AMA: Holiday Card HD/HP/Collage Collaboration RR

Let’s create a collaboration Holiday Card! Start with a half page of card stock or blank greeting card. The card can be up to 5/7 inches and should fit in a standard greeting card envelope.

Divide the front into the assigned number of spaces. To illustrate, I'll say 4. This number will depend on how many sign up for the swap. Divide the front of your card into the sections evenly so each artist has room to work.

Number each of the squares in a corner. Decorate the edges of your card if you like. You start--pick a square and put a little holiday themed doodle/sketch/ drawing embellishment in it. You may use any of the holidays between the start of the swap and mid Jan as a theme for your art. There are several so there should be something for everyone.

On the inside draw numbered lines across it. On the line with the number corresponding to the space you used on the front add a Holiday greeting and sign your name. Now put it in an envelope and send to the next person in the RR. We will each get our card back and have a wonderful greeting card from all of us.

Any questions or concerns, contact me. You’ll need to wait until the swap is assigned before you start your card since you won't know how many sections you'll need.

I’ll leave plenty of time to create, but please send promptly to the next person so we can get these back in time to send out if we choose to part with our creation. All swaps must be sent by the deadline!

I will post the sequence to send once sign up ends and partners are assigned. We will be ignoring the assignment and sending in a RR circle. For example, if 10 people sign up, we’ll have 2 RR circles—one with 4 and two with 3 members. Those in the group with 4 will send to 3 others, those with 3 will send to 2. Trust me, it works! I've done it before like this.

Spread some holiday cheer!
