Index Card Art Part 3

Hello Friends!

Here's my midweek ICAD catch up.  I think these constitute my least exciting or inspiring group of cards.  There are two or three half way decent, but I hit a dry patch on inspiration.  It happens.

This one was made for the Summer Solstice with swooping swallow in a blue summer sky with a hint of ripening corn.

I used the aforementioned pad to make a 3d moon


A similar removal process enhanced with doodling.  Very underwater feeling!


Doodling and bubble wrap printing

I call this one Bubbles in Chains

Drawing 3d bubbles


    


I hope you'll say if you have a favourite one!

Until next time
Stay safe, Stay well

    Beautiful and such a clever idea re: the cotton pad and surgical spirit. Love the swallow and moon one particularly!! But all super. 3d bubbles are special too. Stay safe and well. Look forward to the next post and more delights :)

      Thank you Ragged Robin. For me, ICAD is all about experimenting and finding new techniques. Glad you like them.

    I love the colours in the last one, but like bubbles in chains best.

      Thank you Martha Ellen. Blue seemed to be my main colour this year. I'm itching to get my bubbles right! xoxo
