Indecision Becomes Decision with Time..~author unknown

ICAD DAY 5.I'm not following the prompts right now. I'm being a rebel. I can do that, you know. We were told we didn't have to follow the prompts at all. :) I'm taking a nap. It's 7pm. I'm taking a nap. Thanks for visiting.

It's ICAD day #4. And on a less serious note........ The SMASH BOOK overhaul- remember? Here is what one of the pages looks like untouched (except for the piece of paper covering something underneath). It got overhauled. I felt this much more artistically thought provoking. I hope you can feel it. Jo

I Own My Own Dreams.... and You Did Not Make Me Who I Am...~ me

It's day three of the ICAD challenge. I am sure I am not a lone in that I am drawn to making many cards in the same color schemes,depending on my mood, and or medium I am working with. I have been making a lot of mail art post cards so these are interchangeable with ICADS. So, here is #3.

There might be a story in this somewhere......... from time to time. In the beginning ........... there was a flower..... and she was wild...........she wasn't like the other flowers........... elegant and.............hmm. We shall see where it takes us on any given day... And on another note I have to share something with you. My latest Postcrossing post card that I sent was to "a John" (lol) in the Netherlands. Now let me share a bit about John in the Netherlands. According to what he offers in his profile, he's a single 38 yr old, owns his own IT business, plays music and offers links to his U-tube channel(which I visited) and teaches children (I'm not sure what.) He wants to know if there are any princesses around anymore....... something about maps, liking creativity and originality, and wanting to know how to knit (much to his mother's dismay) Oh, and he does not care for modern art or ads etc. Hmm.... We've been down this I-don't-want-or-like-this business before. But. it got my creative juices going. I focused on three words for his post card. Princess, maps and knitting. Originally, it was going to be a princess sitting on a map, knitting, or knitting needles sticking out of her crown. Or "knit this." lol So, instead of giving it up and giving in and sending Mr J a stoooooopid card, this is what I ended up with on Friday night.

His Utube channel is "Jansen with an X" .......... here's the backside of the postcard.

I certainly had fun with it. lol. I am so glad you stopped by so I could share this with you.

There was a Flower.........

ICAD day 2. There was a flower......... she was wild.

Hope you all had a good day. See you next time.

I'm So Excited..... I Just Can't Hide It.

Good morning, dear people. I had to share this news with you. This is what I woke to this morning. More later. Off to do some errands.

In the Beginning

Tammy Garcia over at Daisy Yellow is hosting another ICAD voyage. That's Index-card-a-day in case you don't remember, and I will be trying to meet this challenge of doing some kind of art on an index card a day for the next two months, although I'm not going to sweat it if I don't. It begins today so here's my first one.

On another note, I received another postcard from 16 yr old, senior high school student, Sunyukun, from Chengdu, China, where it is hometown to pandas. She writes that she loves(ed) Michael Jackson and is interested in knowing how to write "I love you," in many different languages. She wrote "I love you" and "USA" in Chinese. ON the bottom of the postcard it says Qin Shihuang's Terracotta Warriors & Horses. I don't see any horses but I do see several headless warriors.

We'll be right back after these messages. :) Thanks for stopping by.
