Petition to stop the sale of Arrowmont property

Hello everyone- The reason I am writIng is because of a place called Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts. This place is an amazing artist community. This place is located in the heart of Gatlinburg, tn. The land that arrowmont has existed on for almost 100 years is owned by Pi Beta Phi sorority. The Pi Phi's have been approached by a buyer for the land. This buy wants to build a water park on that land. This could be the end of Arrowmont. Below is a link to a petition that was started to help save Arrowmont. Please let your voice be heard and show your support for the school. There are many unknowns at the moment and we don't have a lot of answer yet but your voice is very important to the future of the school. Please send this message to everyone you know as we are trying to gather as many signatures as possible before Friday the 22nd. Thank you! The petition only takes a moment and is free. I truly appreciate all you- thank you

Great video of this wonderful Pop Up alphabet book. Really nicely done book and video.



She has a number of other videos of her books which is an unusual way of promoting books. Check it out

This is the most amazing yet simple concept of altered book arts. Beautiful work if not somewhat painful to see old books cut up. Opens a whole new window into altered books.

Hi all. It has been awhile since I have added anything here and I have started an Artistamp wiki at http://www.pbwiki.com. It is a great site to post your collection of Artistamps and I suggest each country create their own pbwiki and post images of their work as well as work they have collected. This could be a great resource for beginners to see what has been done and even some instructions for creating artistamps.

My artistamp wiki is at http://84rms.blogspot.com/

There is a tour of the pbwiki located at PBwiki tour!
