Picture of the Day ~ 01.08.16

This was my first attempt at "minimalist colors."   Normally, I'd use tons of colors on a design like this, but I wanted to try using just 3 colors after someone posted a design they had done with very few colors on FJ Colorists Unite.

Unfortunately, my plan didn't go quite how I wanted it to because 1/2 way through the page my pink sakura pen suddenly died with no warning :(    I have several Sakura sets so I figured if I picked another pink that was close in shade they would look similar.  Wrong again!   The pink I picked looked more than the purple I was using than pink.

At that point, I gave up and added a 4th color (yellow) to try and help the situation.   I'm not sure it actually helped, though. 

I still had fun coloring the page, so that's really all that matters and I don't think it looks too terrible.

It's really pretty, @Curious!  I wouldn't have realized that you had to change your plan for this.  I really like the minimal colours. It has way more impact!

I like the colors and agree that I wouldn't have known you had a problem with your original plan unless you mentioned it. Especially like the yellow and pink colors  :my_shy:

Thanks everyone :)

It's SO noticeable to me so I'm glad others think it looks ok.

      Wearing clothes for the next day to wear in bed to sleep in order to be “ready to go” when you wake up? That’s just nasty.

      I don’t feel properly awake and dressed in the mornings before I’ve had a shower and put on some fresh clean clothes. On the very few occasions when I fell asleep in street clothes (complete exhaustion) or didn’t put on clean clothes in the morning but stayed in my pyjamas (e.g. reeeeeally lazy weekend or sick), I felt yucky and there’s no way I would have gone out and about my day dressed like that,

      And I am in no way a clean freak. But I can’t imagine doing that on a regular basis.

      A baby named Dallas. FW has it down as a boy.

      The Swansons use D for boys and L for girls, so Dallas must be a boy. Their logic, not mine.

      Lana turned 48 back in December, so that was probably her last one.

      This is how Karissa saves money. It’s all pretty eyeroll worthy to me. If you want to save tons of money, stop having kids. That’s the biggest money saver of all.

      Did people know that Lauren Duggar's mom and dad had a 10th kid and just not know the name? If not, then it is a kid that we didn't know about. Dwain and Lana Swanson had their 10th kid sometime after 2019 per Fundie Wiki.  A baby named Dallas. FW has it down as a boy.

      We knew about the kid but not the name
