Hey there all my artsy friends. Here it is. The official prompt like for the Thrifty Cheap Art challenge. The idea is 15 prompts instead of 30/31. Giving anyone who decides to participate 2 days to complete a prompt verses one. You can use any budget/economical medium you would like to create. You would then post your creation on Instagram the day the prompt is listed using #thriftycheapart2025. Each post should name the products you use to create. Each prompt completed, and tagged will count as one entry into the random drawing. The prize package this year is bigger than ever, and I am so happy to be able to host this event. So put your thinking caps on, grab your supplies, and get to creating. The winner will be announced after 5pm CST on September 30, 2025.
