Messy pile of index cards for June. Most scribbly trash, one or two decent ones. Overuse of oil pastels, because this is my oil pastel summer. This isn’t a great description, sorry.

Another messy pile, this time of July index card prompts. A mix of scribbles and collage interspersed with too many oil pastels cards with smeary colors.

Finished #dyicad2025 yesterday! 60 cards, because I combined two prompts onto one card. So pleased to have done this and to see everyone’s stuff. Now I have to find a new art project!

A shiny picture of a giraffe peers out at you from the edge of the card. Three greenish blossoms with shiny centers take most of the rest of the space.

Bit of old wrapping paper making an appearance for #dyicad2025 - “giraffe.” Hard to believe I’ve done over forty of these.

#dyicad2025 #creativepractice

A selection of 18 pieces of index card art. Many are collages, several are watercolors, and a couple are marker sketches depicting a wide variety of subjects. Most were inspired by prompts from the #icad2025 #dyicad2025 Index Card a Day art challenge.

Thanks to @tammy999.bsky.social for hosting the Index Card a Day art exploration! It was a joy to participate.

Celebrating the last day of #tdff with #dyicad2025 prompt “bicycle”

Now that ICAD is over, I feel a bit lost. That’s okay, I’ll find myself again through other creations. In the meantime, here are this year’s cards in a pile, in their resting place and a look at all my index cards in their resting place.

Sad that #dyicad2025 is officially coming to a close. It’s been so fun! Well, and for me it will continue to be fun most of next month too, since I started so late.

An chain of interlinked hearts of different sizes and lines. One is a charm connected to one of the hearts on the chain.

Photo of all 61 Index-Card-A-Day cards.

Here's a photo of all 61 Index-Card-A-Day cards from June 1 to July 31. It was a good challenge to come up with something for each prompt and get it done in a day. The Bird enjoyed being the focus of each one. #dyicad2025 #inkart #done

A collage of predominantly pinks and reds, featuring a pink rotary phone and a bowl of raspberries on a background that includes white stars and circles on red, pink flowers on cream, a pattern of pink dots, and more. The text "you are lovely" is cozied up to five small gray circles featuring small red berries.

Cozy, delicious, and connected. What's not to love?

Last day (#61) of the Index-Card-A-Day challenge with the prompt 'love'. Using 'vanishing point' from #35 and, yes, I drew some impression of all 60 previous cards. #dyicad2025 #inkart. Great thanks to @tammy999.bsky.social

Pen and ink drawing of a bird in front of a theatre with BIRD on the marquee. Text: Better than a statue

Day 60 of the Index-Card-A-Day challenge with the prompt 'marquee'. Only one more until it's done. This one builds off the statue scene in #42 with the prompt 'bronze'. #dyicad2025 #inkart

A scene of Black-eyed Susans against a purple watercolor background. The flowers are inside a bold green and black frame. The frame sits in the midst of a background of strips of paper that radiate out to the edges of the canvas. The strips of paper are in shades of purple, green, and yellow, some with botanical motifs.

A movie theatre called Parksider with a marquee that reads: "Now playing: Duck Soup" and below "Coming soon: Godzilla". Above the marquee is Godzilla's foot starting to crush the theatre, with bits of building flying off. There's an apartment building on the right and an alley with building that has a door and a fire escape.

Did you hear
about the time
the sun ran away
to join the circus?
the moon told everyone
so the sun only hid
for a day.
