AIA: "AI Made Me Do It!" #1

Have you ever blamed your cat, your art supplies, or Mercury retrograde for your creative choices? For this swap, you can blame AI (artificial intelligence).

Your challenge is simple: ask an AI tool to give you a creative, mixed media art challenge, then follow it to create one piece of happy mail art for your partner, such as:
- Journal card
- Tag
- ATC (2.5"x3.5")
- Artist postcard
- Mini collage
- Art journal page insert (no larger than 5"x8")

🗣️You can ask AI things like:
"Give me a mixed-media art challenge."
"Give me five random things to include in a collage."
"Create a whimsical art journal prompt."
"Give me an unusual color challenge."
"Invent a strange theme for an ATC."

💬Examples the AI might tell you to:
- Use only circles.
- Create art inspired by a lost civilization of mushrooms.
- Combine celestial and kitchen themes.
- Use three random colors you would never choose together.
- Illustrate the world's worst motivational quote.

Whatever AI gives you, run with it!

Requirements -
✔️ Handmade original artwork
✔️ Have fun interpreting the challenge
✔️ Make it recognizable as your own artistic style
✔️ Tell your partner about the AI question and response

Please Do Not -
❌ Send unaltered AI-generated artwork
❌ Let AI do all the creative work
❌ Stress about perfection; the fun is seeing how different artists interpret wildly different challenges.

🥜In a nutshell:
💠Use any AI tool (Copilot, ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, etc.)
💠Ask it for a creative mixed-media challenge.
💠Create artwork inspired by the challenge.
💠Include a quick note with your swap telling your partner what you asked AI and its response.
