(Yes, sometimes those annoying FB "improvements" will yield something worthwhile).
Fasten your seat belts, this one has lots of twists and turns!
After "Liking" a RI travel consultant
(because a friend had shared her photo gallery of vintage Naragansett hotel post cards)
some suggestions for other Pages came up (new thing that I never saw until this morning).
I hovered over the target avatar and it displayed:
Arts/Humanities?
HAD to click on it! It was a TARGET! (Colorscope FB Page)
Not only a target, but an ASTROLOGICAL TARGET!!!

What can I say, they are my favorite colors... I HAD to create a repeat with them! And mock it up on myself!
I located this photo from a shopping expedition in Venice CA from 2011 -- look how it matches "my" target colors so perfectly!
I first did some Photoshop [PSD] retouching and got rid of the red + blue motifs
I'm not showing you that because it was fast + sloppy
Then I went over to Illustrator [AI] and created my repeat:
are you hypnotized yet? It's no genius repeat, but it'll do |
(I used the pen tool -- I did it in AI because it's easier to scale + rotate repeats in AI vs PSD)
The green happened from it being 3 layers of print with a transparency effect applied. I was OK with it |
This is my final opus:
ADORE IT!!! The color didn't shift in the same way, OK by me |
I'm linking up with Patti's Visible Monday -- I think I'll be stopping traffic with this one!
Meanwhile, what's your Astro Target?
