A Brushed Rainbow Card

Hello Lovelies

I'm feeling that thing which happens to folks my age. I want time to slow the heck down. Has a week really just passed? That was truly a blink of an eye. Maybe it's because I've been super industrious and busy this week. Plus I spent way too many of my spare hours watching videos from this year's CHA.

The full spectrum is being embraced.

Feels good to be using a whole variety of inks on one card.
