ICAD 2016

My summer is quickly drawing to a close (with any luck, I’ll be starting my ‘big girl job’ a week from Monday), and I’ve been searching for a new creative outlet. I’m sure any creative has the same sort of anxieties about starting work in corporate America— will the monotony be stifling? Will I be able to find a creative outlet? How will I react to an environment based on deadlines and numbers?

ICAD is my response. The ICAD project (launched by Daisy Yellow, read more here) is encouragement to create something every day for a total of 61 days. Your creation must be hosted primarily within (or using) an index card. This tiny piece of art can follow any of the prompts given at the Daisy Yellow site or simply your own imagination.

For the remainder of the summer, I’ll be posting my weekly index card creations here in addition to my normal weekly posts. June is going to be a crazy month, so expect to hear a lot about the wedding, starting my new job, and our new adventures.
