Happy Earth Day! Today has not gone smoothly. My gmail account was hacked and spammed all my contacts during the middle of the night. A lot of you got a wacky email from me. Ugh!I made this card for Kristina's 1-layer (no embellishment) challenge. I've never made a 1-layer card...ever!
We've been enjoying some days off for Spring Break. Today was a break in the rain, so I took a picture of my card near a sunny window.
When you were a kid, did you do this type of squiggly drawings on a piece of paper and then color them in with Crayons or markers? Well, I thought I was alone on this until I saw a YouTube video by Courtney and she mentioned the same. Well, instead of Crayons, I used my growing supply of Copic markers. I went to a stamping convention on Saturday and I tripled my collection! Well, that was easy to do since I only owned 3 Copics before. Haha!
Thanks for stopping by!

Love the modern, abstract feel of your card! I SO used to do the squiggly line thing and colour in the spaces. In fact, I did a whole series of art pieces with them for my Senior art class in high school. I made my squiggly lines out of words--so there was always a hidden message in my design. Your card brought back some fond memories--thanks :)
Oh wow, I love this, it's SO COOL! :)
