would any piece of artwork you are proud of. Make a small tag with your information on it to be included with the page (can be attached or separate).

To add to an altered book: When you receive a tip-in page, you open your book and cut 2 pages out of it about ½ to ¾ inches from the gutter. Then you glue the inside of each page, slide your tip-in page into the space that has the glue and sandwich it in between. Now you have a new page to your altered book! These are a great way to share end enjoy another's work without the risk of sending your whole book through the mail as you would do in a round robin." This is a one for one swap. Make sure your painting / drawing is packaged durable and can hold up to
