April Challenge

I think all four of us had fun with the March Clothespin Challenge. I must say that I am partial to Julie's giraffe and Jeanne's little old lady with the walker. All were creative!

Our group challenge for April is to make a set of Artist Trading Cards. Make at least four in your series so that we can exchange them with each other. Make more if you want to share with a friend!

Artist Trading Cards do have a few parameters:

• They are the same size as a baseball card: 2.5" x 3.5"
• Start with cardstock
• Use any medium that works for you: paper, fabric, painting, collage, found objects, etc. It can be as simple or elaborate as you wish.
• Make it a Spring or Easter theme, incorporating your personal theme. I'll find a way to put a heart or two on mine.
• Sign the back with your name, date, the name of your series, the series number, and perhaps your email address.
