TPS: Inspiration Cards - January 2018

It is a good thing that I am a patient person. There still seems to be some participants that are having problems fulfilling the swap requirements properly. Those who cannot do so will be banned from future swaps.

Although this shouldn't have to be mentioned ... again ... remember the following:

1. You must send by the deadline. If an emergency causes you to send late you must communicate with your partner AND with me BEFORE the deadline explaining the situation.

2. Please send quality work. Send something you would love to have in your own collection. Share an inspirational quote that you find helps you face challenges with strength and joy.

3. Rate promptly. You must rate your partner. Please do so as soon as possible after receiving your cards. It is a pita to have to chase down ratings!

Now let's have some fun!

I approach these cards as being 2-sided ATCs. The sides can relate to each other or be separate entities. You can use any media you want -- maybe even approach them as mini journal pages. At least one side must have an inspirational message -- sayings or quotes of some kind. And because this is swap for the group The Print Shop both sides of the card must utilize a mono-printed background. (Feel free to keep the embellishments simple -- be sure some of your beautiful mono-prints show through).

You will make two cards for one partner.

You can see examples of the cards I've made so far in my Flicker Album: Inspiration Cards.
