Grab a pack of index cards and give it a try. I did. It's fun and not that difficult. There are 61 days of prompts that start on June 1st and go right up to the end of July. You don't have to follow the prompts if you don't want to, the only real requirement is that your "creation" of the day is done on an index card no larger than 4 x 6. Blank, lined, graph, or even index dividers are okay. Paint, markers, pencils, pens, inks, collage, stencil, watercolor, draw, tangle - whatever you're comfortable with or maybe giving something new a try. It's a tiny canvas to fill and you can fill it however you want.
I've done my title card as a warm up. I had this roll of washi tape on my desk at work and a brand new package of highlighters. I tried something new with the bottom portion of the card. I took a roll of masking tape and folded back a section of about 1 1/2" onto itself to expose the sticky side. Then I dabbed the markers onto the sticky portion and then rolled that over the black paper. I just kept reinking it ever so often and when the tape was too "tired" I just peeled it off and started with a new piece.
If you're looking for something to get your creative juices going to start off the summer, or to my southern hemisphere friends - to begin the winter, go ahead and jump in. Here's the link to the FAQ page http://daisyyellowart.com/icad/icad-faq.html.
...I might give this a go! I will buy some 3x5" index cards while I am out today and see what happens! You never know what great idea's might occur! I went to the site to have a look and it sounds like FUN! Something fun to do on a cold winters day!
