The list that I have put together for my “So you don’t have
to” posts is up to 14 items, including the three from this past weekend. I am excited
about this because there are things I have wanted to do to cards and now I have
a reason to do them. I am setting parameters for each experiment because I want
them to be easily replicated if anyone else wants to give it a try.
Most will take minutes or maybe a day to accomplish but there
is one that will take time, that is Fuji’s suggestion about finding out if junk
wax can be turned in to worm compost. I have begun the process setting up this
experiment, I plan to make this a one year project which I will be starting
next week.
If anyone has any more suggestions just let me know, I would
love to add more items to the list. The list may be altered a bit here and
there, some are nearly the same so I may just include them in one experiment.
Here is what I have so far:
Burn a chrome card
Create sketch card
Create a collage

Create a collage
Create a custom card
Create multi-layer card/3D
Place a card in bike spokes
Place a card out in the environment for 1 year

Separate base cards (split layers)

Submerge base cards in bleach

ReplyDeleteI just did the "free the graded card" thing. http://thecollectivemind.blogspot.com/2017/05/graded-card-extraction-git-yourself.html
I have not tried to crack a case the way you did, I will have to give that a try. I have cracked the top corner with a plyers and then slid a flat edge screwdriver down the break to crack the case.
DeleteHowbout submerge a graded card? I wonder if those things are waterproof.
ReplyDeleteAnd I see you've got "Skin a chrome card" on the list.. I guess that's like another one I was going to suggest. Trying to peel the layers off. Maybe rip a chrome card? Burn a chrome card?
Good ideas, they have been added to the list.
