About 8 10 people I know each selected a theme, and then we all made one-of-a-kind mini-artwork (the size of a regular playing card) for each other. The theme I selected was 'The Pacific Islands' I thought I would share with you the cards that the others made for me. Photos don't do justice for these cards, as mamany of them have imagery on both sides, or have 3-dimensional objects glued to the surface. I keep these in a small wooden box on top of my tiki bar.
