Description:

Turn a piece of authentic ephemeral something into a piece of art. Use any piece of ephemera you wish - an inventory tag, ticket, bingo card, map, take-out menu, old/used postcard - and alter it in any technique/style you wish.

Your altered ephemera work of art can be sent naked as a postcard, but if it's too small or otherwise non-machinable for that, please send it in an arted-out envelope. Sound good?

There's no size restriction on this, though if you choose something small (like a raffle ticket) alter more than one - maybe do something like a tiny accordion booklet with 4-5 tickets (just an idea).


The swap graphic is an altered shooting range target by our very own @Angie :D

And by "arted-out" I mean an interesting handmade envelope or a decorated envelope. ::ducks back behind bushes to lurk::

Oh my gosh. I freaked out when I saw my art above. I was like, I don't remember posting this swap. Ha ha! Thanks for using my image. I'm in.
