I'm going to try to play along too! It's small enough that I may be able to manage to keep up.

Very cool! I will do my best to keep up but I have a baby due in July so we will see what happens :)

05.28.2011 | Unregistered CommenterAmber L.

Love this idea! Now I've got a camera again, I'll try and keep up with this too :)

I love it! I've been trying to push myself to sketch, but have found way too many reasons to avoid it. This sounds so do-able!

05.29.2011 | Unregistered CommenterPaula

What a great idea! I'm definitely going to pick some index cards up this week and hopefully my kids will want to join in this summer!

05.29.2011 | Unregistered CommenterVerna

What a cool idea! I love it, and I'm defiantly going to participate. I posted a link back to your post on my blog here:

First thought: Awesome idea! Second thought: This is already my life! It started with writing scene ideas (for novels), but index cards are now my all-purpose writing, doodling, and organizing go-to. Once you pop, you can't stop... or something.

05.31.2011 | Unregistered CommenterKris

What a brilliant idea! This is exactly the small-scale project I was looking for to get myself doing something creative again. I don't have index cards handy, but I plan to re-use a small Moleskine daily planner from 2009, so it'll be a page a day. It's about the size of an index card. I think I can handle this!

does our work become your work once submitted

06.1.2011 | Unregistered Commenterumm

umm, If you upload photos to flickr they are still your photos and this does not transfer copyright. I hope this helps!

Cruising your site today Tammy.... this is a GREAT project!! And one that I actually feel like I might be able to squeeze in! I'm already a little behind...

06.2.2011 | Unregistered CommenterDar Hosta

All: You aren't behind unless you start AFTER June 16. The challenge goes through the end of August.

06.2.2011 | Registered Commentergypsy

Not sure where my comment went saying I'm in! No worries... I'm in on iCad :) as of the 16th. I'm posing my first cards today tho' now that I've taken piccies :) Looking forward so much to seeing all the cards and having my own complete stack at the end. I've put your badge on my sidebar at the very top.
