ICAD 2024 Days 16-18 |

ICAD stands for Index-Card-A-Day. I hope to share as many of my cards with you as possible. In this video, I create cards 16-18 of this two-month (61-day) challenge. To learn more about the challenge, I encourage you to visit the site of its originator, Tammy, here: daisyyellowart...
And take a look at this Instagram: / indexcardaday
In addition, I mentioned the additional prompts from @NinaFickettDesigns who you can find on Instagram here: / nina_fickett
The botanical pieces on card 16 were created using techniques learned from Wendy (Willa Wanders) in her Wonky Bits course. You can find all her courses here: willa-workshop...
When I used my Dollar Tree pen, I called it an R3 but it is an R2!!

[@deenaotway7717]

Fabulous icads. Awesome prompts. Love that button with the gold and resin really did make it pop. Thank you for sharing Hope

[@CraftyHope]

Thank you, Deena! There's definitely something about adding a sealer that brings images forward.

[@nypc_junkiemessnan2190]

I love using my Fingers…I always need to feel what I am working with. Nice work. 👍

[@CraftyHope]

YES! It becomes so much more personal when you get right into it. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment 🥰

[@NinaFickettDesigns]

These are great. Love the color blending in that first card. My prompts are left really open and I love to see when creators demonstrate how they interpret them.

[@CraftyHope]

Aw, thank you! I had fun with that color blending...I mean it is some of my favorites! As for your prompts, yeah, I want to be inspired by them as they are too. That's why I never really ask you about them. I want to see how they influence me.

[@cathygreear2598]

Tried to pick a favorite but I love all 3

[@CraftyHope]

That is so kind of you, Cathy! Thank you. I'm partial to the third one, but it is hard to pick a favorite.
