icad 5-8 and APR

Updating you with my ICAD challenge work so far:

#5 - doodling my name


#6 - more of that cool combo of purple, teal & lime with one of my fave quotes.


#7 - using the grid prompt, I pulled out my collection of little bird/butterfly stamps


#8 - I picked up a little brayer on sale and wrapped it in rubber bands and starting playing with the patterns I could create.  Then, I realized the APR theme (artist play room) is zentangle this week, so it seemed logical to fill in my little spaces with tangles....


If you haven't joined the ICAD group yet, it's not too late.....you don't even have to play catch up, just start from where you are.

    Doodle goodness and the brayer trick is great. Have you seen Traci Bunkers book on stamp making with all kinds of stuff including rubber bands and other things wrapped around brayers. Neat DIY tool you made. xox

  6. Aren't you the clever one, wrapping rubber bands around your brayer, will have to give that a go! And then filling in the little spaces with tangles, is an awesome idea!! waving hi from the hills of North Carolina :)

  8. Great cards! I especially love the one with the bird and butterfly stamps. I always have a fondness for grids, and that's a great selection of stamps. And the blue/green colour scheme keeps it from looking too busy.

  15. I've never heard of that rubber band thing on the brayer before but I really like how it turned out so I think I need to give that a shot myself. Way to get two challenges in one with that last one.

  16. That tangle is really clever, I found your name in there too. Love all the colours you used. That saying suits me to a tee. I always say my age as ten years less :)
    Those birdie stamps are so cute too.
