Rather belatedly, I decided to take part
in a year long collage challenge,
hosted by Melinda Morgenstern.
Using a pack of playing cards,
the challenge is to create a collage
using a specified card
& if you want to,
follow an additional,
yet optional, prompt.
If you are on Instagram,
you can follow the challenge hashtag to see
the collages from all the participants.
Week 1
The first card picked was the 8 of Clubs.
Week 2
The card picked was the 5 of Diamonds
& the prompt was Stripe.
Week 3
The card picked was the 9 of Diamonds
& the prompt was Catch.
Week 4
The card picked was the Q of Diamonds
& the prompt was Waiting.
