Please note: I've had trouble for the past two days trying to leave comments on blogs with embedded comments. If you've posted and haven't heard from me, this is why. I get "failed to publish," or no comment box, even after I refresh. Please be aware, I am doing all I can possibly think of. The help aspect at Blogger isn't much help. I am NOT ignoring you, or your blog posts. I assure you, it's a Blogger problem, but I'm the one suffering for and stressing over it.
These are my ICADs for this week. ICAD stands for Index Card A Day.
A couple of weeks ago, my friend Deb asked (in comments) why I chose to sew everything this year. The answer is simple. I have tons and tons and tons and tons and tons of thread, but am nearly out of every adhesive I own, including glue sticks and PVA glue.
Day 19: Paying homage to Juneteenth with blue scraps, a butterfly sticker, and two butterfly stamped images. Juneteenth is all about freedom and called Freedom Day. Yesterday, however, women's right to choose (the choice should be THEIRS, not some judges) was basically taken away from them. They no longer have the right to choose, but must live by the antiquated laws that were in effect before many of us were born.
Day 20: Various blue papers from my stash, stamped flower, image of a gift, and I outlined the index card in blue dye ink.
Day 21: Stickers, endangered species stamps, turtle doves stamped on twill left over from a Christmas project, and papers from my stash.
Day 22: Endangered species stamp, paper from my stash, vintage lady from my stash.
Day 23: Background is a security envelope, words written using a Sharpie, "Gas" from my gas bill security envelope, two postage stamps.
Day 24: Background and splatters are handmade shimmering mists, metal disc, books from a business card, large image from a brochure on paint, and a smiley face sticker.
Day 25: Background is a security envelope, blue images from my stash, arcade gift from Cracker Jacks.

Lovely ICADs, enjoy your weekend!
Love your creative stitchery.
Hiss and spit at blogger.
Lovely. My favorite is the first one. Those stamped butterflies look so ethereal.
I've gotten the "failed to publish" error too. When that happens, I reboot my computer since refreshing the page just pulls it from the cache. Usually there are no more problems after a reboot. Not a restart. A full reboot to blow the brains.
Great ICADS. You have a fun collection of collage fodder from the variety of ICAD images you used. I like the blue one a lot, but they're all great. Have a great Saturday. hugs-Erika
Fun! I especially like Day 20.
The only commenting problem I still have is the one blog I follow that has the "sign in to google to comment" button. I click it, but nothing happens.
I think the stitching really gives a lot of texture and interest to your pieces, Elizabeth. I like them all!
Aaaawww thank you for answering my question Elizabeth.. I'am sorry to hear you are nearly out of adhesive!!! I do think the stiching adds alot to it though... Alot of interest. I too am sorry to hear about Roe vs Wade.. We have stepped back into the dark ages.. Many people don't understand the implications of that ruling.. Hugs! deb
Lovely icads
Blogger, eh...
Oh, the lady in black is my fav!!!
They are great ICADS.
Blogger is causing many of us problems with commenting at the moment, it is very frustrating.
All the best Jan
Great use of the envelopes, and I love the birds and butterflies! Beautiful ICADs!
I really love all the stitching on your cards, and especially like those postage stamps.
As for Blogger and comments I also have trouble with some blogs- especially Wordpress blogs and have been trying to figure it out too...
Ohhhh these are just beautiful. Have a nice evening.
Loving the stitching Elizabeth- sorry I haven’t been keeping up with your ICADs. I was away on my first business trip in over 2.5 years and guess what I brought back with me? COVID of course. Anyway, I’m on the mend after being out of commission for about a week. Take care.
