Description:

Poached Egg Woman created this collage called “raising the roof” and it inspired me!

Let’s create a PC using candy wrappers & pretty paper pieces!

  • Postcard will be minimum size 4x6” and maximum 5x7”
  • Art will be a scene or cohesive piece with a theme of your choice
  • On back of the card, share the Title of your art and perhaps a bit about what moved you as you created the work
  • Other mediums are also welcome on the card, of course
  • Ensure the card is sent with everything well adhered, and in a manner that will endure the USPS machinery.

NOTE: Even if you write “hand cancel” the items will still be machine sorted due to undermanned postal service centers. I strongly encourage use of envelopes or clear sleeves during this time.

Are we supposed to use pretty paper (as in the description) or candy wrappers (as in the title)?

Thanks for asking @camelsamba BOTH were used in the example, so we’re open to using both as well. I believe that hers were candy wrap and origami papers (if I recall correctly). Here’s another example she made:
