I JOINED A SWAP GROUP OF 25 FABRIC ARTISTS AND WE ARE CREATING WHAT WE CALL FABRICARDART.
We are creating our own postcards that we send through the mail to the other members of the swap. They have to be hand cancelled and go through the mail without a protective envelope....just like a postcard is sent. We have fabric artists from all over America and even England and Denmark!. We've been given 3 months to create and send our cards, with whatever theme we wished.
Since I'm from Michigan, the "Great Lakes State"....my cards are all scenic lake landscapes, representing the many moods of Lake Michigan. Doing this kind of miniature fabric art is really a good practice in creativity. I find that one idea leads to another, etc. and am already looking forward to my next swap.
The people participating in the swap are friendly and helpful and encouraging. What more could one ask for?
My sister and I are in the same swap and are always exchanging ideas and techniques.
So...here they are..some of my post cards. They were fun to make and they challenged my creativity.......and that's
A GOOD THING.
