Not a lot different from the last time I shared because I have been

Tiny Pieces of Art - August

  At the beginning of the year I started a year long challenge courtesy of Linda Pearson on Facebook

I decided to use index cards as I had a little booklet of these in my stash. 

I like this format as I have been doing the Index Card a Day Challenge during June and July for some years now.

This is how far I have got so far:


This month's prompts are as follows:


Week 1

This was inspired by Ollie's favourites!


Week 2

Images from Gecko Galz.


Week 3

I am happy to say I am out of hospital after rehab following my hip replacement - so I managed to do my last two August TPAs.


I have used images from Conjurer of Dreams - Superheroes Pool party.
Untying the ribbon reveals Spiderman.


Opening the flap reveals Superman and Batman.
On the back of the flap is a photo of my daughter and I behind one of those boards with holes in to put your faces behind.



Week 4

Inspired by Picasso. The top face is a Tim Holtz die set. The other images I have drawn.


Happy Crafting!
