Welcome to my art blog. Join me in exploring art through drawing, painting, art journaling and mixed media; Using different tools, supplies and techniques; And finding inspiration.
Hello creative friends. I hope everyone is having a good week. My week is going good. This past weekend I made a couple of ICADs with inspirational quotes on them. I found a book of index cards at Staples that were bound together with a ring and had a heavy plastic front and back cover. I thought this would be perfect for decorating the ICADs, add inspirational quotes to and then keep them all together in this book. I used gesso to the cards and then doodled in the wet gesso. I then used watercolor paints to add color to the cards. I cut some shapes from the Gelli printed papers I made last week and then looked on my Pinterest board for inspirational quotes I pinned to add to the cards. I finished decorating the cards with washi tape, Posca pens, distressing crayons and liquid pearls. Here are pictures of the cards I made.
And here is the video I recorded showing how I made these cards.
I had fun creating these and like the way they turned out. I am looking forward to decorating more of these cards. Have you made ICADs before? Thank you for stopping by. Until next time, Happy Creating.
