This year ICADs 2022 is all about collage fodder. There will be sewing (always using variegated thread), stencils, stickers, and stamping, but hopefully no glue or adhesive.
Day 1: Some of you saw this on the 1st, but I wanted to show it again for those who have not. Besides, it's a short week, so this will complete week 1 at least.
Day 2: I started a series using wrapped gifts. I layered a tag under the gift and painted cardstock. I even did a bit of stamping.
Day 3: Another gift, the number 3, a bit of stamping, and a piece of tissue paper.
Day 4: Yet another gift, heart, two sentiments, stamping, and a sticker heart.Thanks for taking time to visit this week. If you have a blog and show your ICADs on it, please let me know in comments and I will drop by to visit.
Brilliant.
ReplyDeleteLots of fun ICADs, I know how you enjoy this challenge. Have a great weekend, hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteThese are all wonderful Elizabeth! So glad you are ICADing again :-)
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend.

The wrapped gifts are fabulous
ReplyDeleteSilly question, but what does ICAD stand for?!
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful ICADs! The different designs look amazing with the pretty stitching 😁. Happy weekend! Hugs Jo x
ReplyDeleteFun ICADS. I like the wrapped gifts. The bows are very cool, and I can't tell if they are stamped or drawn on. Either way they are eye catching. I'm off this morning to try to plant my veggies before the garden turns to weeds again (it took me the whole day Thursday to clean it out and yesterday it rained all day), and then I'll get to answering emails. I hope you have a great Saturday. Enjoy. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteHi Elizabeth,
ReplyDeleteOn the subject of commenting and having comments not work: I just posted one way to try to overcome the problem:

I hope this helps some people. It may only be relevant on iPads and iPhones, but it is a start.
best... mae
One of these years i will try making the ICADs , ofcourse every year i say i'm going to make my own Christmas cards... um yeah.. hasn't happened yet.. Love your cards Elizabeth! The stitching is great! Why no glue? Just a challenge you made for yourself? Hugs! deb
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!
ReplyDeleteThis was fun!
ReplyDeleteYou have a grand one.
Hugs
Interesting work!
ReplyDeleteThese are so good... the stitching adds so much visually and texturally. I always love your ICAD season!
ReplyDeleteI still haven't got round to braving the sewing machine yet. We've got a friend coming to stay who is used to using one, so I'm hoping she'll give me a quick coaching session.

I love this~
ReplyDeleteLove these!!! I don't have one favorite, but I do love those doodled gift boxes on some of the cards.
ReplyDeleteI just typed up my post to publish in a bit and remembered to come look for your ICAD post. And to my surprise you and I are on the same wavelength- using up collage fodder, and even stitching :):) Looking forward to following along with you.
I love your ICADs this year Elizabeth, quite a challenge to hold everything together with stitching! I did a lot of collage on mine last year but this year I have done something different which I think might appeal :) Elle/EOTC xx
