ICAD Challenge Week Six

 

 

Let's not discuss how far behind I am on posting the weekly cards for Gwen's little group in the Index-Card-A-Day Challenge;I'm even further behind in getting my actual index cards done.

The theme for week six is: Use a different color palette (a different combination of colors) each day this week. Any medium.

The prompts are as follows.

Index Card a Day Challenge: Week Five

 

There was some serious groaning going on last week in Gwen's little ICAD challenge group and I can't say that I blame anyone.

The prompts were fun for the most part, but I think the theme threw a lot of us: Mark-making tools, stamps, stickers & tape. Found stamps, eraser stamps, date stamps, postage stamps, stickers & washi tape.

Here are the results.

Day 29 - "Iced Cream"

Annski

 

Ellen

 

Laura Leigh ("Help! I'm melting!")

 

Naomi

 

Ree (I think this is how she felt about the theme this week.)

 

Day 30 - "Telephone"

Annski (I really like this card. Just sayin'.)

 

Ellen

 

Laura Leigh

 

Naomi ("Liar, liar, pants on fire. Your nose is longer than a telephone wire.")

 

Ree

 

Day 31 - "Trivia"

Annski

 

Ellen

 

Laura Leigh (I rode the carousel in Hyde Park in London and never noticed we were going the wrong way!)

Day 33 - "Mad Men or I Love Lucy"

Annski (Vintage DYMO Tape from the Mad Men era. Annski didn't like Pete Campbell. Thus, the poopy-colored tape. Ha!)
