Catch-up continues - x weeks in review

Today I’ll catch up to the end of May.  That will give me a fresh start next week to catch up from June 1, which coincides with the beginning of the Index Card a Day Challenge (ICAD).  

Let’s start with the 100 day project updates:

I made a couple of mixed media postcards:

For some reason the other one doesn’t want to show up as a photo, but it was similar in a slightly lighter palette, just me playing around with shapes and marks.

I made a collage for the Februllage online challenge and was thrilled to have it featured on their Instragram feed.  

 

I also did a few ‘warm-up’ cards for ICAD, although not really necessary when I’m already doing a daily project, it was fun nonetheless.

 

 

Last but not least, here is a group shot of my outgoing postcards for the IHanna DIY Postcard Swap:

Thanks so much for joining me today as I continue to catch up for the past couple of months.  Stay safe out there!

First of all, I am blown away by all this art. The first two look like they were created on watercolor paper. The texture of the background made me think that.

I spent forever enlarging each art work and I was so impressed. One of the things that made me happy was, I see you don't always use words, sentences, sentiments, or quotes in your art. I don't either, but some people feel if you aren't adding words, it's not right. I guess that comes from my altered book days when I seldom had words attached to my collages. Speaking of collages, I love the one that was featured on Instagram. I may have to steal (OOPS, I mean COPY) that design. I like it THAT much.

I'm glad you are also making ICADs this year. Linda K (heARTfully inspired blog) is also doing them. She shares hers every Monday night or Tuesday and I show mine on Friday.

Loving those postcards. I've seen them before, at least most of them. My fav is still the pears from yesterday. That one belongs in a gallery!

These are all so incredibly inspiring and wonderful. I am always inspired and get so many ideas when I see your incredible art, dear friend.
