Tiny Pieces of Art in June

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:

So far I have made

Week 1

This used images from Stamperia, ink drips and splatter and a variety of metal bits.

Week 2

This used an old image from Gecko Galz, rub-ons from 49&Market, book paper, sewing thread and a metal key.

Week 3

Another image from Gecko Galz, decoupaged and layered with some clear acrylic in between.

This image is the freebie from the current
