Reinker Splash card

I made a card - finally. It seems like so much of my time has been spent trying to do projects I have to do rather than making things I want to make. Not that I haven't had fun, but any time there is a constraint placed on me, it makes it so much harder for me to make something. Why do you suppose that it?

This card uses all SU! stuff except the base cardstock (Malmero Perle) and the pearl brads. I haven't a clue what colors I used on this. I know one was Cameo coral, and I think Barely Banana, but the blue is escaping me. When it mixed with the other colors, it turned funky colors. The technique is from Technique Junkies and it's called Reinker Splash. It was easy to do, which is one of my prerequisites. Most of what I do is easy - has to be to keep my attention long enough.

The nasty flu has hit my home. Everyone here has had it except me. I've been freebasing Vitamin C and hoping like crazy I don't get sick. Dylan is just getting over a fever that kept spiking despite medication, and Travis has it now. Dustin and Terry didn't get a fever like the other two boys. Angela was sick for a long time, but everyone else got over it in a few days. I have my fingers crossed that it misses me. I have better things to do!
