Index Card A Day 2017 - Day One

Hey everyone! It's ICAD time again!

What is ICAD?
It stands for Index Card a Day. Basically, for 61 ones, you create a piece of art on an index card. It can be as simple or as elaborate and you want. The goal is just to have a daily creative practice.
To see the prompts, and get all the info check out: https://daisyyellowart.com/icad-base/

There are prompts, but this year I got together with my friend Shelley and we came up with a list of quotes to use on our cards.

Today's quote is, "The mind is everything, what you think you become" - Buddha
