"From Google Album Archive" is one of six ways to add images to your blog from "Add Images." (You get "Add images" when you click the Insert Image tool in Blogger's editing window.)
Update: The user interface has changed, so my screen shots and step-by-steps are no longer 100% valid. This option is now a sub option under "Blogger."
The top row in this view shows four of the albums in my album archive, including one for this blog.
From here, you can open any album and scroll through it to find an image to add to your blog post or page.
Closely related is "from this blog," which shows everything in your blog's folder in the archive. "From the archive" gives you access to all your archive photos in all of your albums.
This option also has a search feature, something that the actual album archive lacks. Unfortunately, the search does not work very well.
There's no good way to find images in the archive, but there ought to be.
If you want to add a photo you haven't used before, use "Upload."

The Album Archive
The Album Archive is where Blogger hosts the images you upload into your blog. If you delete an image from the archive, you will leave an ugly hole in any blog that uses the image.Closely related is "from this blog," which shows everything in your blog's folder in the archive. "From the archive" gives you access to all your archive photos in all of your albums.
Sorting and Searching Problems
Like "from this blog," this option sorts images according to a mysterious system known only to Google. The date the image was added seems to be a factor, but not the only one. This makes finding things difficult.This option also has a search feature, something that the actual album archive lacks. Unfortunately, the search does not work very well.
