I'm part of an affinity group within the Cambridge Art Association. We decided to do a postcard swap with a twist. Instead of sending each other finished postcards, we're mailing half-finished postcards that the recipient can finish. Here are the postcards that I'm putting in the mail:
I used my new Art Foamies foam stamps, did some image transfers, did some drawing and collaging, and just generally had fun making these little guys. I'm currently working on a Studio Vlog for Maker & Super Learner Members all about the making of these postcards as well as sharing what I get in the mail from the other members of the group!
If you're interested in participating in an art swap, there are lots of options for you:
- In the Balzer Designs Students FB group we've been discussing a print swap for #CarveDecember.
- Every year iHanna hosts a postcard swap. I think the 2021 swap just closed, but bookmark it for 2022.
- I found a Global Heart Swap that you can still sign up for!
- Postcrossing is not necessarily art, but it is postcards from around the world.
- I am personally bookmarking the Southern Printmakers Association postcard swap. They're an Australian group and it looks like an epic printmaking swap!
- You can always ask in any art group you belong to — online or in person — if people are interested in doing a swap. In my experience, many people are.
Feel free to share any art swap tips or links in the comments!
Thanks for stopping by!
Someone will be fortunate to get these cards. Thanks for all the links to other swaps.
