This is sort of one idea. Or m-fay could just randomly choose a color for the month. I didn't know this idea had been used previously. I began with the first Calendar Holidays of the Month. I think of post cards as small challenges and a way to stretch my techniques or try new ones.
If Months Were Colors
If months were colors, here is the palette:
January - White
Fresh start, lots of snow
February - Red
Valentine's Day, cozy evenings
March - Gray
Cabin fever sets in, sides of road are gross
April - Pink
Buds are blossoming under gentle rain
May - Blue
Optimism abounds as days get warmer
June - Yellow
Sunshine, beaches and good cheer
July - Orange
Searing, steamy summer days and nights
August - Gold
Heat reaches its apex, dog days abound
September - Purple
School colors, civic pride, productivity
October - Orange
Leaves in full color, Halloween
November - Brown
Cornucopia of harvest, turkey graces table
December - Green and Red
Christmas wrapping, elves and candy canes
