scrapper11 Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Good thinking, Carla. Here's some ideas - New life or new beginnings Months (like you can scrap January, Feb, etc) Growth, growing, etc Happiness (can be widely interpreted) Places, countries, etc Vintage Color (again widely interpreted) Animals New Technique (try a new technique - digital or hybrid) Weather "Quotable" (use a quote on your card) Black & white (or black & white with one splash of color) This one might be too initmidating - and I mean to ME) Oh my so sorry for taking up so much space and ideas - my brain cells are on high speed and a friend contributed an idea and I looked through some ATC samples. Whew.. Now I need a rest...... WOWSERS Marilyn you're on a roll Lots of ideas there Carla How about "Pets" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whew.. Now I need a rest...... I actually like all of those and thought of Fantasy and Fairy Tales as well. My brain cell (pretty sure I'm down to one now) is not as active as it once was! OOOhhh I LIKE those Ann - I was remembering how much fun it was to do "Flights of Fancy" so these would be the same and kinda magical! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnnBK Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Thinking while I wait...and wait...and wait.... How about Hardware Art? Every time I visit Home Depot or Ace, I see little bits and pieces that I think should be repurposed to something artistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florida granny Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Mine arrived today!! Wow... I thought the last bunch were the best ever, but that's because I hadn't yet seen this bunch. You gals did an amazing job. They are so lovely they actually brought tears to my eyes. What a talented group of artists you are! Carla, thank you for organizing us. And thanks, Angela, for the video. I'm going to watch it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnBK Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 If Angela has hers, can mine be far behind. I'm going to watch the video after today's mail comes...whether I get the cards or not.

MariJ Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 I have shown many people (including my watercolor class today) my page of cards and they all have been quite impressed - in awe -- of the gorgeous work you all have done. Just wonderful, thanks again all..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnBK Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 I completely agree, Marilyn! Are you all as anxious as I am to get started on the next round? Another idea I had was to include something "found", a re-used, up-cycled piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherry Lynn Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Woohoo I rec'd my cards yesterday --- actually they were in the box from Monday afternoon, they are gorgeous, you girls never cease to amaze me!

Another idea I had was to include something "found", a re-used, up-cycled piece. Oh Ann, I like THAT idea, too - very cool thought. It is going to be VERY hard to choose. And, yes - me too. Usually I'm a slow-poke (& of course I will be again) but I am anxious to start. I am so into these little cards. And Sherry me, too - still bringing those cards around and showing people and each one of them was appropriately amazed and totally appreciative of these tiny works of art.
