Any ideas for creating a quick take home mixed media project for a wellness fair

Mixed Media Art Questions for Milliande

I have been asked to set up a hands on creative arts table at a wellness fair so people can try their hand at something easy that they can put a quote or affirmation on and take home -- I have a lot of blank envelopes and wanted to come up with an idea using them and some simple art supplies Any Ideas?

This is an interesting one ..

~ you could supply some collage letters to make an affirmation quote from, maybe pre cut out words, letters from magazines or a set of letter rubberstamps and a selection of affirmation quotes on display to choose from

~ you could have them make little inserts/ tags for the envelopes that contain the affirmation and decorate the envelope outside , The tag could be embellished with some beads, ribbon , collage , stamping, watercolor etc..

~ You could cut a window into the envelope .. uses a little acetate to make a window from behind then embellish the outer, add the quote behind the window and seal the envelope
You could create a ribbon hanging from the top of the envelope to create a little picture hanging

Maybe others can add their ideas too .. good luck, hope this helps
