Did anyone notice that June has 5 weekends? 5 days off, 5 Saturdays, 5 Sundays - 5 extra weekends to make art! Yay!

For this swap, I'm stealing an idea from one of Stephidee's swaps over at the C+P ... except Steph did an ATC and I'm going for a postcard ...

Send 1 postcard to 1 partner using 5 elements and/or items. So only 5. No more, no less. Background doesn't count (it's a freebie).

So ... Blue paint = 1 Blue ink = 1 Blue patterned paper = 1 A different blue patterned paper = another 1

and like that but only totaling up to 5. You can use the same color blue ink or blue paint in more than one place with it only counting as 1.

It's a fun challenge - easy for some, harder for others. Be artful about your creation.

Postcard to be sent naked (not in an envelope) so include enough postage if your pc gets bumpy.

Blue above is just an example - the card doesn't have to be blue.

Love this idea, but I'm going to be out of town and away from my supplies for most of it. Have fun everyone!

Do all 5 items have to be the same color?

Angie 06/21/2013 #

AmyMarie,

No. Each color counts as one thing. So if you use pink paint you can draw a line and a circle and a letter x and that all counts as one because that's one color item - pink. Then, move on to the next - black marker - line, circle, stick figure - that's number two if all in the same color marker.

:-)
