ICADs for Days 33 through 39

 

It's Monday and time to share my Index Card A Day, or ICADs for last week.  Here they are below.

Day 33: He turned his failures into opportunities.  Background is Staz-on and alcohol, TH paper doll standing on sentiment, which came from a gifted book of sentiments (thanks Erika).

Day 34: Independence Day.  Old Glory through the years as well as various postage hikes.
 
Day 35: Welcome to my black and white world.  Black cardstock and black flowers on white paper I fussy cut.

Day 36: Joyful Blooms.  Papers I colored and layered, then added marks.  Center of bottom flower is a brad in which I removed the tines.

Day 37: Pots and Pans.  Of all the ICADs I have created so far, this is my least favorite.  However, I needed something for July 7, so I cut these pots and pans from a cookbook and added the words using my pink Posca pen.

Day 38: Music is the universal language.  Background is part of security envelope sewed to an index card.  Colored papers layered behind a square of sheet music colored and reduced.

Day 39: That was then, this is now.  Staz-on and alcohol background.  Three old $0.13 Liberty Bell postage stamps paired with the first ever Forever stamps that just happened to also be Liberty Bells issued in 2007. The original cost of each stamp was $0.41 (USD).

Thanks for visiting Bleubeard and me today.  We appreciate your support.

    Your display of flag stamps is really neat. I've probably used most of them, but I don't remember distinctions among them. All just flag stamps when you want to mail a letter.
