Need some inspiration. Want to have some fun. Well you’ve come to the right place.
Please be kind and do not spam the thread.
Join the 7 Card Draw and…
• you will be inspired to create ACEOs from great challenges!
• you could potentially WIN up to 7 ACEOs in the monthly drawing!
What is an ACEO ?
ACEO stands for “Art Cards, Editions and Originals” – They measure 2.5 x 3.5 inches and can be any medium. More information can be found here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artist_trading_cards
THE RULES
You can issue 1 challenge a day and answer as many challenges each day as you want.
You can list your ACEO’s in your shop and can sell or trade your cards until a winner is chosen and at that time, the prize ACEO’s will be reserved for that person.
To add one ACEO or more to the current month’s prize pool, please use 7 Card Draw in your title. You may add any ACEO to the pool, it does not have to be for one of the challenges. Challenges are only to inspire us.
Search “7 card draw” in the forums each month for a new thread. Be sure to use quotation marks.
Each month a new thread will begin on the 1st day of the month and the winner will be announced on the last day of that month.
To win you must have contributed one or more ACEO’s to the current month's prize pool AND also be an active participant in that months thread. Also we ask that you drop by the thread or check your convo’s on the last day of the month to see if you are a winner, this will help eliminate the potential issue of unclaimed prizes.
The next month the artists have the option of leaving their ACEO's in the pool OR adding a different ACEO to the pool OR not participating.
Participating artists are eligible. Once you've won, you may not win again for the next 3 months (For example, if you win in May, you can not win again until September)
The winner will search Etsy for “7 card draw” - Please make sure to use quotations. “7 card draw” must be in the title for it to be a potential prize.
The Winner chooses 7 ACEO’S as their prize and will convo alwaysartistic with links to their choices so that she can blog them. Then the winner goes purchases the 7 cards, choosing OTHER as payment. If the winner does not claim the ACEO’s within 14 days, those ACEO’s will revert back to the shop owners. No winner will be chosen, we will look ahead to the next winner. This ensures that we start fresh every month.

Hi everyone. Congrats, Marlene, on your win.
I had a wonderful time on my cruise. Royal Caribean is the one for me. I was on Liberty of the Seas. What a fabulous ship.
I took my aceo sheets of my three leaves for a mixed media project which did not develop....instead we made a sculpted mermaid. Unfortunately, I left those photos on board....so if they are ordered I will have to reorder them so there will be a delay.
We had some fun crafting time.....Micheals was really generous to us. We brought home a huge bounty of product plus a roller bag. I am sure I came home with nearly $200 in goodies for my $50 fee. I will try and get some photos up on my blog one of these days.
I hope all of you are doing well. Linda, sorry t hear you are still having problems.

Lee I received Ted and he is even more adorable in person, I am so happy to add him to my collection.
Carole sounds like a wonderful time, looking forward to seeing your pictures.
Today I am going to hopefully get my studio organized and begin creating again, wish me luck.
Have a wonderful day everyone.

Boy, I do not like all the new things they have done to our shops. I can't find anything. I find it awkward. Why can't they leave well enough alone.

hi everyone
Welcome back Carole, glad you enjoyed your cruise.
I don't understand why they went and made even more changes, I find it awkward too...you really have to look around to find stuff. Sheesh! leave it alone already!
Lee I saw your lovely island ACEO - even though your link took us to another thread
Rae I'm really hoping you get answers too, I don't like hearing about anyone suffering like that :-(
sounds like some of your are spring cleaning. I think I need to see a bit of spring weather before I get the urge to purge, lol!

Welcome back, Carole! Sounds like you had a wonderful time =) Great deal from Michael's!
Yep - I think we all have been saying the same thing about all these changes =p
Rae - thanks for the prayers for Crystal! The family is very grateful!
Marlene - cool to be back in the studio creating!
pink - lol - spring makes me want to go be lazy outside! Nice to not be soooooo cold!
I blogged about my wonderful 7 Card Draw win - thank you all for the friendship, fun, and artistic encouragement =) I really enjoy this group!

Carole ~ I'm glad you enjoyed the cruise. Doing all that arting and crafting on such an awesome boat sounds awesome. I look forward to seeing the photographs. And it's nice to have you back.
Marlene ~ good luck with getting your studio cleaned so you can focus on your art again. I've got to re-tidy mine up a bit too.

lee ~ I love your "Island Beach Quest" painting. You always capture the fleeting moment (right down to the sandles) so beautifully. How you could make such a wonderfuj artwork while taking an online class is amazing ... you are really a milti-tasker. By the way, what was the class about?
Hi Pam :::waving:::
Kathy ~ I really enjoyed reading your blog and totally agree that we have created a "circle of friends" here.
Happy Monday ~ rae
