    For 2018, how bout a Color My World theme. I will pair two colors a month, drawn randomly, and u will make a postcard using those two colors. you can add another color, but the main theme must center around the colors of the month.

    Other ideas were

    Wacky Holidays
    Picking two letters a month and designing a postcard depicting one of them o
    Artsy theme such as wavy, circular, straight, landscape, stripes, dots, stars, and then i am stuck for other terms.

    Let me know your thoughts.

    I'm in for December.

    For 2018 I like the idea of all of the themes. This way we get to mix it up and will truly be surprised at a new challenge each month. It will really push us too creative.
