#12

pixie

Just a thought .....

Would people be interested in actually doing 12 pieces of art work with the idea that the 12th set be sent to The Reunion for the Raffle???

Deb

Love this idea!

Deb

Darn! On vacation so missed the boat on this one! I hope ya'll do a 12th set for the BFP Reunion as I might have to buy raffle tickets from afar just to bid on them!

Katniss-come-lately....

I think that is a great idea sis! I love it!!! And I would even send extra for postage to mail all of them to where ever they need to go for the raffle.

I would definitely do a #12 so we can send a set to the reunion. I think that's a really fun idea!

Darn! too late! *waits for the next project*

Yep, you are right, sorry about that.
We each make 11.

I'm sorry I had a private message that beat your post in.

Let's do a quick poll.
This is a small project, would others be willing to do a few more, 3 so Katniss, deb and pixie could join?

or should we do the 11 + 1 for the raffle and leave it at that.
Please weigh in, this seems to be a popular one.

I'm open to doing more!

If the original group decides not to include us 3 latecomers I am wondering if we could have a second group of 6-12 folks? I haven't done one of these before so not sure what protocol is on sign-up so it is just a thought. I'll happily acquiesce to the group's decision.

Katniss~~:eatinghersheybar:

I'd be willing to do more (the people who expressed interest), but then we need a firm decision that it is closed. Also, please let us know if we will do the extra card for the Reunion.

Okay, if we include everyone who has expressed interest, plus one for the Reunion we'd all make 15 cards and mail them to Laruss. Laruss does this sound good?

I think this is perfect. You can do them all the same or all different or some the same. They are cute and small.
So, each person makes 15.

Ok, but now we are officially closed. And yes now that it is more, I would appreciate $5, but would understand if you joined because it was only $2. Send what you can and I will get them all sent out.

I do miniature watercolours and I got the idea from the Artist Trading Cards.
I would like us to do Artist Trading Cards with at least 2 mediums, mixed media style. That can mean 2 different types of paint, or embellish it with stones, glass, cut outs, photos, markers. The possibilities are endless.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artist_trading_cards This is What Wiki says about the ATC's.

Here are some ideas. http://www.atcsforall.com/ there are no end of possibilities. You can search them out on the Internet or just make up your own.

They are 2-1/2" x 3-1/2" in size and you can buy them precut in every type of paper or you can cut your own.

If you are in please sign up and I will send you my address to send them to.

Deadline of July 11. You will only need to include $2 Now changed to $5(and American is fine) in your envelope as they won't be to bad to send out. Unless you add heavy items to your cards, in which case $5-$10 would be appreciated.

I am looking forward to everyone's creativity.

Let's try really hard to hit our deadline so that we can get them out before the reunion. I know that is September, but you have to remember mailing times both ways.

Looking forward to it.

And I would still be interested in the letter for the future me project if someone was wrangling that. Or we can wait.
Can't wait to see the postcards from the last project.

YEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhhh

PS: we are used to a minimum of $5.oo;even as I have had to send it late because I get so excited to get it the mail late :blush:

AND, I will be more than THRILLED to accept the donation from the "Penpals, Scrapbookers, Postcard Artists and Other Creative Types Basket". I might even have a volunteer to set it up in the Ballroom. :awww: mumbled the Rafflemeister

The penpal basket thingee is what I wanted to suggest/ wrangle, while waiting on this last one to close. So, I AM A HAPPY CAMPER..:tango::dance1::danceparty::breakdance:

Yay! Thanks for letting me, Deb0670, and Pixie join in the fun! :hk1:

Katniss~~(I need to subscribe to this thread!)

I have my paper ready, and I am hoping to be in the studio this week working on them. Exciting.

Don't forget to send me your return address when you send me your ATC project.

I mailed mine off to you this afternoon! I put in $10.00 (mine have embellishments) but forgot my return address. I will PM you with it but it should be on the shipping label as well.

Yay! Thanks for doing this and I am excited to see them all!

Katniss~~(also, mine are more on the 'craft' side than the 'art' side but I did use 2 mediums as I was fooling around with India inks....)
