As usual, making it up as I go. My goal was to use a Pixie Powder, anything after that just happened.
This is a very cool powder; this one is mostly black but has other colors mixed in. I wasn't going for too grungy, but grunge happens. To minimize the grunge, I added the PP spray on top. I used the pens to emphasize certain things. This ends up being a one layer card, except for the card base. Very fun for me!
After visiting the Roosevelt home last spring, I have been in love with Eleanor Roosevelt (sentiment quote). If you haven't watched the PBS Ken Burns series about the Roosevelts, please do so. Such an interesting family and they have contributed so much to this country and the world.
