Calligrams! (Word Monograms) - HD/HP - due July 14th.
The idea for this swap is to take a word and turn it into a calligram. What is a calligram? Technically:
"a word in which the design and layout of the letters creates a visual image related to the meaning of the words themselves"
This designer had some clever ideas: https://digitalsynopsis.com/design/hidden-meaning-logos-word-as-image-calligrams/
Here are a couple of my examples

A phrase or snippet of text would be okay too.

3. This swap is 3 for 3. An extra card for the host is welcome, but completely optional.
Other stuff
