Six Summer Squares Swap - Postmark by Monday, August 20th

(Seashore, observing nature, riding bike/picking cherries,
travel, making art, catching frogs)
Let's try something a little different than our usual post card swaps, but similar to the Blue Valentines SQUARES Swap we had a while ago.  

Illustrate your Summer-themed SQUARES with images, colors, sayings, souvenirs/memorabilia, photo bits that remind you of this season between Spring and Fall.  Here's a chance to use up those scraps on your work table (or floor). 

Collage, paint, stencil, Gelli-print, draw on six (6) SQUARES.  The finished SQUARES' sides should all measure 2+1/2".  

You could cut six SQUARES out of card stock and then decorate each one.

OR

You could start with a 7+1/2" x 5" rectangle, decorate it for backgrounds, then carefully cut it into individual smaller SQUARES and finish with details as desired.

***Participants, send your SIX DECORATED SQUARES in an envelope, and enclose another envelope (greeting-card-sized or long business envelope) with your address on it, in which your swap host can then mail your exchanged squares to you.
