Final bid 1380 credits. This card will live in Wisconsin. 

So I started ink today. I also had a migraine that pretty much killed my whole day. In addition to that I am sick with a cold that is centered in my throat and ears. I was just about to write how the conditions I don't like translated into a card I didn't like, when I realized the card could be revered. I like it much more now that it has multiple options and that I didn't mean for it to :) I'm also feeling better thanks to one of my card winners on Listia who caught the card before I pulled it down to adjust it into a reversible card. He was going to say how much he liked it and that made me feel much better. So thank you to csa3053 for the encouragement!

Ink is hard for me since it's not erasable. The lines get thicker and thicker as I try to keep them smooth and straight. It gets blocky and chunky at places I didn't intend it to. I see everything that I didn't want to do but had to work with. In art school we were told not to mention these points since the audience won't know all that... but for the sake of honest blogging on my first ink card you get to hear it. 

Trying to draw straight with a headache is not easy at all. So perhaps to think positively considering the day it's pretty good after all.

He looks like someone from Mardi Grass (not sure how to spell that)
