And Finally ... Week 52!

 Hello All! 

I have my final collaged index cards for 366 Somethings 2020 to show you today. I'm really going to miss doing these, but it's time for a rest.

Here are the final 9 cards...

I love my Christmas Day card, number 360, the words were so appropriate. Also 363 and 366 are favourites this week.

For now all of my cards are in two boxes. I can't decide what to do with them. Perhaps I'll put them all into a big scrapbook. It'll be interesting to look back at them, and to see how they progressed.

Thank you all for visiting and commenting on these ICADs, and on all of my posts this year. I've really appreciated your generous support dear friends.

Wishing you all a happy, creative, safe and healthy 2021!

366 Somethings - Week 49

 Hi Everyone! I hope you're all well, and not too stressed with Christmas preparations.

We met our daughter at a local park, for a brief walk at the weekend. She was up our way, meeting up with a couple of friends. She made the astute comment that I must be quite relieved to be having a quiet Christmas this year, as I usually get very stressed that everything has to be perfect for her and her brother's visit. She is quite right. We have bought fewer presents this year, will put up a few decorations, enjoy a nice meal, and get together with family and friends online. And we will be grateful for all the blessings we have.

Here are my week 49 collaged index cards.

You might guess that the little elves are part of an Advent calendar. It's a tea calendar with a lovely selection of herbal teas. I thought the brightly coloured teabag packets would be lovely to use on my Advent ICADS. And there's teabag papers on each one also, of course.

I think 340 is my favourite this week. What do you think?

Thank you so much for dropping by,

366 Somethings - Week 45

 Hi Everyone! Thank you very much for all the lovely comments you left for my Christmas cards yesterday! They really gave me a much needed lift.

Today I'm sharing my collaged index cards for week 45 of 366 Somethings. I'm also linking these to Leah's Art Every Day Month Day 10.

Do you have a favourite this week? I really like the last one 315, with its neutral tones, splash of blue, and textures. I hope you enjoy reading the found text too, they're from various books.

Thanks for dropping by,

366 Somethings - Week 44

 Hi Everyone!

Here are my little index card collages for week 44 of 366 Somethings.

I'm struggling to pick a favourite this week, what do you think? Maybe 306, with that big teabag moon.

They all have my favourite colours, leftovers from classes and a Christmas card session.

Wishing you all a happy and creative day,

366 Somethings - Week 43

 Hi Everyone!

Here's my index card collages for week 43 of the 366 Somethings challenge.

I think my favourite this week is the last one 301, closely followed by the first 295. Do you have a favourite?

Did you spot that I've passed the 300 mark? I can't believe I have 301 of these little collages...incredible!!!

Thank you so much for visiting today!

366 Somethings - Week 42

Hello Everyone! I don't know where the week's gone. I did manage to see some friends last week, meeting up for woodland walks, which was lovely. The hardest thing for me is not being able to see people, especially my lovely children. Thank goodness for facetime!

Here are my latest index card collages...

I had some watercolour paints out on my desk, and I used them on the last two cards, 293 & 294. I think they are my favourites this week, closely followed by the first one 288. The text on the last 2 was from Far From The Madding Crowd too, a favourite novel of mine. Have you got a favourite card this week?

Thank you so much for visiting,

keep safe and well,

366 Somethings - Week 41

 Hi Everyone! Hope you're all keeping safe and well. We both got our flu vaccinations on Sunday. My arm is still sore, but I'm relieved to have got it sorted.

I have another week of collaged index cards to share with you today. Here they are...

I think the first and last ones are my favourites this week. What do you think? The text on the last one is from one of my favourite books, The Return Of The King. Don't worry, I have another copy ;-)

Thanks for dropping by,
