Create and Illustrate

Make an image to express your dream. You can bring your dream to life with paint, pencils, sculpture, photography, words.

Your Experience

Answer the question: What is the most inspired, amusing, positive or quirky thing you have gained from your mental health experience?

Deck of Dreams: Send in your Dream

To participate in the Deck of Dreams simply send in your dream. Once my imaginary alter ego, Super Jen receives your dream, she will send you further instructions.

With your contribution, Super Jen will keep out of trouble and more importantly, the Deck of Dreams will be an ever growing community project helping to keep dreams alive. It will also give her the opportunity to tinker with creative projects such as Bump to Baby and scribble down thoughts in books like Bipolar Blessing

The Deck of Dreams is an ongoing community project. You are always welcome to join in, I love receiving your dreams. Everything you need to know to participate in the Deck of Dreams is here.

A dream you dream alone is only a dream.
A dream you dream together is a reality
