Theme: Summer
Go wild, it could be beach, vacation, cook-out, gardens, ice cream, flip flops, fishing, bike riding, watermelon, sunglasses...just some ideas.

How to make :

Use the following list to create a work of your art on a 3x5 index size card. I'm going to try to make this easy for our newbies that want to join and try their hand. Please go look at some YouTube videos and Google, Art trading cards for some how to's and ideas. I'm selecting a bigger card, due to the fact of some of the things listed on our hunt list. Simple idea...collage style, could work for those first timers. There is no wrong way!

Here is our list:
**Newsprint: newspaper, page from an old book, ad
**Gum wrapper
**Something red
**Texture: fuzzy, bumpy, rough, leathery, soft
**Something seasonal: Xmas, fall, 4th of July, winter (wrapping paper, ribbon, card, gift bag)
**Paint chip: find at Lowes, Home Depot, paint store. Just use a piece.
**String like item: yarn, string, ribbon, rubber band, thread , etc
**Something that looks like metal: button, coin, foil, key, charm..etc
**Shirt tag
**Fruit sticker
**Popsicle stick

You will probably need glue and scissors. Don't neglect any or all your crafting tools or supplies.

Please make one 3x5 card for each person who signs up. ( if your feeling inspired make 2!) Use at least 3 items from the list, or more if you want!

If you have any questions about the list, and you think it falls under a thing on the list, use it! I'm giving you the power!

Specifics:
Sign up starts today and will close July 16.
Projects due back to me by August 19th, and officially late Aug 25th. That's five weeks. Our sign up rules and late rules will apply, the ones that have already been established. (See past posts)
Please list what items you used on the back and sign your work of art!
