I love Ephemera! Make 1 ATC for 1 partner using ephemera. Collage, paint, stamp, sew, draw - whatever it takes but re-use your ephemera and make your ATC fantastic. ATC 2.5 x 3.5 inches on sturdy cardstock or chip board. I would like us to not have to gear our art toward our partner except to avoid things they dislike. Otherwise, let's all assume we appreciate art and will enjoy getting the artistic creation from our partners. Quick turn around for this. Here's a list of ephemera examples (not exhaustive) ... a spring board for your ideas.
Ephemera Society of America has a great description with examples of ephemera: http://www.ephemerasociety.org/ And, do a google image search for ephemera ATC and you'll see some examples too. Image above is mine from a past swap. I used map paper, the plastic sheeting from inside an old computer keyboard (open those suckers up, that stuff is cool!), Korean book page, black masking tape, postage stamp, a library punch card as a stencil and that'a about it. |
