Index Card A Day: Days 20 through 26

 

 It's Wednesday, which means it's time for Index Card A Day or ICADs.

 

Day 20: Pink and Green.  Various images from my stash, including S&H green stamps, all sewn to substrate using variegated thread.

Day 21: Quirky.  Image from a travel magazine that caught my eye.  Computer generated word.  Date stamp slipped on slick paper.

Day 22: Stilts.  Image from a travel magazine.  Background created with water soluble crayon.  Computer generated word.  Dye ink, black pen.  I don't seem to learn.  Date stamp slipped again on slick paper.

Day 23: Long legged beauties.  After creating Day 22, I found a smaller expanded version of the flamingos and couldn't help but create a different version of them.  Computer generated sentiment.  Image found in a different travel magazine, dye ink.

Day 24: Grumpy.  Another image from a travel magazine.  Background water color.  Words created with white Posco pen.

Day 25: This is for the birds.  Two bird images from my stash, center bird cage and birds were a gifted see through sticker, black Posco pen.

Day 26: Her book of spells.  Scrapbook paper, TH paper doll, computer generated sentiment, black dye ink.

Thanks for joining Bleubeard and me today.  We are thrilled you took time to drop by.

Nice ICADs.
I am having an easier time doing whatever strikes my fancy. :)

I'm favoring Her Book of Spells. That spell is a winner!

Very retro to use S&H green stamps. Somehow the supermarkets where I shopped, and even the ones where my parents shopped, never gave out green stamps, so I don’t have all the memories that a lot of women have.
best, mae at maefood.blogspot.com

I'm full of admiration for you and others who commit to the ICAD project! The card size helps I'm sure, but still... one a day likely sounds easier than it is.

These are great Eizabeth. You have some great images to use like the flamingos, the police box and even some green stamps. I hope it was great Wednesday. hugs-Erika

Elizabeth, whenever I visit your blog I learn a new word in English. ICAD. I have no idea what it possibly may be. And I also learn what creativity is. Those images are gorgeous!

Love the Long Legged Beauties and Stilts. Very clever.
Have a grand one, dear Elizabeth.

Good morning, these are great-the S&H stamps caught my eye-my mother had saved books of them to buy things for our camping trips
Happy friday and weekend
