Description:

We all seem to be having fun with the first scavenger hunt postcard, so let's keep going! Here is your next scavenger list:

  • dinosaur
  • trumpet
  • queen
  • plaid
  • circle

Create one original collage postcard featuring the above listed items. How you interpret and represent the items is up to you: text, images, papers, ephemera, other media/mediums, shape of the card - get creative and have fun with it!

The size and shape of the postcard are sender's choice. The scavenger hunt items need to be included in the actual collage itself - or represented by the shape of the postcard. Anything on the note & address side will not count toward a completed scavenger hunt postcard.

You should send your postcard naked and written on, but you are welcome to send it in an envelope in the event it needs a little extra care. Don't forget to reference the swap name on the back of your card.

I ended up LOVING the first one, so I'm joining...we'll see where it goes! I think trumpet will be the tricky one for me this time - but last time the tricky one (Beethoven) turned out to be my favorite element!

Trumpet??? Oy vay!

@MissMillie & @isabellasnow - yay, glad to have ya again!

@ladyphlogiston - you know what was hard for me on the last one? The number 6! I mean, really. That should have been the easiest. I think I was just over-analyzing it.

@FarStarr - yep, a trumpet. Toot, toot ;D

These are so cool! How do you come up with the items? (o;

stephiedee 03/18/2013 #

@marooter - Some are things I've seen on profiles or otherwise picked up here and there. I'm actually trying to stick to a formula so I can just do some simple word association: an animal, a thing, a person, a pattern/color/finish, and a shape/symbol/alpha. The list gets created when the swap is created.

If anyone has ideas for future lists, feel free to send them to me.
