back those images with black or dark cobalt to make those images pop more...
Thats what I usually do and I did that with a few. But I wanted to see the color swirls from mixing colors behind the image. You can still see the image really well in person plus they had cool colors behind it. The terrapins and the jerry face all ready got snagged up @ all good this last weekend :)
Learned alot and had alot of fun @ the CO project last weekend and decided to come home and go for it on a few things. Im also excited about SCI @ red rocks this weekend!
