*altered puzzle*

Blank Puzzle*a quarter to show size … a little dark in the pic*

back in March I told you about our local altered artists group puzzle piece swap … ten of us participated which left three pieces of our own to decorate … everyone had a different theme … mine was Blue/Purple

amazing to begin with a blank puzzle and see how differently everyone’s turned out … I was not consistent in taking pics of the pieces I created for others … but you can see some herehere and here and also if you click the word March at the beginning of this post
