This week's challenge is to incorporate an envelope into you planner. There was no "fun mail" to work with this week. So, I used a Verizon Bill envelope. You know, when you are using junk mail for art, it makes you think. I think about materials I use, waste, if I'm being a good consumer, responsible, yada-yada. I love the "self-talk" that goes along with creating art. It is truly an experience, not just "art."
I used coupon cutting as a time to collage, have a paper ball fight (that was FUN) and to create.
A trip to Lowes = photo op. And, more materials to use.
I will say, I am THROWING JUNK away with each challenge. I am not keeping a pile of junk/papers that I "might" want later. Either glue it down, now. Or, throw it away!
Ta-da. Not quite finished. But, I'm having fun. I need to glue some pictures to the left side and doodle a little more. I want to use this envelope as a place to keep snail-mail going "out." Everyone loves getting mail, and birthday cards. I hope to do better with this. I also used a Christmas Card envelope that was sent "back to sender" because I had the wrong address. The wrong address is an address that I really need to get right and send an encouraging note to them!
I added another envelope back in another section. I want to use this section as a place to write little reminders about CZ. One for Pax coming soon.
If you have questions, or need tips, send me a message on the ART SHACK fb page. I"m glad to help. Art is fun, you should try it!
