Index Card a Day 2020 (ICAD) Week Three

The ICAD challenge is still going strong and I am managing to complete one a day.  Above are Dandelion; Robot and Mustard Yellow.  Stamps, stencils, paint and embossing folders have been used for these.
Here are Six Word Story (The sky brightened and she smiled); Pause (I cut the stamp from an eraser and it is based on the pause symbol in music - thanks to Chris for that idea); Birdhouse and Geode.  These are mainly paint and stamps, with a bit of glitter on the geode. 
I have had to buy some more index cards this morning as the second set I used had a blue line at the top and it was affected by water/paint (as you can see in the geode card).
On to week four...

    The geode looks like what I know as a thunder egg.
    Keep creating - since it obviously brings you (and us) joy.
    Thank you.

      Thanks, EC. Apparently, a geode is a rock with a hollow in it often with crystal formations or growths inside, whereas a thunder egg is a specific formation of chalcedony, with agate, jasper or opal layers around it and is usually spherical (thanks to wikipedia - who knew?).
      I can safely promise to keep creating - it does bring me a lot of joy!
      Thank you so much for your continued support - it means a lot.
      Best wishes

    I love the dandelions! Its funny I love art or anything creative with dandelions on it, and the flower heads make beautiful photos but they are a pain in the garden aren't they!

      Thanks, sustainablemum. I love the delicacy of the dandelion flowers too, but am not so happy when they pop up in the path!
      Best wishes

      Thanks, Maria.
      This project is gradually giving me a very interesting collection of cards. I am really enjoying the challenge of using the word prompts - some are more difficult than others.
      Best wishes
