Inspiration card swap (Second edition)

Last year in March I've joined a inspiration card swap for the first time. Here you can see the making of my cards and here the cards I've received from 52 different artists. In December I joined the swap again and used different techniques to create my cards:


Materials used are: a 52 playing cards deck, paper towels, quotes printed out on red paper, acrylics, red ink and neo green spray paint. This is the deck I received with one of my own cards included:


I'm thinking about publishing a card every now and then and give credit to the artist, so you can get to know them too. With 2 decks, I now have a total of 104 different pieces of artwork and this is how they look like all together, first and second edition:


I've done many swaps now, creative and non-creative and I want to encourage ever reader of trying it out too. I think duo swaps, especially if you know each other (from blogging or even real life) can be this much fun too so if you are in for a swap like this one, let me know!

  2. Hi, Lindsay. I've been participating in some swaps recently as well and I really do love it. In fact, I'm planning to participate in the next card deck project at In Search of Dessert. (I believe it's in February.) I can't wait! I love the vibrant colors you used on your creations. Just beautiful.
