On a side note . . . an amazing thing has been happening as this journal is progressing. I've noticed that my style seems to be changing a bit and, I've been more willing to experiment with new journaling techniques.
I had no idea when I started this project that creative freedom would present itself in the form of a 3"x5" card. They're small and inexpensive, and I've actually given myself permission to draw, doodle and play. It's a good thing!

Terri...those are delightful and look way more involved than a 3x5!! Love'em
I love your index cards! Do you gesso them first of did you get the unlined kind?
So creative!!!!
The link to the other new blog did not work for me. ;-((
I love these! Especially that little dog, he's so cute in that tea cup!!
I've seen the daisy yellow index card a day project ... But I must say yours have a real WOW factor ... As usual, I want to try it just because you make it look so dang fun :)
I can see the changes in your artwork Terri... it is somehow more 'loose' - isn't it a wonderful feeling when things like that happen?! Enjoy, enjoy.
Isn't is funny how the more art you create..the different roads it takes you down? Love your creations!
This index cards are absolutly beautiful. These colours, the mesages, the whimsy and fun in it are amazing.
I love, love,love your work
( and by the way a couple full of 12 year old students love it too, after I showed them your collages ;0)
Terri, you are so right!! When you work on pieces this small--you do have more freedom to experiment, and the things that you discover are wonderful. Keep going with these-they're so awesome!!
Great stuff, Terri! The "intentions" card really sings out to me. Maybe my subconscious is telling me something about me right now ;-)
So glad you shared all your index cards--they are really wonderful!!
These are all wonderful. I did a yer of these and found a really cool photo album to put them in. In the end the sum became a pretty large project.
Yours are wonderful. I love the King Charles Spaniel. He is so regal, the other that resonated with me was the Intentions one. All are fab, so glad you are having a good time with this. it definitely shines through.
Totally cool index cards!! love them and your evolving style...

Just Wow, really! I love the colours, the images, the fact that they are such individual treasures, yet so disposable. I have been feeling too jaded to do much creatively at the moment, but, you have inspired me to put down the computer and go to my desk!
They are all glorious Terri, the detail on each and everyone of them is amazing!
SWEET LOVE..your index cards are adrorable. I don't know how you do it..they are always the coolest art pieces on the blog block!!! You pay attention to every detail.
Love seeing your new cards Terri
Absolutely jaw dropping!

Восхищаюсь вашими работами! Красиво!
I was wondering, do you do both sides of your cards? Also was wondering what you use for white pens? I'm new to your site and WOW!!! TOTALLY inspired. Found you yesterday in the Somerset Art Journaling mag. Congratulations : )
WOW I'm speechless! Your cards are absolutly inspiring for me,all are fantastic, colorful and full of creativity, I'll try it also.
Have a nice weekend, hugs Anja
These are just great. I checked out your article in Somerset yesterday. Wonderful to see you in "print"! Congrats my friend. Enjoy "playing" this weekend.
Terri, these index cards are wonderful. I like the idea of doing a little art everyday for your creative spirit. This is exactly what I need to be doing.
Have a great day. Thanks for posting all your work, it helps 'wanna bes' like me get inspiration!
Sometimes all it takes is a bit of daily dedication to free yourself. Your index cards are pure energy and color. I was thrilled with the lovely comment you left on my post yesterday, but my color pages pale in comparison to your index cards. Truly gorgeous.
Wooohooo, just seen your fantabulous and scrumdidlyumptious creations in Somerset Art Journaling .... and so many pages too! Congratulations, my friend.
Oh, and of course, I am loving your decorated index cards so much.
Standing Ovation from my corner. :D

Wow, Terri! Your cards are spectacular. The dog in the tea cup caught my eye...he is my favorite!!
Thanks for the info on the blogging site!

Terri, these are all great! Isn't 3 x 5 wonderful?!!!!! Love the Spaniel.
I just adore these little cards! You know, your art is always so HAPPY! It just makes me smile. Every time. You need a really cool little box to put these in. Heading over to check out that art blog you posted about. Cheers, Kathy
Hi Terri...these are all great...it's amazing what you get on your cards...mini works of art!!!
Mary
This is amazing work?!! The colours are so vibrant, love them!!
Thanks for your lovely comment and wishes on my blog...

Terri, I'm amazed with the gorgeous index card art you've created. I think there is something about having a big stack of simple 3x5" cards that makes it easy to experiment... there's always another card tomorrow! Cheers to you for sticking with the challenge and for making it work for you.
Wow Terri!!!! I love all of these. It looks like a fun project. I might give this a try, but time is not on my side these days. I especially love the pup! Congrats on being published friend. I own a Terri Kahrs original!!!!
I really like the depth you're getting with these! Beautiful!
The cards look so good, where can I obtain some of them. I like the one with the little dog.
