I was so excited to see this week's Just Add Ink #289 to add music! I'm combining it with Create With Connie & Mary #382's colors for an extra boost! I think I'll use this fun layered sketch from Retro Sketch #191, too...
So, here we are. I very carefully thought out what elements I wanted to play with: for music, I pulled out my beloved but retired Rejoicing With You, and I knew I wanted to use gold rather than Delightful Dijon. Then I browsed for some likely Island Indigo DSP. And I played. And flipped things around. And tinkered. And tweaked. And alas, here we still are, lol. So, no point beating around the bush about it - I actually don't like this card that much. I don't think I executed the color challenge very well, or, maybe I just don't dig it that much - ack! Which is surprising, with purple being my favorite color and all. Poor Elegant Eggplant just doesn't get enough play-time, IMO! Anyway, I always promised to put it all out there, the good, the bad, and the less-than-attractive, lol, so that's what I'm doing! Yikes! Be joyful!
