Brightness


I couldn't figure out how some people are able to mix such nice bright colors.  When I mix colors they get darker and sometimes muddy.  I did figure out the muddy thing...turns out that's caused by mixing complimentary colors.  But I couldn't figure out the brightness thing until I realized....they are buying bright paint!  Duh!  So I ran to Joann's and bought 5 bottles of cheap acrylic paint in bright, bright colors.  Aha!  Bright!

I just needed to throw a quick card together today because I have a long to do list (and I'm already behind!) so finally broke open the bright paints and just threw them randomly on the card and then hit it with the Pitt pen.  Awesome for something that wasn't intended to be anything at all.  

Off to tackle my list now...but proud I got in my 15 minutes of creativity today.
