ICADs For July 25 through July 31 (and the wrap-up)

I have a lot of scraps and pieces I simply can't get rid of, even though they are cluttering a large basket in my office, where I keep scraps I hope to use over time.  Because these didn't make much sense to me, I called this one "Random."

I got out my bingo dabbers and drew lines across the IC, then found an image I thought went well with it.  I couldn't find a good quote, so added a feather I found in my scraps stash.

I reached into my scraps box, determined to use a few of these, and put them together with a single staple.

It took two tries to get this image on the IC today.  I used shimmer mists first, then stamped.  Although I like this wood mounted stamp, I have trouble getting a good image.

I remember making several of these dresses one year, and here is the final one, once again found in my scrap basket.  I paired it with some white swirl vellum and green copier paper, also from my basket.  One staple held everything together nicely.

Four more scraps made up this IC when I stapled them together.  I wish I had more of that lovely bird paper, but that was all I found.

To wrap up the entire year summer, I created this mosaic.  However, 31 does NOT work with divide evenly in a mosaic, so I had to limit the ICADs to 60 days.

Many of you have seen June's mosaic,

and here are the first 30 days of July.

For my final day, I created this, which pretty much sums up this two month journey.  And I rethought glue several times as I was making these.  But, if you peruse them, you will see, I never used glue on any of them.

As a bonus,

as promised, if I found the IC I made on June 8, then lost, I would show it when I found it.  Well, I found it as I was cleaning my office.  I kept all my completed daily ICADs in a small box that needed to be scanned.  After scanning, I transferred them to a decorated box that I intend to keep them in as I have in years past.  June 8's entry apparently fell out of the small box before I could scan it (I only scanned these once a week which was early each Friday morning), and didn't think to look on the floor behind the scanner.  I found it yesterday as I was cleaning and purging in the office.  I was so happy I found it just in time for the wrap-up!

Of course, although I met the ICAD 2015 challenge, I did it my way, without prompts, without a way to link up these fun cards, without GLUE, and without using a single index card, instead cutting all my ICs from used manilla file folders.

Thanks to everyone (and I mean EVERYONE) who has followed me on this daily journey for the previous two months.  Your visits and comments have meant the world to me and kept me going as I completed this challenge.  BTW, these will soon be shown are now located on my Previous Collaborations page.
