Using the pre-cut cards that a friend of mine sent to me, I made the following artist trading cards. I had bought some cute stickers that I placed to one side of the cards. I then went online and found some ocean haikus and a haiku about buttons (for the last card), then wrote them on torn pieces of papers. Next I watercolor painted the papers to match the cards that they were going to be placed on. When dry, I glued them in the empty space next to the stickers. They seemed a little to plain though, so I added some glitter glue to spice them up a bit. I like them. They are simple, but they are still nice to look at. Sometimes simple is best. I wanted to include a link to the page where I found the ocean haikus, but I can't seem to find it again. They also did not have any author's name attached to them.
These are great Kristy! Cute, fun, and very nicely done!! ~tina
