In our traveling artist's guild group, one of the activity prompts was to do some cards, rather like soul collage cards, but with definite prompts. There are thirty prompts. I have been having fun looking for collage elements to match the prompts and making the cards. I will be posting some of the cards as I get them finished. Here are the first two.
I cut the cards from some hanging folders. What ever they make them out of is pretty tough. The cards are 5.5 X 8 in. I used a half inch stamp set to put the promts on the top edge. Then just sorted through my stash to fine things that fit the prompt. Roses and hearts are romantic, and paper dolls, make believe monsters, pets, and such are childish. I have to go back to the prompts to see what it is I am to do with these when I am done, I think we use them as prompts for writing about our travels. I will be adding more to them, words, and maybe some blending glaze. It is a great way to use up some of your stash.

Carol these cards are wonderful! I have a large set of cards that I have been painting with leftover paint for over a year. I want to do something with them - and this might be it. I LOVE having prompts. Is this an online group and is it open?
Again - great art, great work. Lori from sketchbook

That sounds like fun! Love your two cards so far.
Hugs
