Description: | |
For this swap you will create an altered collage postcard for your partner. You will start with a postcard of your choice, and alter with collage bits. You may also use some paints, inks, rubber stamping, etc. but that should be minimal, with the main focus being collage. You are not going for full coverage, and a lot of the original postcard should still be seen and identifiable. Try to add at least a couple collage bits here. No artistic abilities necessary .. just have fun and create something nice for your partner. A great place to find images is old magazines and books. You will send the postcard stamped and naked through the mail, so be sure that anything you add to the front is glued down and secured :) Include a short note on the back for your partner. You can talk about the inspiration for your creation, talk about your week, or just say hi :) Don't forget to include your swap-bot name and the name of the swap. If you are on Instagram, post a picture with the hashtag #cpgswap Happy creating! Image: owned by Jean McEwan, found via Google |
