Index Card a Day: Week 1

The Index Card a Day challenge is

helping to make 'art every day'

a habit. "Sparkling Collage" above,

includes watercolor, scrapbook paper,

cardstock painted with acrylic,

and hand-drawn images.

This collage includes some images that

I've been saving for quite a while.

The calligraphy is from a piece that 

didn't work out, but I saved this bit 'cause

it was 'still good.' Tree from a magazine,

woman from a clip art sheet. (sorry I

don't know the source)

Fish card, above, is a combination of the

prompts 'fish' and 'dictionary.' Sharpie pen

and watercolor.

This index card will become a postcard

for a Mail Art call. It may be hard

to give it up...I really like how it turned out.

Sharpie permanent markers.

Doodles in Sharpie pen, above.

I've been thinking about making some

'Artistamps' for some time. These were

sketched in pencil and inked in with

Sharpie pen.  Since I am quite a 

'pack rat,' and collect stuff, it seemed

appropriate. (though I'm definitely not

a fan of rats, or even mice for that matter!)

Hop over to Daisy Yellow to find the

links to the other players' cards, or 

even join in! You don't have to catch up,

just start.  One index card every day in

June and July.  It's great fun!
