It's Index Card A Day or ICAD Monday. Although I still don't have a scanner, I have figured out a setup that seems a bit better than my previous attempts to photograph these cards. Thankfully, I will be caught up with these cards I will show today.
Day 20: Funky cups. Cups cut from a couple of masterboard pages I made last year. Coffee dyed index card.
Day 21: Marks and Patterns. Sadly, I ran my arm over the ink pad I used to stamp the date and didn't notice until I was ready to photograph it.
Day 22: Original. Background of papers I water colored. Flower and leaf left over from images I cut earlier. "Original" was originally on a box of crackers.
Day 23: Spooky. Black and orange are paint chip samples and skeleton was cut from a magazine.
Day 24: Stacked. Yellow, orange, red, green, and purple colored papers cut into inverted "U" shapes and stacked on top of each other.
Day 25: Be Joyful. Background is vintage sheet music, over which is layered an offcut from a calendar and a strip of washi tape. Flower is from a calendar and sentiment taken from an all purpose greeting card. 
Day 26: Persevere. Background is Staz-on and alcohol. P from my stash paired with a TH paper doll. 
Day 27: Holly. Plaid and red paper background with gifted holly.
Day 28: Flower and butterfly. Background Staz-on and alcohol. Colored paper cut in shape of flower and stem, then outlined with ink. Butterfly is a sticker from my stash. Stem planted on corrugated cardboard that once held a light bulb.
Day 29: Lemon. Background of Staz-on and alcohol. Lemonade taken from a junk mail ad. The word lemon from a magazine.
Day 30: You're a star. Background is my handmade paper, stars cut from paper on hand, one star gold and focal star I put together from my stash using wire and beads.
Day 31: O Canada. Celebrating Canada's birthday. Focal image is holographic.
Day 32: Not my cup of tea. Background is my handmade paper, cup and saucer from a masterboard, word written using pink Posca pen and blue Zig pen.I am finally caught up with my ICADs. I have been making them daily, I just haven't been photographing them until now.
Bleubeard and I are really grateful you dropped by today. We promise to not let this get out of hand in the future.

Good to see you have figured out how to take clear photos! Technology can be so frustrating.
Lovely ICADs, glad you got some good pics this time. Hugs, Valerie
...I'd like the lemonade please.
These are great Elizabeth. I love the spilled cup of tea and that textured paper. The marks and patterns are great too. Well they're all fun to look at. These are definitely your specialty. I hope you're enjoying this long weekend. hugs-Erika
these are all wonderful. I wouldn't never have known you smeared the ink on the marks and patterns. I thought that was the pattern on the card.
I am sorry. I cannot pick a favorite (not that you asked us to do so).
Love them all!
Such bright, happy colorful ICADs. You must be feeling better.
Happy Fourth!! :)
Nicely done! O
ve been playing around with photos on my iPhone. It isn't too bad!
Another great collection! I love the funky cups especially! Your stacked card reminds me of an artist I interact with on Instagram - she calls those shapes “fish scales”.
I'm amazed at your productivity.
A wonderful selection of ICADs Elizabeth! I love the funky tea cups & Not my cup of tea.
Hugs,
Alison
